Bristol's Hodge & Facta are a pair of rising young producers vying for attention on this collaborative 12", and the resulting tension turns the atmosphere electric. "Spheres of Costa Rica" draws a glancing sample of traditional chanted music into a dubbed-out, sidewinding riddim that seems to sink deeper and deeper, drawing the listener's mind and feet along with it. Flip the record and "Visions" mesmerizes further still: it's swung drums summon the ghosts of UK garage, but blast them out into deep space, where fragmentary whorls of noise and firestorm sub-bass erupt.
