After racking up some of the toughest bass-laden releases of 2012 both individually and collaboratively, Sleeper and District kick off 2013 with vital debut 12″ on Kryptic Minds’ Osiris Music uk imprint. The duo build a venomous soundscape ravaged by low-frequency menace on ‘The Risk’, with commanding kicks driving through the mix underneath lashings of twisted synth engineering to create a brutal composition that sits somewhere between Dubstep and Techno. Sleeper fronts up the flipside on a solo tip with ‘Dark Mutations’, a fierce halftime monster with licks of writhing mid-range riding colossal waves of sub-bass. Powerful and hard hitting vibrations from the Coventry-based pairing. x Sleeper & District – The Risk y Sleeper – Dark Mutations
