Review: Sir Hiss and 4AM Kru set up a dialogue between London and Bristol, a stellar dialectic giving rise to a supreme form of lo-fi jungle. 'Earshots' samples a bhangra vocal cry, mixing it up with the scratchy factory movements of cut-throat jungular breaks. It marks a break from Sir Hiss' usual grime parlance, and adds to a refreshingly-named new series handled by their parent label Embrace The Real, called 'No More Mailouts', an explicit callout of PR in the electronic music industry which aims to lead by example. Power to em.

Duos EP (12")
Cat: TMR 019. Rel: 19 Jun 24
Review: Proper pristine, technical drum & bass here from the Transmute crew, expending far more effort than most junglists in fleshing out the body, weight and polish of each constituent sound. Mostly forgoing sampled breakbeats, the 'DUOS' EP hears refreshingly unusual sound design choices dance over a more straight-up rollage in the rhythm section(s). From the opening washer pads of Abstract Drumz & Optimystic's 'Energy To The Universe', to the closing techstep clanks of Sicknote & Escher's 'Trouble Part 2', this EP brings a variety of emotions to a gestalt whole, unified by its consistently clean production.

Remixes EP (red marbled vinyl 12")
Cat: FOKUZ 110. Rel: 11 May 23
Review: The legendary Fokuz label outta the Netherlands hits a 110th release and opts for a selection of remixes from various artists. AirK & Cephei open up with 'Desire,' a slick roller with booming bass and epic synths. Break then comes through with tight remix of A2 Soligen & Type 2 's 'Can't Go' complete with expertly design hits. Break then goes it alone on the original 'Coming 4U' with its low end oscillations and closes out the EP back in remix mode. His take on 'What Are You' is a roaming, textural affair with twisted leads and flurries of toms.

Review: Hyaku marks the 100th vinyl release for Samurai Music, so shout out to the crew for staying dedicated to the format. It also celebrates nearly 17 years of dedication to quality music and timeless design and, for this milestone, the label has assembled producers who epitomise the current Samurai sound.

Together, these contributions form a diverse collection that highlights the artistry and innovation of this talented crew while also reflecting the journey Samurai has been on for all these years. Here's to many more.

Darker Flowers (12")
Cat: RSBY 003. Rel: 30 Jul 24
Review: Rosebay Music presents 'Darker Flowers', a fresh V/A project showcasing four hotly-tipped new school producers, all of whom represent a hauntingly soulful drum & bass sound with class and elegance. Romanian wunderkind Azotix has been making moves recently with his ultra-clean future bangers, but here he demonstrates another side of his sound with the beautiful 'Hurt'. Styke and label boss Submorphics, meanwhile, link up in The Hague for a unique collab, 'Lonely Dub', channeling dub techno and moody film noir D&B. LO! represents Chicago with the interstitial banger 'Transition', bringing an early 2000s sound into 2024, while Imo-Lu finishes things off with the gorgeous, ye deadly bassbin rattler 'Inhibition'. Epic soundsystem music straight out of Glasgow.

Steel Circuit Chronicles Volume 1 (blue & white splattered vinyl 12")
Cat: G2G 022. Rel: 07 Feb 24
Review: Good 2 Go bite down hard into 2024 with a brand new series entitled Steel Circuit Chronicles. A concept that sounds as good as its title suggests, we kick off with this exceptional deep jungle triple-header. The legendary Blame takes the lead with the percussive slab of drama that is 'Robot Revolution', a cut that packs some serious layered drum welly. He's backed up all the way by two more impressive individuals; G2G bossman Lee Croucher dons his Sync Dynamix alias for the atmospheric dream 'Don't Give Up' while mid 90s Ram artist Flatliner ends his own hazy, cosmic twist to conclude the EP. Timeless and stunning.

Review: Chase & Status and Stormzy coming together was always going to be huge. One rules the charts, the other the clubs, and between them they cooked up a massive single that got heard everywhere all summer long, including a special live performance of it in Ushuaia Ibiza. Now you can own it on a slab of vinyl that has been cut nice and loud, which is perfect for the tune - the bass is devastating, the bars from Stormzy are hard, the energy is dark and unrelenting and it's the perfect sort of jungle cross over sound that will continue to be heard everywhere well into 2025.

