Playin' 4 The City - Backfire EPREPRESS ALERT!: French DJ, producer and multi instrumentalist Olivier Portal sadly passed away in January, aged 65. His best work came as Playin 4 The City and this EP is one of his most sought after on the Plastik People label. It features two tracks originally released on the 'Backshop' EP on Tropism Records in 2002 alongside one newer sound. Opener 'Minor Track' is a brilliantly aloof deep house cut with swinging, dubby drums and cute chord stabs
