after their hot contributions for treats vol. 2, session victim prove indeed that they are on the roll with a funkafied and no holds barred ep that pays homage to their hip-hop roots. move me so starts rather simply, with just a guitar and a vocal, but you can hear a moving bassline and distant rhodes chords creeping up from the background. two minutes into the track and theres still no kick drum, although the level of excitement produced by the magnetic groove is almost unbearable. a filtered drum break finally gives way to a four to the floor beat that should turn any dancefloor into a frenetic party. the track builds with high energy, as the pounding bassline seems to be directly lifted from an early 90s hip-hop classic. the breakdown sees the vocal/guitar loop being played differently until the second part shifts gear and brings more surprises in the mix with the intro rhodes chords coming in and out.

a heavy lead rhythm provides the foundation from which spiralling elements project. they coruscate, pulse with light and collapse inwards, until just the echoes of dub2 are left. rising from these depths, the sharpness of distribution theorys crisp hi-hats and snapping claps provide forward momentum to a series of stabs. the house element.
beginning as a mystery but ending as a certainty, the ethereal theme that opens untitled document gives way as it increases velocity, shaking and rattling under the strain. the apex. hands reach, seeking, the elusive moment has already passed, all left is pure. bliss. circumflex kicks hard, a final statement of intent. powerful. corrosive. this is late night techno, played over a system on which the squelching acid-lines converge within the mind. the body jacks.
