Commander Tom
Attention

Data

WE SAY

A fairly simple record this. It's licensed from Pulsive in Germany. It samples Superstar by Novy vs Eniac. There's not much to it. Ministry have done one of their ultra-concise, bang-on radio edits, mailed it out in a Data sleeve, and suddenly this is looking and sounding like one of those smaller releases that could just turn into a very big release.
