Another smooth progressive cut here from Russia’s Slam Duck, following up the brilliant Mercury EP from earlier this year. Propelled by a rubbery kick, fluttery shakers & a muted rolling bass line, the eerie Outside summons up imagery of a foggy, winters evening, with branches scraping & rain spattering against a window pane – whilst a reassuring fire crackles within. Distant, plaintive cries raise the hairs on the neck, preparing the listener for a delicious, squelchy acid line that bubbles up at the break, unleashing its hypnotic powers at the drop. Truly mesmerising.
