It was about time that Hakim Murphy and Ike Release aka Innerspace Halflife teamed up for another one of their sci-fi-schooled house escapades on Machining Dreams. The last three years have been rather productive for the pair and with releases on everything from Skudge to MOS and even an album on Syncrophone, they are on a tight roll. As expected, these latest four cuts are a little slice of a wormhole, where melodies are twisted and knotted into squelching bundles of blade running funk. Analogue drum machine beats, polyphonic melodies and hardly any digital processing make for another sublime foray into deep outer space. We love these guys...
