*My oh my oh my. Has there been a more anticipated release this year??? What we have here are four LP’s and a bonus 7" of classic, untouchable, unobtainable, UTTERY IMMENSE tracks from Anthony ‘Shake’ Shakir from the Frictional vaults – all of them long long long unavailable on any format and even including a previously unreleased track, making for a tally of 15 tracks – every single one an absolute treasure* Detroit fiends, your prayers have been answered! A healthy proportion of the groundbreaking house and techno credited to Anthony "Shake" Shakir has been lovingly compiled as ‘Frictionalism 1994-2009’, remastering and regrouping some of the most essential (and hugely underrated) electronic tracks of a generation for an extensive 4 x 12" + 7" vinyl set limited to only 750 copies for the world. Shake’s influence is irrevocably written through the last 20 years of dance music history. From his earliest roles cutting tape and assisting the earliest productions of Derrick May and Juan Atkins, to managing the office of Metroplex and appearing on the seminal ‘Techno! The New Dance Sound Of Detroit’ compilation, his integral participation in a major musical movement is hugely respected by those in the know, but criminally underappreciated by nearly everyone else. These 15 tracks go a long way to redress the balance, giving credence to an artist hailed as a massive influence by everyone from Autechre to Smith ‘n Hack or T++ to Matthew Herbert. The guy is simply a rhythm master in the truest sense of the word. His beats are crafted with a funky sleight-of-hand and inimitable flex that blatantly comes from his past, splicing inches of tape and manipulating hardware, while also informed by a knowledge of the rhythm mechanics that make up the classic soul, disco, industrial and synth music which coalesced into techno and house around early 80’s Detroit and Chicago. Whether it’s the filtered jack beats of ‘The Floor Filler’, the electric gremlins weaved into the disco magic of ‘…Like A Dream’ or the percolatin’ trademark ‘Frictionalized’, Shake sets his own agenda built on masterful sampling and edit techniques. It’s this innate understanding, alloyed with the ebullient personality that imbues his tracks with so much melodic character, which makes them fearsomely effective dancefloor tools, and charmingly unique artifacts of a modern black art. A triple CD and digital release will follow in the coming months, but right now this is about the most essential set of tracks you can lay your hands on, finally untethered from logistical wranglings to hopefully influence a new generation of beat makers and breakers in the fields of dubstep, hiphop, post-garage, House and Techno that owe this dude so much. Hugely Recommended – seriously – do not miss this.

An EMG release. Enjoy :)
