Track Of The Day: The Alan Parsons Project - Pipeline (DJ Steef Edit) (Darkness Has Never Been So Bright)


This track comes on at the beginning of one of Sean Johnston’s many ALFOS EBS mixes, number 7 to be exact, recorded right back in the depths of lockdown on the 10/7/20. And although a lot has happened since then, tracks like this keep on occupying my middle distance. This mid paced cross-pollinated chugtastic banger is a good example of everything that I find interesting about music right now. It transcends genres and, consequently, feels timeless. Music like this does not feel like its locked in to any particular trend, rather it skates across the top of them, laughing at the plight of what gets locked into a particular era. A hypnotic, transcendental piece of work that gets more intoxicating on repeat.
