Heaven to Darkness EP is the latest in a long line of lethal dark techno releases on Heftys infamous Darker Sounds label. Showcasing a solid array of Darker Sounds artists, Heaven to Darkness takes you on a steep descent to a refreshingly original techno underworld with a brutal mix of raw underground grooves and pitch-black end-of-the-world atmospherics. From the very beginning, the album lures you in with a restrained ambient opening that rapidly changes tone and sets course for eventual destruction after being introduced to some wickedly raw bass-lines. From them on, one thing becomes apparent: while the deftly curated selection of tracks range from floor-shattering to shadowy, it is the EPs attitude to not shy away from pounding, driving beats that remains a constant and ingeniously ties the album together. This freedom to get raw and dirty with the bass-lines and kicks, and then lurk in the whispering shadows after is what really sets the album apart, and speak volumes for the creative workings of the Darker Sounds Crew. Truly a product of the underground, the Heaven to Darkness EP pulls no punches in delivering a banging mix of driving, pitch-black techno that will keep you guessing til the end.
