grinch presents a collection of deep productions with dark, spaced-out tone, for his first solo ep. the title track sets the mood with a minimal, devilish bouncing shimmer, that grows into a subby monster in no time. the vibe changes with pulling teeth dropping us into a spacious ambience, with ghost tones of varying frequencies. on the flip, genjutsu, a heart pumping rhythm with knife edge minimal percussion. the final tune, 1:45am is reminiscent of a dark sci-fi nightmare scene and followed by waking up in a terrifying, cold sweat. together the tracks teeter along the lines of techno with dubstep influences.

two collaborations between two highly respected producers. photeks >closer< marked the 50th release on pinchs tectonic last year, and some time in the studio together has produced these standout tracks. acid reign first appeared in january on pinchs fabriclive mix compilation, his dubplate version described by fact mag as >a slow-burning half-stepper with a twisted acid melody fighting for air in an oil spill, as claustrophobic as you like, basically<. m25fm appears on photeks instalment to the highly respected dj kicks compilation series, its another acid-tinged track, taking us into much deeper territory.
