Field of Dreams is Al Mackenzie and Chris Kentish -The Birmingham pair behind Field of Dreams have a rich musical history which takes in national chart toppers alongside underground releases for the likes of Pleasure Unit and their own eponymously titled imprint. Together they have been turning out material that soundtracks ALFOS and other discerning dancefloors, including their stellar remix of Les Crocodiles’ ‘La Nuit Des Tropiques’. The fantastic ‘Rebuild’ is a straight up acid house stomper with a strong message for the times. In the band’s own words, “It pays homage to the classic Chicago records of the past but with a futuristic twist. Being long-time fans of the ALFOS sound and ethos, releasing the track on Tici Taci - a label synonymous with the night - is a great privilege.”
Over the course of seven minutes the rugged drums and slapping hits come to life with an eco-system of sci-fi effects and alien synths as the groove drives forward. Darkened vocals recall early house music and make this a perfectly rough and ready chugger that really goes off once the snaking acid line appears. The Deconstructed Mix is a super slowed down dubquake that will rattle walls, ribs and fillings as the crisp hits and warped bass all encourage you to do slow motion gymnastics. This is a brilliant, heavily dubbed out, macho disco prowler that is not to be ignored.
