A label synonymous with a distinct flavour of house sweeping Italy in the 90s, the prolific Palmares Records discography is a gold mine of goodness from sun-kissed, italo house cuts to rave-channelling raucousness. Axe Corners 'Tortuga' four tracker is one such example of that latter direction and with originals trading hands for up to £150 it's high time a remastered, reissue landed.A classic of the era, balancing breakbeat-laced, rave and hardcore sensibilities with a deft Italian flair. Four tracks produced by a quartet of some of the most masterful minds of the Italo house sound Alex Neri, Marco Baroni, Adriano Dodici and Pietro Pieretti.OUT-SLD opens, a warehouse wall shaker, with twisted top lines and a hardcore infused underbelly. IN-SLD turns it into a fever pitch, acid-laden warper atmospheric organs and all.On the flip BAD-SLD has more of the Riviera feel to it, classic keys drenching this in warmer rays, as SLD-EFFECTS takes the closing spot - a stripped back, driving groover.
