We wrote the track in a rental cabin out in the countryside. Mikk had always wanted to make a track with a similar drumwork to Bad Company's 'Sentient,' so that's what we started with. As sound engineering requires a lot of mental effort, we had some chocolate lying around to keep us going. By the end of the day, most of the track was finished. We just needed to let it ferment overnight and see what we thought in the morning. When we returned to the makeshift studio the next day, we noticed that someone had nibbled away half of the chocolate. Rats. After that, the tone of the track switched a bit, and coming up with the name was simple.

After a two-year hiatus, returning to the genre with this release holds profound significance for us. The opportunity to debut a track on the legendary Cause4Concern label is a dream come true after over a decade of production. This song began as a homage to the fundamentals of DNB, incorporating its signature basslines, haunting pads, and a contemporary twist. The joy we feel is further amplified by the opportunity to release the song alongside esteemed artists like Survey, PRTCL. Inuff, Bad Ace, Matt Domino and HeadRead.

I asked Mark if he’d like me to try and write something for the EP as I was keen to experience the process of writing in that way. I spent hours on numerous versions – different basslines and grooves but ‘Nerves’ is the one where it all suddenly seemed to make sense – a bass driven roller aimed at the decks and the headphones.

"Do You Know Your Limit?" was made on one of those days where everything just fell together. I decided to meet Hardy (Survey) for some Lunch on the Saturday of a gig night; They were booked to play at Suicide Club in Berlin, a big Techno club. We met and ended up starting something shortly after lunch. Later on we were joined by the buddy Inuff, then not so long after by Stephan (Survey). Building the tune and warming up for the event are a great compliment, and the vocal hook for the track was actually recorded at my studio by Hardy...It was just some nonsense phrase we were chatting when in a good mood. One of those sessions and it turned out better than anyone would have expected.

Proud to be part of this project! C4C Recordings has been a dream of mine. It was actually because of the mighty Optiv that I found dnb. He served me in Dancetwo Records when I actually went in for some happy hardcore, he gave me molten beats and inside the machine along with some white labels of the Cause4Concern stuff which instantly caught my ear.
