Asymmetric chief Inigo Kennedy returns to his label with a distinctive five track EP 'Opposite Worlds'. Opening track 'Weightless' sets a playful undulating synth to a rolling four-to-the-floor beat, joined later by uplifting Detroit-like chord work. Next is the pure machine funk of 'Decagon', a solid kick sets the scene for rotating synth pulses and a bass line to play off each other. Title track 'Opposite Worlds' centres the release with its infectious chord work and driving tom-heavy rhythm, taking a twist into a wonderful AFX-like microtonal mid-section. 'Slow Skies' takes the tempo down a little but turns up the heavy before the vastness of 'Lucid Intervals' which brings the release to a majestic close.
