«91+ Ahead Session 1.5» is an odd charmer: Positively jubilant, it features a screechy trumpet sample over a raw and stomping drum groove. This track – released last autumn on the Plak imprint – would have marched straight into the ROOF.FM best list of 2008, had we ever compiled such a list. Conceived by one Stef Chaton, the release is typical for the fine dance aesthetics this Geneva artist has been promoting and encouraging with his Plak label and the equally-named record store (which is one of the few remaining quality outlets in Switzerland). Uniting recent burners by Levon Vincent or Efdemin with the legacy of Relief and Nu Groove, Chaton’s mix for ROOF.FM elegantly unfolds in the hazy borderzone between classicist house and vintage techno.
