A vital member of the crews that brought you Behind Bars and Antagony, it's a delight to welcome Prisce de Cockroach onto the show. We've had him/her earmarked for a guest slot since we launched back in September. Prisce favours a dark, moody techno sound - not too hard or fast, but sick and twisted to the core.

The start of this mix is relatively gentle, but before long the energy levels rise and dark drums threaten to engulf the listener. What follows is one of the most tense build-up sections of any guest mix we've featured to date. The release of this tension is a joy, and from here on the mix moves though pounding 4/4 textures, more rhymically challenging sections plus moments of calm, although these always end up being the eye of the storm - it's never long before Prisce whips the listener back up into a noirish frenzy.




We're back. New track coming soon.
