Burial Grounds EP vinyl

Gijs Poortman aka G String hits 2013 head on for Greek imprint Echovolt with the Burial Grounds EP, ahead of a forthcoming appearance on Dutch ambient-cum-dub techno imprint Field Recordings . The opening track "Ghoul" thrums with an 808 heavy low end and choral bassline, allowing distant voices to wallow ghostly in the background. "Revenge" slightly lightens in mood with the use of African percussion, although the introduction of side chained synths, acidic bass sequences and drawn out leads return the track something a little more unsettling. D'Marc Cantu's additional Ghoul remix to "Phase" takes up the flip, using tubular phase effects that sweep over its percussive elements, further employing jacked snare hits and off kilter claps to add some sinister pace.
