Clone offshoot Royal Oak strike gold again with two tracks of idiosyncratic house moments from Glasgow's Marco Bernardi. "Innocence Of Pleasure" crafts a multitude of disparate elements and when combined they form something hypnotic. Reverberant string samples bounce between off kilter beats in need of a buff as the track opens before a rousing chord pattern accrues some emotive weight as we head into deep Detroit bizniz. The point where an electronic key melody arrives briefly will delight your senses. The flipside title track, aided by the echoed tones of Aux 88's Keith Tucker, features the sort of driving raw techno rhythm that immediately grabs your attention. Adding some injection is a percussive shuffling augmented by subtle acid bleeps and insistent bass throbs. Issued on nice dark green clear vinyl, this twelve comes with the added bonus of a free digital download.
