After creating the World, the Gods wondered where they could hide the key of Life. One of them paused and said: “There is one place on earth where the Humans will never look. Their own heart”.

Master of Deception EP – Tom Hades – Impact Mechanics Release number forty two for Impact Mechanics, this time featuring the talents of one of the most respected techno producers Tom Hades, fresh from his hot remix for Wehbba. Master mind Tom Hades has produced on labels such as Drumcode, Hell Yeah, 8 Sided Dice. This EP brings us the "Original Mix" of the title cut; Krank a gritty, straight forward Techno mover and the "Master of deception," a more driving and upfront version. The real gem here however, Krank, is a mega bass, slow-rising minimal flavored tech house track with a massive bassline. Atmospheric and dark in all the right ways. Clips can be found here
