The first release on Emissions Static, one of four labels set up by Andy Weatherall in the Emissions conglomerate, set up to supplant Sabres Of Paradise, and what a record. Also a very early collaborative release featuring Carl Finlow, this track gets the nod over the equally magnificent ‘Surface Intention’ because I’m sure I can remember hearing it played out a lot, either pitched up to +8, or at 45rpm. In any case, it’s a slow burning acid monster with a superior bass line and an interplanetary ambience. The bass drops and the accompanying synth melody feel more than familiar, so it would be interesting to know just how much this tune has been ripped off. It’s an influential piece for sure, expertly blending beats with the sound of worlds being born. The sound of the big bang.
