PLANETARY ASSAULT SYSTEMS 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: Hot on the heels of his full-length LP 'Sky Scraping', Luke Slater is back as Planetary Assault Systems with one of the albums key tracks 'Devotion', which wasn't included on the 2LP. Truncate steps in for a hard hitting remix on A2, while Slater provides a new exclusive hypnotic track 'Eden Tide' as B1. Barker then closes out the record with a meditative eye closer to smooth the edges of a rougher record.

Review: To celebrate the passing of three decades since the release of his first EP as Planetary Assault Systems, Luke Slater has served up new reworks of the single's most celebrated cut, 'In From The Night'. The first to have a crack at transforming Slater's 1993 original, a throbbing techno stomper rich in alien-sounding electronics and razor-sharp TB-303 motifs, are old pal Adam Beyer and Drumcode regular Webhha. They retain the original's intensity and sweaty techno breathlessness, adding raw, tech-trance style riffs and a grand, big room-ready sound. Over on the flip, Slater provides two tweaks of his own: a classic, build-and-release 'Edit' with added murky noises and extra TB-303 tweakery, and a blisteringly energetic, off-kilter, on-the-fly 'Live Edit' that re-imagines the track as a jumpy, broken techno beast.
