A massive set from Nigeria's CS Crew – and a set that definitely lives up to its title!

A beautiful rare club cut from Evans Pyramid – a track that's nicely loose in the way it approaches the groove – letting things build slowly in nice layers of sound, with a riffing guitar and waves of piano – and vocals that just come in a bit at the start and end!
