This is the stand-out track of the album for me, one of my all-time favourite Detroit techno tracks. It's a stripped, dark, bubbling, acid-tinged monster with a really deep, rolling, off-kilter vibe. Droning synth-lines float up and merge with eerie snippets of vocals, while dark, gritty breakbeats drive the whole thing along, underpinned by a muscular, surging bassline that coils around all the elements like a sea-sepent. Relentless...
True techno. A masterpiece.
