(2007)
It's like post-punk and dub-tech working in collusion to stop a zippy speed garage tune escaping by smothering it in darkness.
Sometimes I wonder why would we choose to listen to this over an actual speed garage tune from say 1998.
Is gloomifying a genre anything to be proud of? Is this just kinda pin pricking the hardcore/rave elation balloon and giving back in to 80s miserableism?
Is this the only way for miserable rockist/indie/goth types to enjoy 2 step garage? ie. with all the fun taken out, dysphoric speed garridge if you will.
On the other side of the coin it's in the great British tradition of post-punk dub, sound system culture, Wild Bunch/Massive Attack/Tricky milieu and the darkside of the hardcore continuum innit?
Cracking tune right. One of his best.
