Alien Power Assemblage
The title track
exponentially ascends on a wind of brittle, taut energy interspersed with some
gossamer-light flourishes. It’s driven, but not nosebleed-strong. The Dungeon
Acid rework funks it up and gets busy in a style which is syncopated enough to
put me in mind of double-jointed line dancers. I don’t have a preference and
both have their merits. ‘Dubby’ does what it says on the tin, and is a passable
piece which flanges its way through the heavens, having a similar sonic
template to ‘Alien Power’, inasmuch as it’s deceptively light touch harbours atmospheric
layers. The two originals here are made for the long mix and will take most
transitions that can be thrown at them. The remix is a different beast and
demands the spotlight.
