Detroit's legendary Godfather of TechnoSoul, Eddie Flashin Fowlkes is back
with a new album Welcome to my World. Distributed by Submerge and due for
release in Europe Spring 2007, the 10 track album is a voyage through a
musical landscape encompassing funky grooves, electronica and breaks, all
wrapped up in the soulful yet industrial sound that is synonymous with
Detroit.

In many ways Detroit's unsung hero, Welcome to my World, EFF's first
artist album since 1996's Black TechnoSoul on Tresor Records, follows on
the back of last summer's docu-film Hi Tech Soul. The documentary,
(distributed by Plexi Films) narrating the birth and subsequent explosion
of Detroit's dance and electronic music scene confirms EFF's role as one
of the originators and heavy weights of the Detroit electronic sound
along with Derrick May, Kevin Saunderson and Juan Atkins.

It's been a long time since "Goodbye Kiss" and "Black TechnoSoul" A
European tour spanning London, Germany and Austria to promote his long
awaited album "WELCOME TO MY WORLD"
confirms that Detroit's Godfather of TechnoSoul, is back and bigger,
better and funkier than before.

The 10 track album is a seamless fusion of Detroit's finest electronic
house and techno with a good messure of soul and funk thrown into the mix.
Fowlkes deftly moves between tempos and styles to produce an audio journey
that straddles old and new.

"WELCOME TO MY WORLD" features some of Fowlkes best work yet and raises
again the question whether Fowlkes is the missing link between 70's
Detroit disco and techno.
