Theo Parrish: Falling Up 2013 (Carl Craig) Vinyl 12"

Much needed repress from Third Ear Recordings! Pretty much an instant classic when it first dropped, Carl Craig's remix of Theo Parrish's "Falling Up" has been hard to get and in demand ever since. The label had the legendary Stefan 'Pole' Betke remaster both tracks for this pressing. Here's what we had to say when we first carried the single sided 10" of Craig's remix: After causing many bidding wars on ebay and chaos on message boards, we finally got a restock on this already classic Theo Parrish single sided 10-inch from Japan's Third Ear Recordings. The original track was one of my favorites off the superb Detroit Beatdown triple pack compilation LP, but Mr. Craig, one of the best remixers in the world, brings a whole new dimension to it, adding more kick, tons of boompty business, and sounds that will cause plenty of ass shakin' on the floors, just what the original was missing. Don't miss out on this one - it's truly a gem and is being caned all over the world. Recommended.
