Walton drops his third instalment on Tectonic in fine style, calling upon Japanese influences to create a truly unique sonic across both tracks in the release. "Praying Mantis" captures all the charm of a fine Japanese watercolor painting by means of some spectacular midi-harp programming -- a low-slung grime-y masterpiece, both soothing and energizing. "Koto Riddim'" brings Japanese influences to the forefront. Walton programs classic sounding Japanese percussion sounds along with grunting vocal cuts and a charming flute-based melody. As the track drops, it switches into a more familiar, grime-based palette of sounds, deftly arranged for most dangerous impact.
