Paranoid London & Water Machine – Decimated Driver [PDON015]

hipodrome, , , , , , Leave a comment

Paranoid London collaborate with Glaswegian band Water Machine for an acidic two tracker. The London-based duo of Quinn Whalley and Gerardo Delgado are known for their stripped back acid house sound and ‘Decimated Driver’ fits the agenda once again. The track utilizes catchy distorted synth lines to drive the groove, carefully placed on top of a pounding and infectious 303 bassline. Throw in some chants of “AN – TI – CI – PA – TION” by Water Machine and they have managed to craft a perfect dancefloor filler. The second side of the record is a dub version of the track, making it all the more broody and moody.

This is Gesloten Cirkel at his most focused and feral.

Borderline State Disorder – S/T [NYH387]

“Borderline State Disorder is a project which emerged from a country with problematic borders definition. Within that country, speaking loud for human rights and opposing the occupation is not common (it exists but sadly it tends to be muted). But it is even more important now, during the hardest times of war.
We believe all human beings are equal, and they all deserve freedom, safety and future.
Thank you”
