The title track of the release, 'Optical Sliding' doesn't give you much time to breathe. Quickly, the sounds tease your ears as the drums pick up, then, we see an absolute skanker take place. Constantly creating switch ups in the mix, we hear Jones still maintaining the minimalism and mood throughout. An evil chuckle visits in increments on the song, making sure you are paying attention in those awkward spaces. It should be added that 'Optical Sliding' is a 2 drop showcase, with many variations of the sub bass, and is well-worth the full listen.