Review: The young but already impressive Headset label is back with a third outing and it is a various artists affair with a distinctly futuristic edge. Kami O's 'Blutak' rides on lurching rhythms that sway up and down with great force as percussion percussion and wiry electronics bring it to life. smiff's 'Blinker' is a broken beat with thudding kick and hits and clanging metallic sounds while Sweet Philly's 'Acid Siren Tool' is a raved-up jam ready to blow up the dance floor. Dubmonger & 9 Tails Fox tap into an old school,. high energy judge sound with darting rhythms and drilling sub bass nailing you to the floor on 'No Profit.'

Roffadamn Jungle (translucent green vinyl double 12" + MP3 download code)
Cat: PRSPCT 298. Rel: 17 Aug 23
Review: Roffa than ruff! Netherlands craftsman Mike Redman (AKA Deformer) unites local MCs Bigman Scep, Swift and Dart for this big singalong skank-out. Tailored for festivals, it pays homage to the roots with big party energy. Meanwhile on the remix front we're bombarded with an all-star cast as UK OGs Bizzy B and Ed Rush both get stuck in alongside Mike under his Deformer alias. Bizzy is all about the modern rave twist while Ed Rush gets an old Bad Company style and Deformer goes all-out breakcore. Elsewhere on this double 12" opus we see Mackadena get the breaks on, Rotterdam Terror Corps go full hardcore and Akira teasing us with a little twist of gabber. High grade Dutch business.

Review: Weaving and writhing through the genres, joining dots you never knew existed, Montreal's Adam Hodgins dons his Sabola alias for this beautiful multi-genre mini album. Touching on experimental areas of his other projects such as Solitary Dancer, Gunnera and N/Y/X, across the six tracks we go from delicate, disarming Boards Of Canada style slo-mo fractal soul ('Southern Digital') to full-on jungle rinse outs (Tim Reaper's remix of 'First Step To Peace') by way of cosmic breaks ('A Hysterical Laugh') And that's just half of the record. Stunning in all directions.

Review: Diosis Decibel roll out another techno D&B fusion affair with the bossman Sam C once again at the controls. 'Under The Radar' sets the scene. A pummelling 165BPM 4x4 / breakbeat swagger, it punches holes in every wall of your house before it even comes out of the sleeve. These vibes persist across the 12" as Sam goes deep on the hypnotic 'Electric Flow' and euphoric on 'Eternal' while Italian-in-Romania Madmatik lays down some psy gold on 'Lacrima'. Exceptional.

Review: The Time Is Now to welcome bass legend Samurai Breaks to your ears; the artist's latest record 'Turbo Diesel' is a splittingly fast garage come bassline EP, one boldly unafraid of the upper ranges of the proverbial tempo fader. Described as "another cut of face-melting goodness" by the Shall Not Fade sister label, the likes of 'Exercise Riddim' and 'Wheel Up' bring raw and confident rave sampleage to a brisk doubletime 150-odd BPM, while B-siders 'Turbo Diesel' and 'Supa Wobbly Shedda' hear a seamless mix into juke-footed drum & bass come bassline. We're ordered to "pop the trunk" amid siren blares on the former track, not long before we're bundled into the back and taken on an earnapped ride, the latter track indeed shedding any prior inhibitions we'd harboured.

Review: Samurai Breaks is the alias of Sam Langley, who's been throwing down some wild style rave gear for the likes of Sheffield's Off Me Nut amongst many others. Having graced Hooversound last year alongside Nova Cheq in 2022, now he's going alone with this six-strong testament to the frenetic new forms rave is being moulded into. The breaks, the hoover stabs, the MC samples - it's all in there, but there's a twitchy modernism to the way Langley juggles his source material which feels incredibly fresh. You can hear the whisper of footwork influence in the needlepoint rhythmic flex of 'Mystery Wobbler (dub)' while jump up casts its influence over gnarly shocker 'Skippy' and of course there's plenty of jungle vibes flying around this madcap EP from a fierce new talent.

Wavelord Bizniz EP (translucent green marbled vinyl 12")
Cat: TIN 055RP. Rel: 16 May 24
Review: The Time Is Now label single-handed ushered in a new era of garage if you ask us. That was a few years ago but the label continues to lead from the fort here with a new EP from Samurai Breaks & Napes who make their label debut in explosive fashion. They are skilled studio talents who are nudging at the boundaries of the current UK bass sound and here they hybridise bassline, jungle and garage. You won't easily be able to fit these into one stylistic box but they will do damage on the floor, from the ghetto restlessness of the opener to the manic melodies of 'Correct Technique' and onto the turbocharged 'FrogMob'. Thrilling stuff.

