Bugged Out presents Suck My Deck by Ivan Smagghe

Along with Tiefschwarz, Ivan (one half of Black Strobe) is one of them producers and D.J.s currently part of a very exciting scene. I don't really know what you would call it, I would like to avoid using the term 'electro-house' because that sounds like one of those sub-genres the media have made up that will soon turn into a passing fad. It doesn't really matter what you call it - I mean its techno, its house, its electro, its acid - its everything! Its just quality dance music. Ivan keeps it interesting all the way through with colourful and energetic tracks like the crazy 'Splitting atoms' and Tiesfchwarz's amazing remix of phoniques 'the red dress'.This is the real deal, its one of them mixes which seems to capture all the spirit of acid house and combines all the best elements of dance music from the past to the present, whilst managing to keep it sounding fresh and futuristic. Flawless

After the previous Bugged Out! compilations were somewhat of a let down for me(though im not diss'in them totally, just didnt live up to what i expected), Ivan slams tune after tune of fresh, original material that combines the hype of electro/electro clash with a dip your head down and groove feel throughout. This release undoubtably will put Mr Smagghe more firmly on the underground map.
