Footnotes
Triumph - The band takes their time leaving Triumph territory, builds up a blissful dnb theme, and finally settles into Ape territory.
Hope - A pretty dub-heavy Hope, balancing the dnb-heavy jams earlier in the segment. Magner develops great blissful flute patch lines that gradually build to a gorgeous conclusion.
Crickets - Patient trance gradually builds in intensity. Magner crafts the perfect atmosphere while Barber builds to a mini-crescendo. The jam, as do many of the greats from this year and tour, enters a brief type two dub passage before it begins to build up to a Run Like Hell intro.
Run Like Hell - Absolutely demented trance. Magner’s synth lines are one-of-a-kind, reminiscent of a video game sound effect. The jam remains in sinister minor-key territory until the final minutes when Brownie drops the Crickets bass line.
