Only a handful of releases exist from Red Seal, but it's quality over quantity that is on display with these guys.The 1996 original was released on Rob's Records, a label founded by the legendary Rob Gretton (RIP), former Joy Divisionand New Order manager, as well as Factory Records and Hacienda co-owner. Penned by Red Seal and produced byMartin Moscrop, of A Certain Ratio fame, this 3 tracker would set the World's dancefloors alight and become a much laudedand bonafide classic.'Spinning Top' kicks off with flanged hats and dark brooding synths, the breakbeat is tough and delivers a potent punch.The wam analogue bass keeps the track moving throughout, the distinctive lead line and arpeggios build and dropin all the right places. 'Twister' continues the vibe, the heavy weight bass and top drawer percussion deliver the funk.The deft synth programming gives this track a lighter feel, but is no less energetic. Finally 'Hula Loop' heads off into trippedout acid territory, the break beats roll, and the infectious 303 undulates in a way that both captivates and enthralls.This EP is packed with peak time heat, an essential rarity sought after by diggers around the globe. Unavailable for decades,a repress has most definitely been long overdue. 'Spinning Top' has been legitimately re-released with the full involvementof Red Seal, lovingly remastered by London's Curve Pusher from the original sources especially for Mint Condition. 100% legit,licensed and released. Dug, remastered, repackaged and brought to you by the caring folks at your favorite reissue label -Mint Condition!!
