As was the case with ˜Timeslip Roadmender™ and follow-up ˜An Outrageous Fate Type™, ˜HTID™ is a chomping, foaming, kinda nutty set of industrial techno-jungle halfbreeds. They were happy party things once, a long long time ago, but after decades festering in a petri dish they turned mutant and multitudinousžwhich is why there are twice as many of them this time. If a 4/4 pummelling is your thing, šDinner At Skinja™s› has you covered. šQuest Posse Wanted› meanwhile is bullet-riddled breakbeat, and šFallout›? That™s the sound of rave resurrected, rewound and rolled back out again. šRush In 2 Orbit (Skinnergate)› shows off the pair™s abstract side, which a track like šPanosonics› lashes things down into something more club friendly. Stick šKnuckles' Heavy Vanguard› on to get the masses motivated, then drop šBase Damage› to show ˜em you mean business. Once everyone™s knees are good and swollen, float šFloatation Advice› as a peace offering, which actually is anything but. Clouds will be performing at the Electric Deluxe Presents Warehouse Edition in Amsterdam on Dec 30. They join Speedy J, R¥DHÅD, Dax J, Shifted, ¥ [Phase], VRIL, Jeff Rushin and the Noodlebar Soundsystem for a night of frill-free thrill-seeking dance music. No fireworks, no dazzle, just techno at its finest.
