ITTY02: Dangerous Goods – Special Love


12″ with printed sleeve, stickers, risograph insert, and optional print.
Released: December 2022

For the second outing on I Travel to You we bring you the debut release by Dangerous Goods, a duo from Norwich-Manchester who met through a shared love of music, synths and dancing. Sourcing inspiration from 90s house gems and 80s electro, these three original tracks have been pressed at 45rpm and will take you from dusk to dawn.

Special Love is a future classic – bringing back thudding 90s flute house, paired with shuffling snare patter, swung hats and a killer female vocal. From the moment the chords and vocal hit you’ll know what special love is.

The flip takes you further back with funky basslines and tight 80s electro drums, started in 2013 Breakout was one of the duo’s first tracks, channelling Paul Hardcastle here to great effect. Gritty kicks and a huge SH-101 bassline introduce Theme, building with soaring melodies before dropping into a set closing anthem.

Equipment used: Boss Dr-110, Korg Minilogue, Korg Z1, MFB Tanzmaus, Roland SH-101, Roland Alpha Juno, Roland D-50, Roland Juno 106, Roland Jupiter 6, Roland TR-08, Yamaha DX21, Yamaha DX7.
