Sales Notes:
Future Beat Investigators, the new project from DJ Lil Tony (Nuspirit Helsinki) and his two partners Roberto Rodriguez (Shk) and Kimmo Oksanen have gained a massive hype from some of the heavyweights within electronic dance scene before they even had any music released. Mad Mike (UR), ¬me (Sonar), Prince Thomas, Sasse (Mood Music) and Heidi (Get Physical) have all praised their productions. Or like Trickski (Sonar) said about their first single Forthosewhoknow Its like my wet dream, track of the year! But if Forthosewhoknow with its disco and Detroit influences is the big hit dont miss out on the more straight up minimal Detroit house cut on the flip entitled Dark Suite. Perfect for the bigger sound systems and will surely rock clubs both sides of the Atlantic.
The Future Beat Investigators sound is heavily influenced by Detroit techno and the current Berlin minimal sound, as well as house and disco pioneers such as Harvey, Ron Hardy, Ron Trent, Chez Damier, Daniele Baldelli, Theo Parrish and Moodymann, with a measure of Marvin Gaye and Fela Kuti thrown in and finally topped with some Basic Channel style dub influences.
Real music!

Forthosewhoknow is the one! Got really good feedback from my show listeners. keep 'em coming
Raul Saaremets, Estonia
Thank you for the FBI tune - receiving fantastic feedback. Dropped "Forthosewhoknow" on last Fridays show - such a great tune. I agree, very Detroit and very, very good.
Paul Gamblin Black & Blue(RTRFM 92.1) & Heavy Mannas Radio Shows , Australia
Impressive, both of them!! Especially the lead track which I will play in the next P3 Dans. Thank you
Johanna Olofsson, P3 Dans (Sweden)
³The best Raw Fusion 12 in quite some time comes in the shape of this broody
techno rub from the Future Beat investigators sounding as good as the
Detroit and Chicago golden era it covets. Planet E missed a trick not
putting this out themselves! Wide ranging DJ support comes from the likes of
Domu, Gilles Peterson, Benji B, Rainer Truby, Luke Solomon etc... etc...²
Fat City Records / Manchester
Radio support by:
Gilles Peterson (BBC)
Benji-B (BBC 1xtra)

iha jeppis träkkejä joo
Piccadilly Recordsin `Record of the week`
Helsinki's Future Beat Investigators cross the Baltic Sea to see Raw Fusion's Mad Mats at home in Stockholm, carrying with them the mastertapes to this ace tech-house EP. "Forthosewhoknow" is a cutting edge piece of moody techno-house with krispy drums and a barely concealed menace that checks productions by Henrik Schwarz and Carl Craig. In a clear debt to Craig's mix of Theo Parrish "Falling Up" it takes half of the runtime for this psycho-sonic noise to reach its pinnacle, whereupon the beat changes and Detroit chords descend from heaven. In true B-side fashion "Dark Suite" pulls no punches and gets down to the business of getting down.
