New Copy

Genre: Bass

1. Closer
2. Closer (Pinch remix)

In celebration of their 50th 12" vinyl release, Tectonic presents a rare new outing from none other than the legendary Photek. Rupert Parkes carved himself a solid reputation throughout the ‘90s for delivering precision drum work, clinical production values and consistently pushing boundaries in jungle and drum& bass. Gracing Tectonic with the soulful 120bpm 'Closer', Photek has turned a corner with his style and sound since the d&b days, keeping things fresh and upfront for this celebratory release. Label boss Pinch flips the vibe back to 140bpm dubstep territories with his flipside remix, keeping things rolling and soulful but also heavily laced with a characteristic brooding sense of menace. Full picture sleeve for this one too, and the first 1000 copies off the press also come with free download code for digital versions of both tracks!
