Description
The two dubstep pioneers at the top of their game. The deadly concision, the rhythmic punch and dramatic timing, the spry, side-to-side detailing of a cavernous stage, the crisp-biscuit vocal sampling and Middle Eastern percussion their sound signatures are not so
much totalled as squared. Truly an album, the music is multi-levelled dark as anything at times, but engrossingly varied and emotionally shaded, always on the move.
For The Wire this month, in a full-page review a labyrinthine collaboration that rebuilds the dialectics of dubstep a beguilingly well-delivered statement in a dialect that was sidelined in favour of the cult of bass or the fluorescent synths. A powerful retort to the comparatively crude hyperactivity of the post-dubstep landscape and a well-timed lesson in sophistication.
