Vocal Samples come from the film Darkman starring Liam Neeson.

Oh my gosh! This tune was actually produced by Lime's girlfriend, Jo(not sure if she still is, but she was at the time). Who'd have thunk that a girl could make such an amazingly dark roller (no offense Jo if you're reading!).

The bassline is so hard that it could punch a hole through your Nan's face! The beats and percussion for this track are also really well done, just simply adding and dropping out layers keeps the whole track moving along nicely. Then the reversed 'R-Type' computer game theme running over the top (at least that's what I think it is) acting as the melody just adds to the overall darkness of the track and then to top it off you have the beautiful vocoded 'Holographic imaging...Active' and 'Holographic imaging....Compute' samples (Also from the game I think).

This is the best example of a dark rolling D & B track I have ever come across. Big up Jo, sick!
