Taking a brief detour from his normal abrasive distorted sound, Pinion showcases his broad spectrum as an artist with the Desire EP. The first original track, Recollection shifts gears quite drastically with a 135 BPM stormer with enough soul and melody to make the uncharacteristically fast tempo seem inconsequential. The title track, Desire (Half Measure),starts out of the gate with a thunderous half beat 808 coupled with a swinging hihat pattern that slowly works ethereal vocal slices into the forefront, accompanied with a modulating synth pad that evolves into a defining melody. The sister track, Desire (Full Measure), has very similar characteristics as the original, but allowing a little more edge for the dancefloor to build on. In addition to these three or iginal, comes Kyle Geiger on remix duties to round out the EP with a housier take on Desire, but still enough bite to fit nicely into any techno set.
