In 1994 the Vienna-based project iO from Patrick Pulsinger, Erdem
Tunakan, Umberto Gollini and Gerhard Potuznik released a series of
12 inches called Attack, Decay, Sustain and Release on their
legendary Cheap Records imprint.
While most of the tracks where minimalistic Detroit-influenced
Techno, one particular piece stuck out. Claire!
Not only for its mid tempo around 110 bpm, but mostly for the mix of
jazz chords, a funky sample-based groove and a bone dry 909.
Here was a tune bridging the gaps between Techno, Trip Hop and House Music.
Shortly after the release of the full album containing all previous 12 inches, Claire was licensed to Mo’Wax Records in London.
With an even broader audience it was received in a whole different
context and became an instant favorite amongst DJs from different
genres around the globe and a stone cold classic which is still loved
today.

Like relics of times passed – a bygone era where the free party reigned supreme – this is a union forged out of a mutual affinity for trippy dancefloor dynamics and live performance.Rapturous and ecstatic, both originals evoke pure club hedonism. Sensual, sultry gear made of euphoric melodrama, close sweat and lysergic throb.
