Phillip Charles - Seminal Vessel / 2600 A.D. / Controlled Input

  • Share
  • *Back Catalog Review* The first release on Hallucination Limited comes from Phillip Charles, and 2 very unique tracks to get this great label rolling. On the a-side is Seminal Vessel. It begins with a solid kick and some rattling hats and snares. The track builds with a nice deep baseline and a smooth soundscape of sweeping sound effects and cute intricate melody. Deep into the track, a hypnotic layer of strings give the production that extra edge. A great production. On the flip is firstly 2600 A.D. A deeper production, this track beigns with a standard 4/4 drum pattern followed by some smooth vocal and sound effects. Deep into the track the effects gain intensity and begin to become more erratic in a pleasing way. Following is Controlled Input. A quirky production due to some unique drum patterns and eerie effects. A subtle bouncy baseline gives the production a good drive, but it is the use of unique sounds and swirling effects that are a highlight of this track.
