ETI
Oboro Records

To really understand the San Francisco scene you have to go back, way back, to the days of Wicked, Come-Unity, and the whole free party movement. ETI were, and still are, a part of this movement, as integral as DiY and Tonka are to the scene in the U.K. The brainchild of Eric James and Buna, ETI celebrated the eighth anniversary of longstanding club night Come-Unity with this stunning live set.

The set incorporates tracks dating back from '96 all the way through to '99. The classic, "20 Minutes Of Disco Glory," produced in cahoots with Wicked/Grayhound label boss DJ Garth, and released on the same label, is featured in two mixes, both "Acid Rock" and "Organ Grinder." Other highlights include the liquid, acidic, "Soulfuric" produced by Los Diablos Locos, "4th Of July" with Liana Young's breathtaking vocals, and last but by no means least, the uptempo, dub house cover of Bob Marley's classic "Exodus." All in all, a well rounded and super funky insight into the real house sound of San Francisco.
