Review by Valerie Willis

Peterbilt Angel by Morel: A Deep Dive into 1994’s Hidden House Gem Let’s get one thing straight—Richard Morel is not messing around. His album Peterbilt Angel, released under Outsider Music in 1994, feels like a late-night drive through neon-lit streets where the basslines pulse as hard as your heartbeat. It’s electronic music with grit, soul, and just enough weirdness to keep you hooked. If you’re into House, Deep House, or Tech House, this record might just slap harder than you expect. First off, let’s talk about “The Stoning Of Steven.” This track? Absolute fire. From the moment it kicks in, there’s this hypnotic groove that grabs you by the collar and doesn’t let go. The percussion hits like rain on a tin roof—steady but unpredictable—and those synths? They shimmer like sunlight breaking through storm clouds. There’s something haunting yet uplifting about it, like dancing alone in an empty warehouse at 3 AM while the world sleeps. You can almost picture Richard Morel sitting in some dimly lit studio, tweaking knobs until everything felt just right. And trust me, it does. Then there’s “Peterbilt Angel,” the title track, which slaps for entirely different reasons. It’s got this raw, almost industrial edge to it, like someone took a chunk of Detroit techno and smushed it together with Chicago house vibes. But what makes it stick? That bassline—it growls, man. Like, low and menacing, but still kinda sexy. Every time I hear it, I imagine myself cruising down Sunset Boulevard (funny coincidence, huh?) in a beat-up old car, windows down, wind messing up my hair. It’s cinematic without trying too hard, y’know? Larry Packer co-produced this beast, and you can tell he brought his A-game. Together with Morel, they crafted an album that doesn’t feel dated—even though it dropped nearly three decades ago. Tracks like “Blue Taxi” and “Don’t” have these little quirks, these unexpected twists that remind you how wild and experimental dance music used to be before algorithms started telling us what to vibe to. But here’s the kicker: listening to Peterbilt Angel today feels like finding a mixtape from another dimension. It’s unpolished in the best way possible, full of heart and human imperfections. In a world obsessed with flawless production, this album reminds us that sometimes, the magic happens when things aren’t perfect. So yeah, if you’re looking for something that’ll make your next DJ set stand out—or if you just wanna zone out and pretend you’re living in a ‘90s cyberpunk novel—grab yourself a copy of Peterbilt Angel. Just don’t blame me when you start hearing echoes of “The Stoning Of Steven” in your dreams. Or maybe that’s just me… Either way, good luck getting these tunes outta your head.

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s a cool fact: The album *Peterbilt Angel* by Morel, released in 1994, is a hidden gem in the electronic music scene. It blends House, Deep House, and Tech House with tracks that feel like mini-stories. One standout track, *"The Stoning Of Steven,"* sets the tone with its moody vibes. Fun detail—Richard Morel not only co-produced the album but also wrote all the tracks. It’s wild to think this US-made album came out over 25 years ago on the Outsider Music label!

When the rain comes down it will wash away your sin Sam's a messed up queen god knows where he's been but he loves you - so he loves you . Wanna take you down underneath the sand salt water taffy stuck to your hand So he loves you right and he loves you tight . if you're wondering what i've been throught There's a peterbilt angel next to you . And i'm shining now - i'm shining now . When the rain comes down its gonna wash the love i found All the years i've done , sometimes for fun But now i'm stuck here in the midle of space you're my peterbilt angel , my brand new face i'm in loves with you - i said it i'm in loves with you - i said it
