Includes a full length "Carved In Those Dancing Gravestones" CD. Szare provide one of the most fully-realised and substantial releases in the Frozen Border catalogue yet with a 6 track EP. The set opens with the quasi-electroid 'Weird Sister' that recalls Carl Finlow at his best, albeit with a low-end emphasis, while 'Swarm' offsets brilliantly produced afro-tinged percussion with a crisp, clipped production style. 'Meet You' deploys straighter Tech-templates with elongated, detuned synths that provide a more Technofied variant to the filthy mis-shaped House exemplified by the likes of Kassem Mosse and Levon Vincent, before 'Belt of Rule' and 'Leaden Sky' return to more afro-centric rhythms, the former brilliantly sounding like a more brooding variant of Artwork's classic 'Red', all suffocated swing and shuffle. The set ends with 'Knives of Sina', perhaps the straightest track on offer, falling in line with the Redshape school of layered techno precision engineered for maximal dancefloor impact. Also has strains of Peverelist & Kowton's Livity Sound work.
