The Great Traitor - The Great Traitor - Remnant Records

A - The Great Traitor
B - Echoes Of The Great Traitor ( Monolake Version)

" Ethereal avant-techno/breakbeats from an unknown US operator, backed with a sumptuous and extended Monolake version. 'The Great Traitor's self-titled entry weaves fragments from the legendary Conet Project shortwave recordings (if you don't know - go seek!) into a rugged mesh of hardcore breaks zip-locked with close and muggy atmospherics. In the hands of Monolake this becomes the 'Echoes Of The Great Traitor'. The shimmering pizzicato strings of the original are digitally iced and diffused into a gaseous state while the rhythm is subjected to typical Henke refinements. Its 'ardcore drum angles are erased to leave ghostly halfstep comtrails in the air, hanging over subliminal bass swells swooning with fragile yet dynamic force, the atmospheres oscillating between cloistered and wide open with dizzying, head pressure-altering effect."
