Gravity is rigorously engineered dub-techno architecture, its low end and spatial design precise enough to function equally on a soundsystem and on headphones. The engineering never feels separate from the groove. 'Fragile' runs twelve minutes and is the clearest demonstration on it of what the spatial design is for. Every carefully placed echo and bass movement deepens the hypnosis.

Berlin reduced to pressure and mist, and Henke at his most architectural. A shade colder than Hongkong.
