Drum Tracks (Or journey to the Earth core)

What does a hardcore techno track need, really? Or let us reframe the question, what does techno, no, what does music need, really? A drum, a good drum... yeah, and that it's! True for music (any maybe life) in general, but especially for the hardcore variant of techno.

Because hardcore always has been about stripping techno down to the bare goods (usually no cheesy vocals, unnecessary funk, house shuffles or other shenanigans in early hardcore.)
so let us strip it down even further, until there is just the drum. The distorted hardcore "kick", hammering, hammering on, hammering on and on... and on... and on and on! and on!

Well, this is not exactly true for these tracks. There are few, sparse, and minimal... "other things". Metal hits, clanks, clonks, a bit of percussion... and noise, lot's of noise!

In some parts of the tracks. But beyond that, it is one long, wild, one hour and seven bass drum ride, so i hope you paid the tickets for this fare, folks! Segmented into 25 "shorter" tracks.

And, overally, it is an excursion in kick drum research, because there are not your usual hard techno or gabber kicks, but very experimental.
