Sub Code Schallplatten & CDs

Review: .The opening jam on this new EP from Sub Code has got it all - the driving breakbeats, the proper lush chords and the heart-aching r&b vocal sample, pitched up just enough. Bow Street Runner ensures they all coalesce into a standout tune that tugs at the emotions while also demanding you move your body. No wonder it's called 'Sex Tune 3.' Lavery & Bow Street Runner's 'Punani Mania' is just as super sweet with another brillaint vocal sample, tenderness in the piano chords and drive in the jungle rhythms. After that collaboration between Lavery & Bow Street Runner comes a Lavery solo 'One Tune', which is more naughty with air raid sirens, some mad mic work and warped bass filth.

Review: UK artist Tom Lavery has been making some brilliant jungle under this alias on labels like Smooth Operator and mostly Sub Code, where he returns now. 'Some Likkle Fool' brings raga influences to tumbling bass drills and sleek breakbeats. 'Dream Of This Love' is a high-speed and raved-up workout with pitched-up vocals and maniac bass energy and 'Touch Me' is another blend of old school madness with new school production, thanks to the piano chords, euphoric pads and vocals and blistering amens. 'Batmobile' shuts down with a raw stepper.
