Arcade Lover - 'Fantasy Lines'

Written and Produced by Darshan Jesrani and Dan Balis. Published by Copyright Control

The world was a different place in 2006, the last time Tirk put out a label comp (TIRK01). Obama had just become a Senator; the bankers still had their snouts in each others' troughs, not the taxpayers pockets, Deadmau5 didn't exist, three times as many record shops did. Minimal still sounded vaguely edgy and interesting, disco was the preserve of thirty year old men with beards, Annie Mac was about to discover Dubstep...

Now we've got Radio One jocks devoting half their shows to Aeroplane mixes, and "edits" in danger of becoming a genre itself, and just as record sales head ever closer to what must finally be the bottom of the sales curve, the spirit of disco finally rises again. Yep, there's going to be no white horses or hanging out with Bianca and Truman Capote, it's all forgotten basements in Dalston and cardigans from Primark this time round. And the music... there's always the music.

Whether it's Terje chopping up Chaz Jankel into piano scream up heaven, or new Russian lads Acos Coolkas creating ice cool electronic house, Prins Thomas adding Scando swing to Sorcerer's West Coast lounge tackle, Richard Sen going disco-psyche on Brad Vachal, Kelpe taking Architeq’s glistening glitchtonica for a warm and fuzzy slo mo bath, Hercules getting tracky on another Chas J track, or Forty Thieves adding West Coast bump to Morten Sorensens timeless 'Start Something'.we've again been lucky to work with some of the worlds better artists over the last couple of years, and couldn’t be more happy to round em' up and show them off as a 2 x cd set on Tirk 02, before striding off into what promises to be an , um, "challenging" 2009.
