Tracklist: Resist! (Extended 12" Mix) Resist! (Utter Kunt Mix) Resist! (U.k Bonus Beats) I Keep On Making The Same Mistake String Reprise Fresh from beasting the end-of-year charts with her 'I Miss Your Love' remix project, Ghost Assembly, aka Manchester DJ and writer Abigail Ward, is back with a limited double A-side 12” - First we got “Resist” - Laid down quickly and angrily after attending a demo in Manchester city centre, it captured the galvanising spirit of protest through a 111bpm acid chugger that will leave dancefloors of an ALFOS or Optimo persuasion begging for more “uncompromising machine funk at its crudest…303s twist around each other whilst a taut, snaking 707 groove underpins unexpected blasts of Arabic rhythm”. Picking up the pace to 120, “I Keep on Making the Same Mistake” sees Ghost Assembly returning to her string-drenched sad banger comfort zone. Keening vocals supplied by Hazel Grove are chopped up, tormented and eventually hurled down a K-hole as the strings build and the drama escalates. When the credits roll on this cinematic masterpiece we hear a wistful French lesbian talking about 'borrowed bliss'. “A future comedown classic also sounds good slowed down to 33rpm”. Show more
