The “Album Preview EP” is Claude VonStroke’s long awaited follow-up to last summer’s smash, “Deep Throat” which sold through 7 pressings and is still selling strong. Claude VonStroke is positioned for an explosion this year and his debut album, “Beware of the Bird” will be the catalyst. On the A - “The Whistler” is Detroit booty meets Jiminy Cricket; a memorable hook that sticks to your shoes long after you’ve left the club. It has already generated complete mania at the biggest parties in San Francisco and now has big international support from the UK crowd like Damian Lazarus and Nic Fanciulli.
The B is just as deadly, but deep and sultry, like an old Carl Craig track re-worked and updated for 2006. “Who’s Afraid of Detroit” has the makings of a deep classic anthem and is being dropped by everyone from Paul Woolford to Ben Watt. It is an homage to Claude’s hometown Detroit, the city that inspired his music career.
