Ultramajic present Kris Wadsworth's Infiltrator (Album Sampler). The album mirrors Kris and his year of tough studio time with sonic journeys into hardware house and techno, the true symbols of Motor City. The defining sound of the album is certainly his Oberheim SEM Pro. Wadsworth also uses his beloved Roland drum machines - the iconic 606, 808 and 909. The tracks tell a story of his days as an expat in Berlin and the bizarre impression of hearing an American car engine which always makes him homesick. The sort of feels only a Detroit native can truly understand.

Welcome to "Life," the first single from Kris Wadsworth's debut album, Life and Death. "Girl Talk" will get your hips swinging faster than a hula hoop. "Definition Of" opens with a nasty tone -- very dirty and very warm. The synths and underlying percussion feel funky, creating a sweaty atmosphere. "Gutter Pimp" opens a can of bass, topped off with skanky vocal lines and a great example of how to use delay/loop effects. "666"'s downtempo energy is awe-inspiring, throwing out Satanic sounds.

Following various single releases for well respected labels, Get Physical presents the debut album for American artist Kris Wadsworth. Kris has spent the better part of his life studying and producing electronic music. Born in Atlanta, but raised in Detroit, his first release at 17 would open the door to countless more on some of the world's most respected labels, including Studio !K7 and Poker Flat Recordings. Opening with the dark monologue of "Alienated American," the stage is set for a look into what Kris is capable of when he turns his thoughts to sound. Life and Death is not only an amazing album in itself, but a statement to all those who are willing to listen. It's an album not to be taken too seriously, but with a touch of satire and a pinch of dark sarcasm. While tracks like "Definition Of" are pretty straightforward in their own right, pieces like "Famous Anus" are full of irony. On the other end of the scale is "Girl Talk," a deep and gripping track, bringing a perfect late night vibe together through various pads and organic percussion. It's followed by "Ivory 313," a collaboration with Warp Records and Hot Flush sensation Jimmy Edgar. The album operates on a very natural level, providing deep dance floor gems along with timeless tracks for every occasion. Life and Death is not your typical dance album, it pushes boundaries and challenges your expectations because that's where it sounds best -- on the edge of your comfort zone, expanding your horizons and tastes while consistently delivering on all fronts.

With It's Time, Kris Wadsworth wears his Detroit heart on his sleeve, delving into the electronic music legacy of his hometown. The epic 10-minute title track is secret journey through the city's pulsing underground. Grimy electro breaks and wiry melodies are spun before revisiting its deep house origins. Kris' own "Move Dat Ass Remix" of his track "Det Sound" takes the dubby 2010 original, and reworks it as a ferocious bass and drums workout with dizzy vocal arrangements and blasting sirens.
