Ascender
Hot on the heels of a hit high octane Jazz-fueled broken beat bruk beast, Full Bleed guy Alland Byallo returns with a rare reflection of his recently retired ravey recordings. Deep, droney but delightfully dulcet, "Ascender" is an epic, driving cut that's matchless for magical mornings. Chunky West Coast-vibe percussion and a fat Moog bass line lay down strong substrate for effervescent xylophones and chimes, sinewy 303 lines and soaring leads. One for the heads and headnodders, no doubt.
