Lost 'Far East/Submarines' (HENCH Recordings)
Lost returns to HENCH for the first time since 2013, and his comeback certainly feels like a welcome one. A-side ‘Far East’ is trademark Lost fare — think whirring, cranked-up pressure and metallic bass shades — although faded vocals that seem to zoom in-and-out of focus are matched by cosmic melody patterns, giving the track a good dose of emotional weight. On the flip, ‘Submarines’ feels equipped to do plenty of damage in the club, as searing rhythm, bruising drums and menacing squarewave rumbles kick up a proper storm.
