Review: Mark Broom teams up with Patrik Carrera for this hard-hitting four track release. "KOS" is a tough minimal track. Powered by insistent metallic percussion and visceral kicks, it's primed for peak-time use. The partnership yields a different result on the title track. Focused on a throbbing groove and an insistent, grungy loop, it makes for a powerful roller. Broom and Carrera remain in this general territory for "Track 4". Fuelled by a driving rhythm and merciless metallic percussion, its deft filtered twists and turns are sure to have the desired impact. There's no let-up on "F9" either, where the pair drop a tough, insistent workout.
Review: Returning to his own label, Rolando drops a release that is steeped in his hometown's musical heritage. The title track sees the Underground Resistance affiliate travel down a less familiar path than usual. Drawing on Detroit's electro sound, he delivers an atmospheric, breaking jam. "Would You Just Listen" is more in keeping with his trademark sound. Over a dense, swung rhythm he drops insistent stabs and dissected vocal samples. One of Rolando's peers has been tasked with remix duties; sounding more like Jeff Mills than his trademark ghetto tech, Godfather drops an acid-inflected chord-heavy techno take on "Where You From Foo."
