Limited Edition Repress - Marbled 12" in Spatial Sleeve A thundering take on the classic Hot Pants break leads in eerie synth work, developing a powerful haunting atmosphere. An intense driving bassline intertwines with the beats & hats, challenging the balance between the headphones and the dancefloor. A deceptively simple break expertly programmed with ASC's trademark punch is layered with dreamy 808 bass and long, swirling pads & synths, creating a luscious smooth vibe to the aptly titled Cosmic Energy. Expertly programmed yet understated breakwork punctuates Stargate with an unforgettable kick-cymbal-kick-cymbal sequence, laden with room-filling sub bass, a collage of effects and "that" whale sample used so effectively it feels fresh again in 2022. Prophecy effortlessly combines a plethora of samples and effects you'll recognise from classic atmospheric drum & bass spanning the 90's and beyond to create a true "old school brand new" vibe set to a variety pack of jungly breaks and occasional vocal hits, with a lush tonal transition towards the latter stages.
