- Dutch Dj San and production partner Sebastian Moore hook up for this first release of 2006 from Japanese imprint 19box recordings.
High stakes gets two cuts,the main being the Original mix holding a tight meld of claps and hypnotic rhythms to first cut a groove.Smooth chord stabs then begin to control the pace while a delaying synthline gets tweaked ontop,providing a mesmerising angle.The beat drops out at the break seeing a warpy pianoline taking over while spatial fx enhance the sterodic house vibe that kicks in once more.
Belgium's Kobbe teams up with Austin Leeds on the re-hash and instantly turn it around to something chunky as hell,emanating the originals clip-clopety percussion and uplifting chords over a toughened beat.Added to this is a steady bassline,vocals which are added intermittently as are subtle twinkling melodies,interchanging and culminating in a build up to re-invigorate the dancefloor.
