Big, bad & HEAVY punk-industrial Sleng Teng versions from the Reducer / Human Aerial corner, previously heard on another RUSS 12" from Reducer a few years back, but here in extra-naughty Discomix format, along with the wickedly rugged 'Sensaround' and it's subsequent Dub cut. Pow!

Sirens wail, basslines thunder, vocals roar.
This is Reducer, the og anarcho london-dub-punks from 1980summin-onwards >> still rocking & rolling (in a dubwise kinda way), still causing trouble.
Shouts to Hooly and the Gang.

Make sure you dig that Human Aerial 12" we have on the site here, and check us for LAST copies of that Reducer USB pack (not just any USB pack, an actually good one, with bonus features and all sorts), and last copies of this 12" too.

**Self-released by Reducer on their RUSS imprint in a continued spiritual association with Bokeh Versions**

REDUCER'S LAST AUTONOMOUS RELEASE • LTD ED 250 WHITE VINYL • RECORDED 1986 & 1987 • PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED, UNHEARD & UNREMASTERED • ORIGINAL 12" 45 REGGAE DISCOMIX • THESE ARE THE LAST ARCHIVE QUALITY RECORDINGS WE HAVE- BOTH WERE RECORDED AS "LIVE" AS POSSIBLE SO TO RETAIN THE POWER, ENERGY & SPONTANEITY WHICH IS THE ESSENCE OF REDUCER.

SLENG TING: This discomix version of Sleng Teng was recorded before Rich joined the band & thus has a Snake only vocal, and features a keyboard bass & vocal over dubs - which is the only time overdubs were ever used on a Reducer track.

SENSAROUND: Was recorded during a "break" in recording of other material & was written spontaneously & played just once, as it features only Rich on vocal, it makes a good balance to the Snake only track. It was never performed live.
