From the brutal, distorted tones of opener ‘TinitusFitzpatrick uses the extended EP to it's fullest. The dub techno ‘Sub Dubbed’ marries harsh digital sounds with familiar dub aesthetics but sidesteps the Basic Channel model and delivers something which the producer has definitely made his own.

From the aggressively disorientating stabs of ‘Redline’ through to the sparse, rolling tech-funk of ‘Xenomorph’ and ‘En Salada’,

Fitzpatrick’s distinctly fever-dream feel runs throughout “Insurgent Series” and, paired with his superb approach to placing sounds in the mix, makes for compelling listening.
