London-based sound mangler & audio-artist extraordinaire Rico Casazza drops his first EP for Insult To Injury, the Ransom Note Records sub-label run by Timothy Clerkin. We’re treated to a slow, atmospheric start with the titular Catharsis; a glitchy, IDM masterpiece that sounds like it was recorded in a run-down warehouse somewhere in an industrial wasteland, circa 1992. We then quickly shift up a gear with Atompunk, the bastard child of the 80s Electro scene & early UK Jungle, creating something quite unique. Stepping on the accelerator even harder, Insert Feelings Here is a juggernaut summer anthem, propelled by it’s driving bassline, the euphoric strings transport us to a beachy dance-floor, just as the sun is rising. This one has arrived just in time for some ecstatic summer festival moments! Australian maestro Shedbug takes the reins for the Atompunk remix, cranking the Jungleometer up to eleven, for a Jekyll & Hyde monster that darts between the ambient rave forest and full frontal assault!

Originally released in 1999 on Crayon Recordings now remastered & re-released with a 2016 very slight Re-Edit version by Mark Ambrose himself (extra trip to that breakdown!) this killer warehouse track with his trademark percussive Rhythms and Bass driven vibe has become a most sort after gem in recent years , on heavy rotation with a few select dj's - Valentino Kanzyani , Ricardo Villalobos etc… Discogs prices through the roof blah blah blah... On the flip Valentino Kanzyani delivers a hypnotic 12 minute spaced out groove for a late night dance floor - a really special complete rework, heavy on the bass , that will get into your head and fire the
deep dancefloors. So happy to unleash this one. 200 copies going out for distribution, 300 pressed . Note: label lists A & B sides the wrong way round. Murge Recordings was launched back in 2012, with an artist roster which includes the like of Aubrey, Colin Dale, Jay Tripwire, Jordan Peak, Mark Ambrose, Mr K-Alexi Shelby, Plaid, Robert Armani and Orlando Voorn to name a few.
