An animated intro stabs in to “Gravedigger” carrying a cinematic script, the high ends teasing tenaciously toward the drop with neck snapping kicks and evil intent as the suspense is seething and there’s no escape… “IT WAS ALIVE”!

Insatiable breaks and dubby effects sprinkled with vocal cues to really amp up the hype “Gravedigger” has intoxicating energy that just doesn’t quit as it crunches and munches like a beast through the mix.
MESCALINE DREAM
An atmospheric intro dives deep into the darkness as the narrative commands control in mind bending fashion enticing fear and thickening the anticipation in this “Mescaline Dream”. Psychoactive sampling stutters the vocals to the drop, primed to pummel the floor with a wild and danceable groove. “Mescaline Dream” offers warmth in the set carrying an electrifying snap that transcends through the phrases to the ultimate high.
