Reviews
"A lost treasure, a lost gem." Yogi Haughton, DJmag on Throwback 87 by Gene Hunt featuring Ron Hardy
"'Throwback 87' is unbelievably jacking." Nick Chacona, XLR8R
"Coming on like an early Derrick Carter after a night out in Detroit." 4/5, Jez Torrance, International DJ on Gene Hunt's Chilites
""Chilites" is a piece that I'm going to put down in the elementary textbook of House Music Tracks 101: this is how you make an instrumental track (...) Learn from the master: Gene makes the instruments sing." Chain, 5 Magazine on Gene Hunt's Chilites
"I think you'd have to put it solidly in the upper tier of classic acid tracks, even if it came to us - by way of Sweden - twenty years later." Chain, 5 Magazine on Throwback 87 by Gene Hunt featuring Ron Hardy
"A bouncy groover that will have fans of that mid-'90s deep Chicago sound psyched." Nick Chacona, XLR8R on Gene Hunt's Chilites
"Superbly infectious deep house groove that gets into your head and stays there. This will be around for quite a while. Full support from me. 9/10" Dean Facer (CRMK 89,8 FM, DJmag Hype chart contributor) on Gene Hunt's Chilites
"This is another stylish release on the quality "Rucksack" label from Sweden. I have started playing this already and it will be used a lot in my DJ sets, worldwide and on my weekly radio show." (Rating: 5 out of 5) Dean Facer (CRMK 89,8 FM, DJmag Hype chart contributor) on Rucksack Arkestra's Kraut Haus at Download.com
"This month's pick (...) a blazing four song EP", Chain, 5 Magazine on Twisted House EP (K-Alexi/Jivaro)
"Promising debut release for this new Swedish label out of Malmö. (4/5)" Klaus Boss (HiFly.dk) on Twisted House EP (K-Alexi/Jivaro)
