Album Notes & Community Reviews

Diverging from the intricate, ambient-leaning IDM of his earlier work, Chris Clark presents a brutally heavy, dancefloor-oriented electronic album. The tracks are dominated by abrasive, distorted synthesizer hooks and punishing, four-on-the-floor industrial techno rhythms, showcasing his capacity for creating relentless, high-octane club music. The release successfully aimed directly at aggressive warehouse raves rather than headphone listening.
