Fields Of Sonic Love
A lot of producers could get away with coasting on the droning keyboard hook in "It This Power," and you'd have a fine if somewhat flat track. The beauty of the Field's arrangement is that while it lets you meditate on a repetitive part, it's always moving. The beat mutates as it goes along, never getting too busy but often suggesting an aggressive physicality. The bass is what makes this, though – reserved funk in combination with the main groove, oddly forlorn when that sound drops out, deliriously melodic when it returns.

“Heart Of Glass” and “V2 Schneider”…the usual suspects…
