Everything Ramadanman touches at the moment becomes gold. Put simply, the (still very) young man is a genius, constantly pulling from various genres to keep his work new and exciting yet somehow retains a large amount of consistency and class. This release sees the Leeds based producer return to Aus imprint for a second outing, on a collaborative effort with Applepips head honcho Appleblim. "Void 23" is pitch black, 4am techno that carries your senses on a journey down a deep dark tunnel of thumping basslines pressured against snares that collapse on top the galloping percussion. It's also heavily full of vibes and clocks in at a little over nine minutes. This alone is reason enough to purchase the 12" but Aus deliver a real treat in securing the services of Carl Craig to deliver a flipside edit that indulges in just the right amount of tweakage. The little changes Craig implements in the rhythm structure succeed in embellishing the overall feel with more urgency. The release marks another A+ plus outing from Aus Music as well as Ramadanman and Appleblim, which effortlessly joins the canon of music that will be played in clubs for many years to come.
