Dunno about the rest of you, but this gives me absolutely massive Pendulum vibes, especially from their Immersion album. Reminds me so much of Watercolour from the NFS Hot Pursuit 2010 soundtrack that it's hurts in the best way. Metrik's absolutely goddamn killing it, what a beat! If any of y'all see a yellow 1997 Lamborghini Diablo SV out there, come and race me! Mexico awaits! EDIT: This entire comment section gives me life. You all have excellent taste.

They couldn’t be chosen because they’ve disbanded 😢 I liked 5’s intro sequence but it was nowhere near as incredible as 2, 3 and 4’s intros were. It just didn’t hit like it would’ve done if it’d had Fred V music.

For those people looking for more like this track, I would recommend looking up "Hospital Records" who are the DnB label Horizon (Microsoft) partner with to bring the DnB tracks.
