Regular Cross Rhythms radio listeners will be familiar with Rawsrvnt, hailing out of Florida. 'In Rare Form' was a worship project and a turntable hit. This latest offering is more of an extended EP, with Rawsrvnt offering tracks such as "Breathe", "Holiness" and "Submit" with new mixes and instrumentals of each. One reason for the project is that instrumentals were often demanded by those wishing to include Rawsrvnt's worship remixes into their own services. The "Breathe" mix featuring singer Lisa McClendon brings a refreshing and pure air vibe to the already classy original. Audrey Assad adds some equally potent and outstanding vocals over the top of Rawsrvnt in "Holiness". Other different sounding remixes are added in to both tracks too. Rawsrvnt adds in two other tracks - the laid back "Take Me" featuring Naiomy, one of the excellent worship group Harmony from Crossover Church. We end on a high, with the more lively and guitar-heavy "Ring That" as Rawsrvnt lets rip with a rolling, dirty south, jump-up track.
