But it's the beats that give the album its unique stamp. The muted five-note motif in 'Iron Galaxy's verses; the wandering keyboard lines and muffled vocal samples in 'A B-Boy's Alpha'; the skittering percussion in 'Raspberry Fields'; it all works towards making Vast and Vordul's tales of the Big Apple feel more like they're pulled from Day After Tomorrow-era New York than the present-day version.'
