Face The Music/Pushin' Too Hard - Gerd Janson & Elado Edits

Description

There comes a time in every record's life when it has to face the music. Some do it gracefully, others need a little push. Master Plan, together with Tony “Boom Boom” Badea, apparently decided to do both. Originally conceived in a time when dance music was still figuring out what to call itself, "Face The Music" and "Pushin' Too Hard" are back for another round. Not that they ever asked to retire. And who are we to argue? Enter Elado, a man with a healthy disregard for the expiration dates of records, who takes on both titles and makes a convincing case for leaving the past where it belongs: on the dance floor. Meanwhile, Gerd Janson approaches "Face The Music" from three different angles. The Club Edit does what it says on the tin, provided the tin comes with a decent sound system. Acabeats leaves room for interpretation, intervention and other DJ-related activities. Drumbeats gets straight to the point. Sometimes the rhythm is the message. Five versions, two sides, one Master Plan. No grand scheme necessary. As the saying goes: if you can't face the music, you might as well dance to it.
