    And might I add that the Psyan 12" has proven to be one of the most
    versatile records in my bag... Somewhat along the lines of Nubian Mindz 2xLP
    - it's very percussive, with very little melody or tonal elements, making it
    a great mixing tool. Also, while it's at a house(/not-house) tempo, it's
    got a fabulous d'n'b-inspired "hoover bass" effect; basically, a fabulous
    hybrid record for switching up the vibe. Great stuff.
