  2. A2 : Atki2 : Dragonfly
  3. B1 : Borgore : One Step Ahead
  4. B2 : Fault : Don’t Dread On Me

Terminal Dusk delivers the 3rd various artist compilation in their “color” series. The Viridian 12″ spills vibrance & drenches the dance floor with 4 heavy bricks of solid gold. Babylon System’s very own Roommate opens the record with “Conquer”. An epic anthem complete with ragga vox, big stabs & a sick bassline. Good over evil, war is not the answer cos’ only love can conquer!

Bristol’s Atki2 comes up next with “Dragonfly”. Mesmerizing bass, bollywood-esue vocals & intricate drum programming end the A side.

Flip for the B side and Isreal’s rising star, Borgore steps up & crushes with the beast known as “One Step Ahead”. Pounding bass, laser synths & a mangled 4×4 twisted to exacting standards, take note.

Ending the record is Terminal Dusk’s co-owner Fault (Line 47). “Don’t Dread On Me” showcases ragga vocals, 4×4 carnage, more dub echoes & delays than a Scientist album, beyond DJ friendly 7:00 mix, with the emphasis on bass.
