Outside records who hail from North Carolina are a rapidly
carving a niche for themselves offering international record
boxes a fresh, groundbreaking spin on the most hardy perennial,
dancefloor electro. Eps from Ben Milstein, Carl Finlow and
Daz Quayle's Scarleton project have impressed recently with
ruged mashups and schizoid jacking a given. Nktar is the
latest addition to Outside's increasingly unmissable roster'.
On with z listening..
"Truiam"
thrusts itself about the dancefloor with a deep pop of a
bassline, as the drum machine creeps past on the way to
the bar, giving off a smooth motor driven tempo that you
can all get down to. Then, the stimulating, almost wall
like main melody comes into effect, and sends out wobbling
messages of electro sub to make sure everyone knows its
back in town. Flood like resonance that gives off a professional
aura, its all good.
"Rite
thru" takes it a slower tempo this time, giving off
the message, that its here to shake some things up. Mutilated
sounds flick through the air like coins into a fountain,
as the bass it put on the backburner for the the host pcs
voice to read out its manifesto to the crowds below. The
bass now let loose, pounds out a refined message that gradually
builds upto a rotor spinning spell, that overwhelms your
attention and keeps you listening. Top shit.
"Venom" lays down a dirty grime laden bassline,
which in real life, runs just beneath the earths crust like
an ever present voice, whilst a warm melody skims the stratosphere,
dragging its toe in the earths personal space and raining
down tiny pellets of soothing audio to all below. Get in
line for the astral shower.
"ways2go"
is the final track on the release. This one is speaker breaking
from the very start, with a heavy heavy bassy static pulse,
that rips right through your skin but leaves no mark. Oscilation
runs so deep throughout this one, with a massively dark
booming undertone which gushes along like a fresh tributary
off the main river. Fresh.
Fully recommended, If you like a big cup full of deep calculating
electro stylings, with ice cubes full of climate and construction,
that fills your mind right up. Track this one down.
