This is one of those Ep's that I have for a long time - it was released on may - but don't payed the atention it deserves. When i listened it today it seemed different, it had a meaning, Mandarine Girl captured my senses... a great hypnotic melody and always a progressive construction, one of the tracks of the year (the beat makes you remember andre kraml - safari _ james holden remix). After listening to it i was afraid that the other two tracks weren't that good, but they really are... a bit of acid, a bit of electro and always brilliant productions!

‘Mandarine Girl’ was inspired by a special night they shared in 1993, at Sven Vath’s legendary techno club The Omen. There Walter encountered a smiling beauty who came out of the writhing crowds and put something in his mouth, a sweet segment of juicy mandarine, then with a look she danced away never to be seen again.
