Obscurity Is Infinite Techno (Raw / Deep / Hypnotic)

Ben Sims and Truncates return to the ASSAILANTS project on their own Obscurity Is Infinite imprint sees the duo drop four tightly-wound Techno cuts, echoing one of 2018's biggest releases, their Chase Sequences EP. The Art of Rolling EP begins with The Roller, a locked-in undulating piece of Hardgroove punctuated with deft percussive flourishes and the correct amount of cowbell, while Fracture 1 heads into beatdown territory with on-the-beat claps and crafty rap samples. Fracture 2 continues the swinging grooves in a lean, rumbling style with soulful vocal clips offsetting an earworm riff. Closing out is Effort 12 (a nod to 90s UK Techno), which treads a rattling, bell-riff and DX strings path that walks the line between heads-down and arms-up perfectly.