Review: Swedish d&b pioneer Seba continues to roll out more reissues from his Secret Operations label vaults, taking back over 15 years to some of his most career-defining work. The swaggering opener 'Your Deepest Love', the ice cold finale piece 'Legion' and the breath-taking 'Forever' all take us back to the mid-2000s (2006/7 to be precise) when Seba and his label really started to make their own independent mark in drum & bass. For good measure and balance he's also including 'Inkasso'. A little more recent in his discography at only eight years old, but just as hard hitting and timeless - Seba always hits the spot whatever era you find him at.

Review: Seba & Paradox reunite on Metalheadz with their first joint release for the label in over five years, reaffirming the synergy of two of drum & bass's most distinct voices. Known alike for their brooding musicalities and breakbeat precision, the pair unite styles once more on 'Cypher' and 'Orlean', resulting in a razor-sharp two-tracker through surgical drum edits and cleaving depths; the kinds of immersions both artists are celebrated for. Their return feels both timely and timeless, reminding listeners of the subtle power in expertly crafted, uncompromising d&b.

Review: Freq modding, circuit-bending breakstep from rudeboy UK hardcore act Secret Squirrel (Julian Cobb), whose cheeky mixing and breaks-blending game has known few bounds since 1992. After a long hiatus after 1995, Cobb is back to put up a propulsory cyber-ragga ransom, challenging any would-be outlaw to a vicious duel. A-sider 'Something New' is playful and needle-wearing enough, but the going really gets tough on 'Sick Sensation', which plumbs eurrghy sub basses to whose frequencial lows we didn't it think possible to stoop. 'Shockwave Sauce' teases sultry rhythm & rave (sadly unabbreviable, given the vibe, to R&R) before giving way to wild cutoff-filtering chordbreak skankery. 'Spike Up' rounds things off as the sonic nail bomb and B-sider contrarian's choice.

Review: Fresh from his recent foray on Law's Repertoire, Senses makes his debut on ASC and Dan Azimuth's Curvature label with four exceptional deep jungle explorations. All laced with a positive sense of energy and vibrancy, each track has a fresh vibe and character to it. 'String Theory' is the consummate opening gambit with its full strength breakbeat charge, 'Cosmic Telemetry' guides us through the stars with its eyes closed without ever losing its way while 'Papillon' is a woozy-but-cheerful cut you might have found on a label like Subtitles years ago. Finally 'Past Lives' brings us back down to earth with grace and soul. Think PFM and you're on the right astral plain. Time's up!

Review: Once was a time the term settle down had connotations of easing back, cooling off and winding things down a little and maybe even consider aligning with some sort of normality (whatever that is). Nowadays thanks to Greg Hepworth it simply means - brock the heck out and tear up the dance! Seriously have you heard a bad tune from him since Ulterior Motive split? We haven't. And certainly not here... 'The Dun Dudda' is pure happy chopper with some big jungle flavours in the vocal sample and overall swagger of the cut. 'Wipeout' has more hardcore energy about it. Unrelentless rave chaos. What a wild way to launch a new label and change the meaning of another word. Once was a time when Guidelines had connotations of order and following protocol and maybe even consider aligning with some sort of rules...

Review: Shadow Child mints his new label TBC with a rave-ready release that taps into playful jungle influences with driving club rhythms that are likely to go down a storm over summer and beyond. Early support from heavyweights like Scuba, Horse Meat Disco and Gerd Janson mean you may have already heard some of these jams and also hint at the EP's broad appeal. Standout tracks are, well, all of them. 'The Street' is a nimble stepper with pruning basslines, 'In My Dreams' is a percussive fenny with another brilliantly old school low end, and an untitled gem brings rave-ready pianos and old school energy. 'Bubble' flips the script with a rugged bass-driven house workout.

Review: Silent Force Records unleash a brand new series SFR Titans and its down to the mighty giant Sicknote to launch it. Naturally he tears the series a new one before it's even started. 'Craw' takes the lead as Sicky links with old mate and long-time collaborator Escher for some tense, emotional volatility. For 'Lates' on the B-side old Notey chops goes solo and takes us proper darkside. Think 'Angel Fell'-era Dilli with a slice of old Digital and you're in the right armshouse. Titanic.

