UR – Knights Of The Jaguar EP 12″
One of the most iconic Detroit techno releases! “Jaguar” is a dreamy, anthemic, hands-in-the-air sort of tune that continually propels forward, much like the relentless musical energy running through the Motor City. “Ascension” is a tougher 909 drum machine beatdown with filtered atmospherics.
“Originally released in 1999; by DJ Rolando aka The Aztec Mystic, the Knights Of The Jaguar EP has been credited to Underground Resistance (UR) ever since a 2005 reissue. Whoever’s behind this thing, what’s for certain is that both ‘Jaguar’ and ‘Ascension’ are some of the most colourful techno jams to have ever come out of Detroit. The slinky rhythms of the former help to bolster its stirring cinematic synths while ‘Ascension’s looping fourth-world groove is positively dreamy.”
