SHREM'S DOUBLE TROUBLE: "THE WHEEL" - The Miracles Club /// "TELL ME WHEN THE FEVER ENDED" - Electribe 101

There is 23 years between those two tracks and a wonderful symbiosis of house beats, anthemic melodies and flamboyant aura of the underground dance scene. The Miracles Club, my most cherished of all current American dance acts, returns with the phenomenal "The Wheel" announcing the arrival of their first compilation "Ecstasy" featuring some of the other darlings of house I have been praising here a lot as well - Discodromo, Alexis Blair Penney or Emotion II Emotion. The track's early 90's atmosphere reminded me of some of the work by Electribe 101. "Tell Me When The Fever Ended" was the Birmingham collective's most accomplished single in my opinion. Here it is in its full glory with Billie Ray Martin's sensational vocal performance.
