Diving headlong into sublime yet resolutely tough territory this rendition of beats, bass and intensity is furiously realised via the energetic production skills of Unknown7 & Sessanta6 on Sweet Cherry Inside. Its brutal fusion of deep, rolling rhythms trips easily off the tongue as Dani Siciliano’s sampled vocal from “I’m the Question†(Circus Company) neatly

Gabriele di Natale and Antonio Cosentino aka Proudly People ignite the airwaves with this brilliantly, energetic workout of feverish proportions across three tracks. In one sense it’s all about the fiery percussion that never fails to bump and grind, or for that matter the bass which does much the same thing. I guess the words

Taking the fiery inflections of Chicago Acid as its starting point the arrangement channels robust bass and punchy drums together like an orgy of sleazy excitement. Addictively tantalising the rhythms are all

A stunning piece of work from Marcus Schmickler whose experiments into the boundaries of sound and its consequent construction play out here across some thirty seven minutes. Sometimes touching ecstasy, sometimes reaching deep within igniting forgotten images. The concept explores when two galaxies collide by gravitational forces. Split in two parts on the LP release
