Premiere: Josh Wink returns to his Ovum home with some acidic fury
Will you 'Resist'?
Just over two decades ago, Josh Wink released a track called 'Higher State of Consciousness' and it's pretty safe to say that dance music was never the same again. It ripped around soundsystems worldwide and it still continues to do so now.
Wink has had an illustrious career since and his label Ovum Recordings, has always acted as a hub for incredible, innovative house and techno. In recent years though, the boss has been releasing via a wealth of different imprints.
After brief jaunts on Intec, Boysnoize Records and R&S, he returns to his Ovum home with the no-holds-barred 'Resist' EP and here we see a return to those ferocious, frisky acid roots.
There are a couple of venomous Truncate remixes of the title track but the original mix is where the heat is really at. The acidic bassline whips around like like a snake-charmer's mutant melody and the demonic vocal is repeated and looped until the point of meltdown.
It's exactly the sort of track you'd expect Wink to make and we're really fucking happy he has.
The 'Resist' EP by Josh Wink will be released on April 21, you can preorder here
