Overfield (gatekeeper Rmx)

New imprint Reduction kicks off proceedings with a seriously darkside plate from Bristol producers Wedge and Gatekeeper. First up is HENCH stalwart Wedge, finally seeing his debut release on wax to follow up his regular DJ appearances in the clubs and on the radio. His track Overfiend opens with metallic screeches and rushes of cold air, then the thrumming bass and grumbling mids spiral around the clacking riddim. On the flip, Gatekeeper takes the original out into space for a chilling, dubbed out rework - stripping it back to bare basics, then adding paranoid sounds to incredible effect. Good stuff - check!
