Koto was likely never going to see the light of day as a final release. That’s just the facts. Originally created by Pattern Recognition as more of a DJ tool for themselves exclusively than anything else, (and used consistently in their live sets for two years) the thought of making it a full release was never considered. Like many things though you never know how effective a song will end up being until you’ve spent some time with it in the clubs - and KOTO turned out to be a real crowd pleaser. It’s KOTO’s simplicity and crisp clear elements that make it such a dance floor hit...Tight Squelchy bass stabs work at your gut the whole way along as pitch shifting Amens roll out in hardstep patterns so foot moving it’s criminal. All the while the traditional Japanese “Koto” lick hooks you and sets the mood for the rinse!
