Rhythim Is Rhythim - Beyond The Dance (Cult Mix)

My favourite bit of work by Derrick May, alongside R-Tyme's 'R Theme'. Monolithic orchestral stabs building and arching over a stream of frosty hi-hats, looping for so long that the beat drop is almost an anticlimax - but still an amazing example of what dance music could be at the time (with May introducing a more lucid and psychedelic warmth to the newly-established Techno genre) and it's unconventional percussion sounds prescient 20 years later with everyone bored of more traditional snares and claps in techno for so long.
