CD reissue of the last album from Ramleh's Anthony Di Franco, whose long-running solo JFK project has been dedicated to the kind of concrete mixed rhythmic pummel countless others would almost kill for since the cassette network culture of the 1980s. Between then and now, JFK has had several albums released featuring either archive or his latest works at that particular time. These have been endorsed by labels such as Harbinger Sound, Peripheral, Chondritic Sound, and others plus, more importantly, have signaled a consistency in Anthony's dedication to exploring those spaces where vast blocks of sound crumble into heavily polluted rivers of anger, despair, and frustration. It's an immersive sound that, naturally, shares a little common ground with Ramleh yet emphasizes the monstrous chasms that can be drawn from a sturdy combo of bass-churn and galvanized beats primed from a nightmarish dancefloor. The CD version of Weapon Design presents ten devastating tracks, two of which did not appear on the acclaimed vinyl version from 2018 and are exclusive to this version. Mastered and cut by Matt Colton at Alchemy, London.
