Review: Earlier in the year, Peter and James Isaacs delivered arguably their strongest release to date: a fine four-tracker on Permanent Vacation that offered a perfectly formed summary of their nostalgia-meets-futurism inspired trademark sound. They continue where they left off on 'Bassian Plain', adding echoing, Yello style samples, raygun-powered synth sounds and fizzing lead lines to a colossal synth bassline, hard-wired acid lines and effects-laden drum machine beats. They add a touch of alien-sounding nu-disco colour to the TB-303 heavy acid house blueprint on 'The Isthmus of Kra', before Alex Kassian re-imagines 'Bassian Plain' as a deep, dreamy, colourful and all-action slab of breakbeat house heaviness.
