Essential. 9/10 I'd be keen for a little more detail, ie. some distinctions from those things you compare it too. For example, I'd say Monolake have a more of a rounded, bubbling dubby sound than Porter Ricks, who I'd say have a colder sound, with more of a focus on submerged noise. Maybe no one else would agree, but if someone does, you may be on the right wavelength to tell me what I want. :) I've heard the Substance guy is big on Chicago house (imports records for a German record store?), and that that gives his stuff more of a punchiness than other CR releases.
