Max van Dijk and Oliver Hiam together make up both Tessellate and The Trip, the latter of whose latest record 'Uncovered' is here brought to the former record label. A retromodern take on acid trance and breaks for the present proto-cyborgish condition, 'Uncovered' propounds a stark rediscovery of elated breaks and pinging highs; A-sider 'Love Struck' likens the experience of love on the dancefloor to that of an airhorning, crowd-screaming, hoop-earringed, fringed, tube-socked, Adidas tracksuit-sporting dream; the track is an inevitable boon for any DJ hoping to quickly raise the pace. Speeking of pace, the B sports 'I Need (Speed)', which, eschewing any reference to psychotropic drugs for a sec, fuses nebulaic soul vocal echoics with lurching speed garage come pure piano house bliss. Never slow down!
