1 > SCANONE > Mr Tant (original)
J. Greenaway's dub, old skool hardcore and electro roots allow him to fuse electro / dubstep in his productions like it's the most natural thing ever, a path similarly pursued by Neil Landstrumm. ScanOne's work as a visual artist (with the Light Surgeons, U.V.A.) allows him to go deeper, however, taking things sonically inward to reach right inside the brain of the machine, a cavernous dark space where crisp minimal textures take on profound presence, and electronic chatter flickers in and out of focus. It's an inner sonic landscape similarly explored by electro exponents Bitstream and Simulant. A huge sub bassline pulses like the heart of the machine itself.
2 > CURSOR MINER > Everybody want Power
Electronic maverick Cursor Miner has produced tracks in a variety of styles, but somehow manages to infused every one with his characteristic Cursor "spazz funk" sound.
Road-tested at the infamous Interakt raves and the NFA Beach party, "Everybody want Power" clocks in at 111 bpm, a chunky bashment track that calls to mind the insanely catchy, vicious hip-jacking riddims of The Bug, but encased in Cursor's sleek electro styling, bubbling Reaktor basslines and nimble hyper-edits. Played on Ill FM as well as Mary Anne Hobb's Experimental show, and championed by techno uberlord Surgeon.
3 > BLACKMASS PLASTICS > Torture Sequence
Thorn Industries' boss lets rip once again with a slice of angry filth-step. "Torture Sequence" rises like a cyborg patched from mismatching parts out of a south london scrapheap. Lumbering along a half-step mechanoid rhythm punctuated by sounds of broken machinery, parts fizz and grind into place as clanks become snares; industrial sonics that call to mind the dystopian vision of Scorn or Hymen Records. A unique fusion of hard electro and dubstep rhythms with sounds that growl and fizz in the redline.
First tested in the cavernous main room at the infamous Yardcore sessions, it's immense, dystopian presence filled the room completely with a thick, crushing atmosphere. half-dubstep, half-industrial electro, for fans of Vex'd, Distance, Komonazmuk & White Boi, Scorn, Crooked One, Reso, Innasekt, Excision, Lone Wolf and Sully Shanks.
4 > the Wee DJs > Roov
Scotland's wee djs have been responsible for some of the most skewed, leftfield dancefloor electronics that's shaken a dark basement club system. With a slew of releases on labels like ScSi-Av, Roulette Rekordz, Gassoline and Andrea Parker's Touchin Bass imprint, his sound has found support from underground electro clubs like Interakt, Substance all the way to Mary Anne Hobbs' Radio 1 show. Roov is an exceptional piece of work, even by his own standards: A colossal beast of a track built using sounds crafted from his own synth patches, deformed, mutilated and programmed to charge at you like an enraged mammoth, or an unstoppable dark storm of warped electronics. Earth shaking peak-time bizznizz.
5 > EKAROS > Whale
Hungarian producer Ekaros first came to our attention with The Devil, a dubstep monster of kraken-like proportions. His electro-tinged style brought us "Atoms", a powerful dubstep smasher on Combat11. "Whale" is it's more introspective twin, created around the same time, but taking things much deeper with delayed snares, eerie metallic resonances echoing miles high within a lightless cavernous space. The kind of submerged, twilight sonic landscape that have drawn comparisons to Drexciya and Bitstream; which in our minds can't be a bad thing at all.
