Release the Pressure

"Release the Pressure" is the third single by the English electronic duo Leftfield and the first to involve Paul Daley with writing duties after he joined the group.

The song featured reggae singer Earl Sixteen on vocals, with a lyric taken from his 1981 single "Trial and Crosses".

The trance dance FX will have you levitating and, in such a vulnerable physical and mental state, the Andy Weatherall-esque drum rolls will catch you unawares every time.

But the stately euphoric rubberised techno dub of Barnes and Daley's sequencing easily holds the sentiments aloft.

"[3] Brad Beatnik from the RM Dance Update, gave it five out of five and named it Tune of the Week, declaring it as a "cool, soulful ragga-fuelled track".
