Opener ‘Trust’ pulls no punches – it is a heavy techno cut with slamming kick drums and rattling snares. Glitchy synth textures peel off the groove, and a dark vocal adds an extra layer to the urgent mixture of warehouse-ready sounds.
Jerome Hill is the remixer and came up through the illegal London warehouse scene of the 90s. He is a master of funk, runs labels including Don’t, Super Rhythm Trax and Hornsey Hardcore, and is an artist that represents DJing in its most vivid, creative and versatile form. His fantastic version is no less brutal. The drums are broken up, fizzing synths whip about with dystopian energy and eerie pads add a sense of depth to the track.
Second remixer Fred Asquith is another London-based artist and is behind the Room2 events and record label. His eclectic techno sound is laid bare on a high-speed and chunky combination of huge hits and barreling drums. Visceral vocal cries add to the vibe and will make any club a real rave cauldron.
Last of all is ‘Don’t Stop’, another fast-paced techno cut with a subtle sense of funk in the drum programming, loopy percussion and warped synth lines. It is peak time, heart of the dance floor dynamite that cannot fail to detonate any party.
