Catalog #:	CMPD 006EP

"Compound One are proud to present the 6th installment on their self-titled imprint. Perhaps The Darkness sees Compound One take flight on the Odyssey through meteor storms and mythical enemies to travel the universe with a crew frozen until they find the Kingdom of Hades. Armed with an Emu Sampler and galactic 808s, the duo unleash a moody and linear stepper with funky percussion and old skool pads to help guide them towards 'that column of light.' On the flip, 'Bad Magic' casts a spell and bounces along in a straight up jungle vs garage style. Rolling subs and skippy percussion battle it out for sonic supremacy against a backdrop of quirky samples and edits which are now trademarks of Compound One productions. With DJ support from Breakage, Pangaea, Scuba, Moldy, Scientist, Ramadanman and more."

Title:	Pum Pum Beat/Back Off
Label:	COMPOUND ONE (UK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	CMPD 008EP

"The eighth release on their self-titled label sees Compound One step out of the darkened lab to take time out from their usual techy experiments and head straight for the rave... A hugely diverse release that has been played across the board by DJs such as Mista Jam, MJ Cole and Brendon Moeller. As featured by Zero T on his Fabric.Live 52 mix, 'Pum Pum Beat' gets its peculiar name from the rhythm of the kicks and snares rather than what people seem to think! The highly swung beats and quirky percussion form a backbone for a bassline that is hard to resist. Emotional Detroit style stabs complete the picture and the breakdown will have your hands in the air! Carrying on with the emo vibes of this release, 'Back Off' sees the duo go right back to their roots with an early UK 2step garage inspired number. Trademark Qualifide vocal cut ups and fractured breakbeats come together to form the groove. Once again, the breakdown is pure hands in the air."