Review: Impressively intimidating, futuro-synthetic drum & bass from rising producer Simula. The ‘Dogma’ EP for Dance Macabre demonstrates the contemporary blood-edge limits of where the drum & bass sound may be taken today. Following up a welcome string of crossover single successes with the likes of rappers Bou and Bru-C - the track ‘You & I’ especially - Simula riffs on an established chilly and rancorous sound, also seizing the opportunity to demonstrate what he can pull of as a producer of his own accord. With only one rapper in tow this time - even then, Maksim’s vocals are heavily processed on ‘Process', having been made to sound like an exosuited borg ready to enact some sinister protocol, as the lyrics do suggest - the likes of ‘Cold Shoulder’, ‘Macabre’ and ‘Attack Mode’ evince the feeling of a producer with a thoroughly stark audial vision; Simula’s style is singularly glassy, cryonic, spatious, his use of space and imaging uncanny, his deployment bass sparing yet menacing.

Review: Having set our world alight with his third Ilian Tape 12", 2012, back in the spring, Munich man Skee Mask delivers another essential collection of loose-limbed, broken techno workouts. Typically, he's on point from the word go, enveloping swinging, off-kilter techno breakbeats with swirling chords and cascading melodies on brilliant opener "Inti". His love of African-influenced polyrhythms is explored further on the ghostly, percussion-rich club cut "Kappelberg Chant" (which, incidentally, makes great use of choral chants), while "Routine" is a warm, loved-up and evocative tribute to rave-era British breakbeat-house. His debt to British dance music's formative years also comes to the fore on killer proto-jungle jam "Skreet Lvl Dub".

Review: An incredible release from Skeptical right here: harnessing the vocal power of Collette Warren he's created two instantly distinctive cuts that tremble and rumble with the same soul and stark presence as early Roni material. The sharp, pneumatic "Desire" comes with more of a jazzy edge while "Always Been Mine" is much more spacious and dreamier. "Tundra" and "Turning Point" provide perfect balance as Skeptical flexes his darkest of muscles. As with all Soul:R releases, this really is very special.

Review: Man like Skeppy doing the gosh-darned thing! Swinging high from the Rubi rafters, his new label hits the 002 release with heavyweight charm and dark soulful panache. 'Rhubarb' is the dreamy cut of the bunch, easing us in gently with its gentle swirling strings, before 'Capsize' pushes us deep under the water with its robust murky militancy. Finally we have 'Foiled'. A classic minimal Skeppy set-up with a little nod towards the traditional jump-up sound, it's yet another open-and-shut case at the Rubi supreme court today.

Abstract Venom (12" + MP3 download code)
Cat: PRSPCT 287. Rel: 24 Jan 25
Review: Andrew Bowen, formerly of AnD and Shadows, debuts a fresh EP for a fresh alias: Slave To Society. An entirely unique exploration of breakneck jungle and bass, 'Abstract Venom' explores the extremities of the harshest facets of darkside electronica, with a self-proclaimed disregard "for BPMs, rules, regulations, or trends". While that claim might be somewhat hyperbolic, there is some truth to it. We hear vestiges of punk, industrial, noise, and experimental music in this overarchingly drum & bass project; while at the same time, cuts like the title track and 'Tribulations Of An Alien' indulge everything from rule-ribbing polyrhythms to mega-tight, neuromantic breakcore.

Review: Sleepnet is the now, firmly established solo alias of Noisia's Nik Roos. Splitting off from the trio after their disbanding in 2020, this is the second edition in what is now set to be a continual slew of releases under the name, the self-referential Sleepnet coming as the follow-up to 2021's First Light (which housed the no less badass, era-defining seraphic neurofunk cut 'Angel Blade' in its ranks). With only four out of seven tunes counting as solo endeavours here, this is Roos' first outing under the name in three years. After a dramatic introductory piano expurgation on the A1, 'Doorway', Sleepnet hears Sleepnet raise his snapneck audio-synaptics to all-out haywire levels. The mood is continual (as if we're picking up from where we left off in 2021, well into the throes of an evolutory, hi-tech (post-) vision quest) as the uncanny gurgle design of 'Face Dancer', and/or the brisk angelo-triumphalism of 'Surrender', stand out as the most biblically impressive of the bunch.

