Track Of The day: Skymaster - Shooting Stars (Offshoot)


What makes this is “the noise”. You’ll know what I’m talking about as soon as it kicks in. Like some primeval behemoth yawning at the dawn of time. Something from beyond the 5th dimension, previously seen in the imagination of H.P. Lovecraft. I remember some things so well they defy description. And so it was that when visiting Fabric for the first time, probably it’s second or third week, I heard Derrick May play this on that system. The beans were very good back then so the effect that it has open me was instant and cataclysmic. It’s funny because the rest of the track isn’t normally the type of groove I’m fond of, but the monster’s groan keeps things effervescent.
