A throbbing minimal yet pumping 4 tracker of 808 laced cuts. 'Aerobits' grabs right away with the bass from the 808. Drum clicks are finely tuned and edited for your delight. The bouncing synths only accent the massive hole created. 'DonerFreq' is instant energy. Clap attacks snare and snare hits on the the electro toms. As if speaking the drums wait for the clouded bass to carry it further. Flip it over for 'Lockjob' and 'R3v3rs3r'. First track layers analog kick drum and thick shakers to build the base for an off-set rhythm. Swings it up. 'R3v3rs3r' is a flipped around edited chopped up workout. The main hooks pushes and the percussion does not relent. More
