New York residing DJ/Producers John Barera & Will Martin update their longstanding body of collaborative work with their first 2MR release since last year's exceptional `Proceed To The Root' sophomore album_ And it might just be their best work to date.Continuing the celestial theme of their last EP `History Of Space'; the EP is the result of a whole new writing technique and heller time spent jamming on Will's Chroma Polaris synth.

Comprising four tracks that simply ooze machine soul and loose-limbed groovemanship, `Life, The Heavens & The Earth' is an ageless document that digs deep into the foundations while staring out into the cosmos.The tone is set by `The Meaning'.

Outer planetary electroid savoir faire; its crisp breaks are countered by the bulbous textured bassline throughout.

It's followed by the title track `Life, The Heavens & The Earth'; a spatial excursion built around a classic break and coloured with poignant arpeggiated cascades.Deeper into the EP we glide to strike warehouse gold on the venomous acid of `In The Depths Of Madness', a layered analog jam that writhes and slinks dynamically in the spirit of Pierre, before closing with a track the duo feel is their most accomplished composition to date: `Searching For Time'.

Not just a title we can all relate to but a poignant emotional workout that touches your soul in the same way you first heard the instrumental of Information Society's `Running'.Beautiful emotive electronica from a duo who keep getting better with every release.

The journey to the root continues_.
