Another set of fine house reworks and re-edits in this Strobelight Honey series. Side A offers up an edit of Modern Mechanical Music’s “Persia”, which is the kind of mid 80s fusion of electro-dance and that new fangled Chicago house music surely a massive cut at the Warehouse and Music Box… Next we have another variation on Bill Withers’ perennial favourite “Who Is He (And What Is He To You)?”, this time featuring proper big-lunged diva vocals and a stripped-down, jackin’ Chi-town house backing track. Lastly “Boom Combined” keeps the Chicago theme going with more of those Roland 808 primed 4/4s.
