Music for Nightcrawlers: Mike Agent X Clark and “The Dark Side”

Friends of 5 Mag from the north, Collective Rhythm Network mines for some deep Detroit gems on this new cut augmenting an already beautiful catalog.

Newly lied from Mike “AgentThe Dark Side“,” a single on 45 rpm-cut black wax with a remix from ADMN. If the title wasn’t a clue, “The Dark Side” is DARKanimated by a growing electro nite-lite bassline and studiously constructed rhythms architected by Mr. Clark. This is 3am music for nightcrawlers and navigating dangerous night drives.

On the flip is a remix from fellow Detroit soul ADMN, who roughs it up with a churning groove and bionic techno effects that will make you feel the strobe before you see it.

Everything here is essential: from the label, from the artist, the remixer, the tracks, the record, everything.