Happy (Hammond) (7")
Cat: DINK 015. Rel: 22 Jun 21
Review: Random Rap Records offshoot Dinked 45 has hit gold with 'Happy (Hammond)', the first single in seven years from Chris Read and keyboardist Rob Barron's occasional So Much Soul Players project. As the title suggests, it's a cheeky and cheery Hammond funk reinvention of Pharrell Williams' classic which features Barron playing the famous melody - alongside a few wild solos - atop a sweaty, bass-heavy, breakbeat-driven dancefloor groove. It's a simple idea brilliantly executed all told and a guaranteed party-starter to boot. Over on the flip you'll find a slightly tougher, shorter 'Instrimental Mix' that cuts down the use of the melody in favour of elongated Hammond chords and more prominent beats, as well as a short 'Bonus Beats' drum track for DJs who like to get busy in the mix.

Comprising pure drummage and slight elements of hardcore throughout, each cut hits hard and unapologetically. Those looking for a little mystic charm and space should head for the A where 'Midori' and 'Choose The Sword' err on a deeper, eerie touch while those on a hunt for pure breakbeat adrenaline should flip for the wild industrial drums of 'Ninja Hunter' and the heavyweight finale 'Noon Saibot'.

Review: Silent Force Recordings is back with the third instalment in the SFR Titans series. This one features Solaris in top form and delivering a brace of nicely immersive sounds, starting with 'Nemesis' which channels the classic atmospheric Amen sound and is rather reminiscent of mid-90s Source Direct. It's widescreen jungle at its finest. On the flip, 'Poseidon' takes a darker turn with a more rolling rhythm and hard-edged, steel-plated drums that hark back to early 2000s D-Bridge. These are two different but early devastating cuts, and the fact they come on nice orange vinyl makes it a no brainer.

Review: Whereas most drum & bass, electro and other adjunct styles tend to adopt an implicit pro-futurist message, Soul Intent bucks the trend with 'Fight The Future' and three further tracks, portending a potential paleo-traditionalist revolution in drum & bass. Sadly, it doesn't sound like the future has been very well fought against: this is tearout neuro techstep of the most rabid kind, and it really does sound like the battle has been won and that the AI decepticons have taken over, with robo-biotic growl design and mechanical-maniacal metal clanking away on the title track and 'Right There' most prominently. Still, it's a wicked EP, even if you don't take its titular antifuturist battle cry at its word. 'Feeling Uneasy' is especially wild, moving into an outer-d&b territory that sounds like it's been occupied by an alien drummer militia.

A real homage to these cuts takes us back to that golden era crossover point between hardcore and jungle. Big pads. Bigger rushes. 'Lavish' lives up to its name in feels, drums and arrangement.

Review: What is "human nature"? Tokyo jazz trio Soundtype attempt to answer this near-impossible question on their expansive new album, serving an intentional crossing between genres, styles, and ultimately, interpersonal, intra-specific, human differences. Aiming for a sound that "transcends all boundaries", the implication is that human nature is itself an ultimately permeable concept. That, however, doesn't prevent the band defaulting to certain styles, which range from downbeat nu-jazz to clarinetting jungle to hip-hop via gospel. Remarkably clear, with crystalline production, the record shifts through talent-flaunting jazz and hip pop tidbits, culminating on a wonky, gaslamp-lit title track upon which singer Kotetsu and fellow jazzist Yota Miyazato pair up for a culminate, fulminatory Michael Jackson cover.

This time we head to the UK east coast to hear the sounds of three Moving Shadow affiliates - JMJ & Richie and engineer JT. As Spirits From An Urban Jungle they only released two records together, which was criminal considering how crisp and forward-thinking both EPs were... Especially now in their remastered form. 'Prologue To Freedom' blasts with hopeful chords and those classic detuned synth sounds while 'White Lightning' focuses much more on the breakbeat science.

It's dreamy and heartfelt stuff then closer 'Alpen' rounds out with a darting jungle rhythm awash with brain blowing drums.

Perfect for early autumn sun, this standout release includes two unique tracks. 'Take A Chance' features LA's rising r&b artist Upper Reality and is a bright, upbeat track blending Motown vibes with dub influences that make it an ideal party anthem. On the flipside, 'Hey Baby' combines chopped soul samples with warm Rhodes chords and hazy synth arpeggios. This release marks a big milestone for Rosebay Music and is a great entry into its catalogue.

Review: Rosebay Music is a new label from Submoprhics that opens its account with a new offering from the boss himself. He is someone with a unique style that is built on 174 bpm British foundations but adds elements from the foundational and more contemporary US styles of his homeland, from Detroit house to Chicago footwork. This debut 12' shows that to be the case again with 'Blastoff' bringing a lively juke-inspired rhythm with silky synths and nice lush chords. 'Cinerama' is another smooth roller, this time with spine-tingling female vocals.

