Promising newcomer Jastice │ presents an energetic ravey cut that weaves between faded synths and a │ softened vocal, accompanied by an entrancing interlude with 'Hey You'. │ Mancunian producer Kontain dishes out 'Neck Crank', a hybrid of gritty │ rumbling bass chords, strident synths and an unwavering kick. │ Istanbul's Grafin continues by deftly combining electronic stabs, │ flurried hi hats and gravitating synths layered above the melody in │ 'Chatty Echoes'. │ │ Following is 'Bog Jest w Techno' event boss Sept, who presents us with │ a stripped back cut layered with piercing synth keys and gentle electro │ elements in 'Beyond The Veil'. Acid stabs and a female voice echo the │ track title in Raven's trippy cut 'Metal On Metal', with light airy │ synths to close out that simulate euphoria. We're taken on a dark and │ weighteir expedition with Frazi.er in 'Systematic Ignorance' - a │ brooding bass drives the sound, with acid melodies adding texture │ throughout. Keeping up pace is 'Kendall' by Trym, a cinematic │ composition that utilises cymbals, hi-hats and synth notes to create a │ brighter melody over its dark percussion. │ │ Rounding off is London techno talent Charlie Sparks who equips the │ record with weapon 'Tataki', combining Japanese vocals with acid 303's, │ sirens and powerful kick drums. Next up we have Under Black Helmet with │ 'Rogue', an industrial style track that uses familiar dark themes │ characterized by distorted keys and commanding kicks. Brooklyn's Xiorro │ follows with 'Healing Colors' featuring Adrestia, with a yearning │ distorted vocal sample, protruding percussion and jagged synth keys. │ The finale is delivered by EXHALE mainstay Ahl Iver's 'There Is Always │ Light' - a trancy endeavour that juggles hi hats and cymbals with │ twinkling euphoric synth keys and long waning bass chords. │ │ ┌────────────────────────────────────[ Tracklist ]─────────────────────────────────────┐ │ : : │ 01.999999999 - Alarm 303 [04:45] │ 02.Jastice - Hey You [06:33] │ 03.Kontain - Neck Crank [05:51] │ 04.Grafin - Chatty Echoes [06:11] │ 05.Sept - Beyond The Veil [05:46] │ 06.Raven - Metal On Metal [05:59] │ 07.Frazi.Er - Systematic Ignorance [06:08] │ 08.Trym - Kendall [05:52] │ 09.Charlie Sparks - Tatakai [07:10] │ 10.Under Black Helmet - Rogue [05:05] │ 11.Xiorro Feat Adrestia - Hearing Colors [05:15] │ 12.Ahl Iver - There Is Always Light [06:18] │ ------- │ Playtime : 70:53 Min │ │ : : │ ┌───────────────────────────────────[ Greetings to ]───────────────────────────────────┐ │ : : │ SRG | WAV │ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ Remember who you are, dont forget that
