Darkestral / Limited to 500 GOLD / BLACK coloured vinyl copies, in reversed heavy board sleeves, coloured pantone black both inside and out, and with gold foil block logos and lettering front and back. Having created waves across the electronic music spectrum within a spartan set of releases, Darkestral recordings and Instra:mental have seen a vision made real, a shift and influence that is ever growing and risen from the kernal of a unified ideal. For this first EP release Instra:mental continue the tradition of the label releases by showing two distinctly contrasting styles on their solo offerings and continue in this vein via their colaborative excursions with the highly respected dBridge. ‘Photograph’ takes the deep, emotive route of previous releases ‘Pacific Heights’ and ‘Sakura’ into the most beatific, blissful and evocative music they have yet conspired to create..in short, a modern masterpiece ‘The Dead Zone’ brings a swarming, heavyweight appraisal of alternative dancefloor agendas, thick and dystopian atmospherics speak of a reading of the current times ‘Translucent’ further echoes distant memories summoned by ‘Photograph’, As if a gauze has been thrown over something personal and loved, in order to shroud its true beauty ‘Detuned’ returns to experimental pastures, this is pure soundscaping for Dancefloors without boundaries, something of an uneasy existence made flesh for a carnival of alienated club goers. ‘Photograph’ features as the closing track on the commix ‘Fabriclive 44' compilation. www.myspace.com/darkestralrecordings a1 Instra:mental - Photograph a2 Instra:mental - The Dead Zone a3 Instra:mental Vs dBridge - Translucent a4 Instra:mental Vs dBridge - Detuned
