Impulse- Wall of Pressure (Studio !K7)

        I didn't have any idea who Impulse was when I bought
this (and i still don't), but I had heard of Third Electric 
(Rootpowder + Bolz Bolz) and Artificial Material through IDM,
so I took the chance, and wasn't disappointed.
        A.1. Wall of Pressure
                The original song is an electro number starting
        off with the rumbling of Godzilla in the distance, and
        breaking into some syncopated electro, complete with
        a sample from Roger Troutman.
        A.2. George's Garage
                This track is some click-ety electro that didn't
        hold my interest to long at 33, but at 45, was a lot more
        interesting.
        B.1. Wall of Pressure
                        (remixed by Third Electric)
                The flip side starts with the sound of some evil
        machines, plotting the overthrow of the analog world, and
        breaks into some great, dark electro.
        B.2. Wall of Pressure
                        (remixed by Artificial Material)
                A gunshot off in the distance brings this track 
        into being, which develops into funky electro, with some
        synths hovering around, almost becoming somber, but not
        quite making it. My favorite track on this EP.
