Devoted to the art of movement is the first record from NSS (No spiritual surrender) a duo formed by J.C. (AHD co-owner together with Damian Schwartz) and Kastil This E.P. centers it's attention towards electro, but continue AHD's heritage of giving a twist to those 90s sounds that influenced us so much, from early IDM to Detroit, all is present here. The opening track is is the one that gives the EP it's name, an acid stomper build around an electro beat that builds up and down fiercely. The track maintains it's tension throughout it's whole length by building strings and arpeggios over it's acid sequence, never transferring it's beat to a straight kick, capturing the attention since it's first second. 'Proposed Playground' is build around a more steady electro beat, strings and sounds merge themselves around the beat to create a beautifully hypnotic piece where where some background melodies tickle our ears bringing memories from IDM golden years. 'Zero One' is closing track, without leaving the electro rhythms the defined the whole EP the track is build around a phrenetic synth sequence that sets the path for the whole length, rhythms are rough and strong and it's syncopated hitting adds emphasis on that frenzy atmosphere since it's first second till the last.
