Keeping true to the yin/yang approach of his 12inches, martianMan gives you a glimpse into his ever-expanding universe with the release of Vol. 3. The impenetrable pads of Ion Storm strike the dark and uplifting in equal amounts. Disembodied chants and deep bass tremors give way to a thunderous Amen break, while hallucinatory synths swirl throughout the madness, just beyond reach. An intergalactic barnstormer in signature style. Tracy’s Grunt, meanwhile, is built around a simple jazz loop, dripping with melancholy, backed in stark contrast to a loose, clattering funk kit. In ital comfort quickly becomes a beautiful descent into madness, where steady rhythms decay into warped electronics and bad-trip samples. A vividly painted lucid dream.
