Dark hits and hooks, rolling dub breaks, and a wide cushion of flowing sub are constant through this pointed collaboration by Niko & Jonah K. From the spacious introductory beats of Antares, through its ensuing moody swagger and into a circular percussive spiral stirring up in Arcturus, an enticing vibe and bounce is established instantly and fully maintained. The two tracks seamlessly intersect, complimenting perfectly when mixed.

For reinforcement, Tamarak is brought on, packing a blinding remix of Antares. Vastness and suffocating intensity mark this one for extreme heat, true to form from this monster west coast producer.

Closing out, Pablo Splice revises Arcturus with a characteristic spin, suiting up the original parts as a frantic torrent of electro in a slow steady roller that swells to an extended beats break.
