The Wire - “Skull Disco create their own kind of non-place. Gatekeeper and Appleblim both revive rave culture as it probably felt to nobody but the most drug addled and paranoid - their bolts of bass and jagged stabs are pure dystopian fantasy, a cartoon nightmare so far removed from its source that no one could mistake it as a longing for the real thing. Shackleton’s contributions are by far the most ‘ethnic’ of the cuts, from their African inspired percussion to their Middle-Eastern melodies. Bass is the place : the only living ground beneath a graveyard of digital memories.” EP # 1 contains Shackleton’s ‘Tin Foil Sky’ and Gatekeeper’s ‘Tomb’, EP # 2 has Appleblim’s ‘Fear’ and Shackleton’s ‘Hamas Rule’.
