Benjamin Damage, Truncate – Battle / 86

Ben Damage’s “Battle” sees him layer his hyperactive grooves over a thumping kick with a small but effective acid line topping things off. Truncate’s “86” is a massive track Dave Sumner aka Function previously used in his “Berghain 07” mix, obviously serving as one of the highlights in there. It’s creeping synths build up to a climax in typical Truncate fashion, with huge, compressed kickdrums pounding the dance floor mercilessly.
