UKSPL021 – Inner City Sumo / The Edge – Strider.
Out now on 12” vinyl and mp3/WAV at your favourite record stores and download sites.
Strider’s been busying himself in the studio recently, having witnessed his remix of Darftphunk & Slakshot’s ‘I Dance U’ come out on Splank!, he’s now got material lined up in the form of a remix for Control Breaks with Squatter’s ‘They’re In My Bowels’, collaborations with both The Analogue People and Funkasaurus lined up, as well as these 2 new belter’s for Splank!
‘Inner City Sumo’ has a straight break, robo-electro synth styling’s and a distorted bass hook full of chord changes. Strider shape’s the track with clever pads, tight fills, and a well thought out arrangement. Whilst ‘The Edge’ is a foray into 4/4, laced once again with killer riff’s, layers of synth lfo, vocodered darlek noises and extreme trickery in the drop, this one is massive!
