Mercury Vapor is a smooth 135 bpm breakbeat groove inspired by the glow of mercury vapor street lights.

The green hue of this particular gas-discharge lamp adds an entrancing otherworldly glow to the street that it illuminates. The layers of swooping pads and the rich lead synth paint an illusory landscape. This transforms into a heavy groove with the introduction of the sub and breakbeat.

The B-side features a remix by lo-fi house prodigy COMPUTER DATA. It is a reimagined take on the motifs, accompanied by a slick 303 acid bassline.
