E-130 is lowkey one of the best dance tracks I've heard in years. Multiple times on this album I am in disbelief shouting out loud to myself. Incredibly visceral and satisfying, hypnotic.

Simple and elemental; specific elements (bass drum beat/pattern, repetitive electronic figure/glitch/drone, guitar pattern overlays) presented simply and without pretence but in a structure that works and mesmerises...simple! Try it yourself to see how complex "simple" really is.
I know pundits like to throw around terms like 'breathtaking' and 'transcendent' with all the restraint of a toddler with a can of silly string, but d*mn if I can think of a more fitting set of adjectives.
Don't think I've ever heard anything quite like this. Pharaoh is the type of virtuoso that doesn't need to blow you out with tech to leave you speechless. Got me feeling emotions n sh*t. Ghuughra
