ts not often a record of this magnitude drops into Phonica. 2 original Derrick May productions from 1987 - never before released - shelved from a Pheerce Citi (a KMS off shoot) acetate and forgotten till this day. These limited edition of 300 units 'Acetate' versions of these undiscovered gems are to be sold exclusively through Phonica, features the original 'Acetate' artwork from the 1987 studio session. Re recorded and pitched up elements of 'The Darkside' were used on Derrick May's seminal 'The Innovator' album as 'Phantom / Phantom Lurks' interludes but never as a whole track (they were just used as 70/90 second snippet interludes) and the B side 'Tic Tic Tic' , we have just learned, has only previously been available on a 'Music Institute 20th Anniversary' vinyl edition on NDATL as an 'Untitled' track, which now goes for a lot on Discogs.
Only from Phonica apparently. As the track have been released no complete version is coming out!
