HOT SHIT: Synkro & Faib - Inhale

Manchester hop-stepper Synkro and Russian DnB queen Faib collaborated on this bittersweet piece of 2-step brilliance. Coming off the increasingly impressive Smoke Sessions label, the releases from Synkro have been getting closer to the sounds of Burial with each passing release...and that's not necessarily a bad thing. He finds ways to stay more straight-forward and leaves the RnB vocal samples to the do the work on his hypnotic productions. Faib, a 19-year old female Russian producer, is rooted in Drum n' Bass but also conveys a significant trait that Synkro has: finding the poignancy in a track. Using a slight delay on piano, and placing every part of this track delicately in its rightful place...makes it a worthy listen, especially during the nighttime.
