Black Rose
A 1996 side of dissonant analog chords and screeching samples, reissued in 2015 with a Blawan remix.
Source Direct, from Black Rose / 12 Til 4 (1996)
"Black Rose" was released in 1996 on "Black Rose" and "12 Til 4". Fact describes sustained dissonant analog chords and raven-like screeching samples over a breakbeat from DJ Gwange's "Motionless" on Legend Records, with a sub-aquatic amen. It was a Kode9 favorite and one of their biggest tunes at the Blue Note, and Nonplus issued it with a Blawan remix in 2015, the first digital release of the original.