Review: Submorphics' Rosebay imprint has been an absolute gold mine for soulful and warm, funky and cosmic D&B and this link-up with the man of the moment Zar is certainly no exception. 'Another Level Of Love' is a surging slab of soul that could be told at any tempo. Gentle keys, balmy (but bold) pads and a scorchio vocal from Aya Dia, this hits the spot on a whole new level (ahem) For a deeper instrumental vibe look no further than 'Western Times'. A lilting, far-away texture sets the vibe while little swirls and jazzy twangs add all the colouring your soul requires. Beautiful.

Review: Submorphics' new imprint Rosebay Music returns with its second release; this time the producer is joined by North Quarter boss and soulful drum & bass aficionado Lenzman. Fusing the former's soulful approach and the latter's high-octane neurofunk, 'Echoes Of November' harks back agog to six months ago, with snappy but swung drum lines providing the base for fast future arpeggiators, wistful soul vox chopups and bubbling synths, which almost recall the same bright guitar. As warmly merigold in tone as the front cover suggests, B-sider 'The Messenger' is just as neo-noir-at-noon, in part thanks to its deeply uplifting vocal line.

Architecture Dub 004 (limited hand-stamped 10")
Cat: DUBARC 004. Rel: 04 Jul 24
Review: Suburban Architecture share the fourth in their 'Architecture Dubs' series of limited edition 10" vinyl releases, which hears some of the most revered names in mid-90s golden-era drum & bass deliver remixes of newer Suburban Architecture material, in homage to that most innovative of periods. It's an impressive feat, not least since most of the time, it's the newcomers remixing the works of the veterans, and not the other way round; and that's what makes this record such a great flex. 'The Drifter', from SA's 'Turning Point' EP, first hears a dedicated, flauting remix from Ray Keith on the A, while Moving Shadow favourite DJ Harmony brings a thoroughly filterpassed amen-packed version to the B1.

Review: Fresh his Keysound D&B opus Blue, Sully returns to Astrophonica with four pristine slabs of breakbeat science. "Flock" places the full strength melodic elements over the faraway amen echoes in a way that's not dissimilar to early Good Looking. "Helios" is a much colder flashback to the darker corners of jungle's formative dance; all breathy minor key chords and vapour trails of paranoia countered neatly by a precision dub vocal sample. "Crystal Cuts" recalibrates the focus to the drums by way of broad jazz chord strokes while "Hours/Miles & Still" concludes affairs on an emotional electronica tip where the breakbeats thanks to a beautifully arresting intro. Powerful.

Review: Originally dispatched to the universe digitally via Candy Mountain, Sun People's powerful 'Emotional Distortions' now enjoys a vinyl boost-up and is sounding all the better for it. Landing just in time for the summer, each cut startles and satisfies in equal measure. 'Seul' lights an electroid fire, hitting us in our most introspective feels before 'Runaway' takes things up a notch and adds much more techno urgency to the scenario. Flip for two more slightly slower tempo shock-outs... 'Rhythm Guitar' brings a little funk before 'Exhausting Care' closes with more angular electro sharpness. Time to get emotional.

Review: The young drum & bass label Monkey Business closes out a fine 2024 with one more killer 12". It's another one that draws on various artists for four tracks that are all four-way collabs. First up is 'Monkey Face' which is a twitchy, electrifying cut with whirring synth sounds, crisp drums and raw snares. 'Good Morning' has a mad lead synth and some double-speed piano chords for happy rave vibes and 'White Town Murderer' twists a pp classic into a raucous fusion of wild drum & bass madness. 'Primate X' shuts down with eye-waveringly caustic sound designs.

Ingaro (reissue) (limited yellow vinyl 4xLP box set)
Cat: SECOPSLP 002LTD. Rel: 11 Jul 24
Review: Back to 2022! Seba reissues his third album Ingaro on this beautifully presented and precision-pressed yellow vinyl box set. With four 12"s, all 10 cuts get generous wax space and sound amazing as a result. Especially highlights such as the Spirit-like super charge of 'Sequence 5', the cosmic jungle thrust of 'Outer Worlds', the powerful and provocative 'Thoughts Run Free' with Rupture legend and killer MC Blackeye. And that's just for starters; the Bjorn Berglund-collaborated and Samuel Lancine-fronted downtempo cut 'Diamonds' is a sense-arresting moment and the dreamy finale 'Progression'. Seba, we salute you.
