Two decades into their musical partnership known as Slam and Scottish techno titans Stuart McMillan and Orde Meikle’s show no signs of slowing down. “Minor Interruption” on Gary Beck’s Bek Audio is the twosome’s latest monster, a full-on assault brandishing a ginormous kick drum powerful enough to take down Godzilla. While it’s currently en vogue in some genres for a track to be all about the climatic breakdown, this beast is thankfully unrelenting from the first note and finds the Slam boys once again driving with the petal to the metal. As a synth line chugs away and a nasty bassline bumps along, this demon continually builds and is hell-bent on taking no prisoners. A minor interruption has never been more appreciated.
