Another solid performance from the Lexicon Avenue stable - their production is awesome as is their ability to make music out of the sometimes dreary world of progressive house.

Even though I haven't heard this track in years, its one of the very few dance tunes that I remember well. The haunting Muslim call to prayer has meant that there were a few places around the world that labelled this tune "Blasphemous" and banned it... It gained additional notoriety on the strength of this.

Lexicon Avenue cooked up a dark tribal progger with this one, the heavy bassline and then intoxicating rhythm will draw you in on the dancefloor. Most jocks will play the dub with this one since it takes someone with big balls to play the vocal mix.

Scott, Armstrong & Bradford sampled the muslim callout prayer and added some nice haunting reverb and threw it into the mix. It brings a certain depth and darkness to the record and more greatly a element of surprise.
