Global Connections - Volume 4 : Evolution

Covert Operations return to the mp3 arena once more with the ever impressive Global Connections Series, back for a fourth installment, titled "Evolution". Taking in musical talent from Russia, Poland, USA, Finland and the UK, this is a superbly diverse showcase of the worldwide drum & bass movement, with something to suit any discerning ear.

01 - Electrosoul System - Textures
Written, Produced & Engineered by Andriy Burtaev

Russia's finest returns to his routes in more ways that one with a track smashed on dubplate for what feels like an eternity, finally finding it's way to Covert Operations in a pleasing return to the sci-fi atmospherics that he was so well known for.

02 - Trisector - A Different Form
Written, Produced & Engineered by Trisector

Mellow, laid back futuristic sounds harking back to the classic days of 720 Records in this impressive, bass-heavy piece from Finnish newcomer Trisector.

03 - Lm1 - Ambient Traveller
Written, Produced & Engineered by Lm1

Covert welcomes Scottish producer LM1, a former trance artist, to Global Connections for his drum & bass debut. This superb drum & bass debut is laced with a catchy melody set over stabbing beats, and a breakdown to die for. One to watch.

04 - Genom - Adventure Island
Written, Produced & Engineered by Genom

Next up it's Genom, a talented duo hailing from Poland and currently mesmerising with their darkly techmospheric sound. Adventure Island delivers eerie synths & horns, set over distinctive metallic drums.

05 - Paralyzah - Dead Ocean
Written, Produced & Engineered by Paralyzah

Another talented artist from Russia, Paralyzah returns for his second Global Connections track with a thick slice of techy dancefloor business, packing a trancey hook and some seriously deep bass.

06 - Cutworks - Overfall
Written, Produced & Engineered by Cutworks

Soothing atmospherics are the order of the day in this lovely track from Russia's Cutworks, take some time out to the relaxing beats and some great ethereal synths.

07 - Radicall & Ktee - Anymore (Remix)
Written, Produced & Engineered by Radicall & Ktee

Ktee's beautiful vocals blend perfectly with the laid back beats of the returning Radicall in this wonderfully soulful diversion, flexing the stylistic envelope you've come to expect from Global Connections yet further.

08 - Reactiv - Sirocco
Written, Produced & Engineered by Reactiv

Mixing things up further in a dubby fashion, Reactiv of the USA opens his Covert account with Sirocco, a bassy effort packed with deep kicks, minimal snares and a simple but effective hook.

09 - Suni & Phorte - Return To Odessa Keys
Written, Produced & Engineered by Suni & Phorte. Original concept by ASC.

In a track inspired by ASC's Odessa Keys, Suni & Phorte lay out some beautiful calming sounds punctuated by occasional bass growls to create a remarkably unique composition.

10 - Deep Gemini - Deepness In The Sky
Written, Produced & Engineered by Anthony Thomas & Wayne Hay

Ending the album in style with an upbeat number, Deep Gemini - the transatlantic partnership of Tidal (UK) and Galaxi (USA) - deliver this building track driven by a plethora of effects with an electro feel and a subtly used female vocal.
