The "Rising Consciousness EP" takes you on a tour of your own mind via two brilliant originals with remixes from techno veteran Bryan Zentz, and label head Let's Go Outside. Side A dives into the limbic system with the deep house masterpiece that is "Waving, Surviving". It's slick and sexy, creating a beautiful, wide space around its subtle textures, exhilarating swells, and tones which envelope you like a big hug. Bryan Zentz massive remix explores the frontal lobe further, managing to perfectly balance the Plus 8 recording artist's heavy dance floor genius with the warmth of the original. On the B side, Rico tests your motor skills with "Skinless", a driving and playful tech house trip. This is raw fun dance music that slaps every neuron in your cerebral cortex with each step. Sliding down and out the thalamus, Slant label head Let's Go Outside reworks "Skinless" into an overwhelming, full blown body and brain workout.
