its time for the second release on diamonds and pearls in 2012. two of the most singular and distinct forces in house and techno today team up for a special sonic treat. we are talking about the two alechmists xdb and kassem mosse. so get yourself ready for two extended journeys into techno, house and beyond. xdbs >ekatem< is a driving, rough and ready house track with a beautifully bubbling square bassline and dirty synth work. on the flip xdb is joined by kassem mosse for an exploration into the outer reaches of house music. omrish is a gritty-yet-atmospheric jam, full of shimmering chords and floating synth melodies which are puntuated by double kicks and crisp cymbals. mesmerizing stuff.
