Chicagoan Boo Williams begins 2015 with a bang, delivering an EP of Freaky Teck jams – his tag for cuts that join the dots between jacking Chicago techno, yearning deep house and relentless Detroit techno. It’s a formula that guarantees thrills, from the wide-eyed, chiming positivity of opener “Charming Echoes”, to the enveloping, acid-laden pump of closer “The Banger”. Best of all, though, is “Freaky”, a throbbing techno jam blessed with a rough Italo-style bassline and enough deep house elements (chords, electronics, melodies).
