Last Japan / Visionist - Control This / Storm Trooper - Signal Life

Amongst the quick salvo of quality bass music releases that Finnish label Signal Life has issued forth as a powerful statement of curatorial intent, this EP from Visionist and Last Japan serves a sharp and focused two tracker populated by two very complementary tracks. Visionist is as woozy and hyperactive as ever as snapping patterns of drum machines hop around poised sub swells and haunted whispers of melody, while Last Japan adopt a more abrasive sound palette to deliver their own version of dark, metallic broken beat. Unflinchingly rhythmic and ice-cold in nature, both cuts pack everything required to attend to the needs of the modern hybrid dancefloor.
