Who is Marshall Applewhite and what is this new Sludge sound coming out of Detroit? This is the sound of Sludge - raw, dark, measured - is it Techno? Acid? Electro? Decide for yourself with two new tracks, one remix and one reworking that's available on vinyl for the first time.
"Underwear Drawer (Yosucka Mix)" is an exclusive first play of a dancefloor smasher. A dark banger with haunting vocals and Marshall's distinctive Sludge groove, it's a 5am party classic. "We Are Disease" comes next. In the same vein as "Leave Earth" album tracks "Smash" and "Majestic 12", this one's electro-inspired. The banging 808 drums, the stabs, the vocoder vox reminiscent of 2001 Space Odyssey's Hal 9000, this is pure 808 bliss. "UFOs On The Floor" is a dancefloor smasher featuring Bendii, with a stomping groove and recurring chant, this is pure Sludge. "Leave With Us (YoSucka Mix)" was originally featured on the first release from Detroit's How To Kill label in 2013. With its haunting vocal and Techno backbone, it gathered support from the likes of Mike Huckaby, Paul Woolford, Derek Plaslaiko and Michael Servito.
