Special Request  - Stairfoot Lane Bunker (Inc. Minor Science Remix)

‘Redrum’ is the fierce opener. Rampantly-edited electro beats, a sampled speak-n-spell vocal, and a pure sci-fi breakdown sets the scene for the rest. ‘Stairfoot Lane Bunker’ and ‘Replicant’ are jungle tracks taken to dizzying extremes - the former building from widescreen atmospherics, thunder spells and lightning before descending into a frenzy of breakbeats and long heavy bass notes. 'Replicant' ratchets the pressure up further with hyper-edits across it's breakbeat introduction and throughout, punctuated by furnace-rattling subs. ‘Telepathic Dog’ and ‘Five Lane Ends’ are highly evocative ambient pieces, pushing into the uncanny realms of metaphysical music. To end the release Minor Science comes through with his remix of ‘Stairfoot Lane Bunker’, effortlessly blending in his own work with the disjointed SR breakbeats, flashing only snippets of the serrated bars, chopping them up and creating a new track in the process.
