This 3-track EP by Ben Cook under the alias Stranger, released in 2002 on Grayhound Recordings, is deep and dubby. The plunging bass, hazy soundscape, and subtly wavering percussion create a psychedelic groove that, as the title suggests, is enveloped in a deep fuzz. Rather than building to dramatic peaks, this record gradually transforms the atmosphere of the dancefloor, with "In A Dark Room" particularly excelling in its dark, damp dub sensibility. It's an underground weapon for the late hours, blending West Coast house, trip-hop, and dub in a way characteristic of Grayhound.
