An EP that excites me for the rest of PoD's stuff, but that doesn't work very well on its own. 1 is a great albeit slow opener that I'd see nicely starting a much longer set than this EP. Thankfully it is continuous with 2 which is the highlight here, nice dub techno once it kicks in but that doesn't quite reach the level of jam and feels not ambitious enough with too few sounds and synths. 3 is a mistake and breaks both the continuity and the mood with a boring, overlong generic track. 4 is also overlong with a meh intro and a semi-annoying last minute or two, but the bulk of the track is sweet and bouncy with a lovely round bass, but again not a jam. Record is very nicely produced and shows potential, but it's only a 2.7 really.
