District is back on the warpath for the Chestplate camp, delivering four of his fiercest constructions to date on the imprint’s 26th release. Following on from last year’s colossal Painting The Mind/ Modulate 12″, Dan has been hard at work the studio mutilating reese synths, engineering dangerous basslines and building dub after dub in the mould of his impossibly dark and technical signature sound. CHST026 sees vinyl release for a couple of his largest and most highly-anticipated beats, ‘Transmission’ on the A side with ‘LV-223′ providing raw firepower on the flip. Transmission’s tightly looped vocal sample over the intro heralds the destructive force about to drop, and when it does it’s a lethal sub-sonic assault, with jagged snyths cutting through the midrange, drums that bang with deafening precision and seismic-scale low frequencies. District switches up the rhythms on LV-223, opting for driving technoid 4×4 kick pressure and reined-back, subtle growls lurking beneath a sinister backdrop of ambience that paints a nightmarish, bass-fuelled picture. If that wasn’t already enough ammunition, Chestplate have packaged together a pair of digital bonus tracks available via the Surus store, featuring the epic ‘Kraken’ which sounds like District’s own twisted take on the Imperial March with cavernous brass fanfares ringing out over deep, rolling subs, and the lowdown, minimal sounds of ‘Antidote’ to round-off the release.
