180-gram vinyl. The ninth 12" in 50Weapons' 11-part finale combines two driving forces of contemporary techno, Benjamin Damage and Truncate -- a deadly combination for any DJ's bag. Benjamin Damage's "Battle" sees him layer his hyperactive grooves over a thumping kick with a small but effective acid line topping things off. Truncate's "86" is a massive track that Dave Sumner aka Function previously used in his Berghain 07, obviously serving as one of the highlights there. Its creeping synths build up to a climax in typical Truncate fashion, with huge, compressed kick drums pounding the dancefloor mercilessly.
