Toriena – Black Dance Hole - Japanese LSDJ dance freak Toriena’s post-Blip full-length. Toriena is a top-notch LSDJ programmer and offers glitchy dance galore.
Dr. Treble – Why Am I Even Still Doing This - No question mark in the title here…. I guess it’s because the reason Dr Treble is still doing this is the blasty treble on opening track ‘Treble On The Streets’ which dips into eyeball shaking bass on DryOut is pretty hot stuff. There’s some wonderful upbeat drum and classic dub bass on ‘OP’ and the abrasive bass on this release is worth the time alone. I don’t know why he’s called Dr. Treble though. Maybe Dr. Tuff Bass was taken.
Breakbeat Heartbeat’s – 22:06 - New label, The Waveform Generators describe it: “The atmospheres and styles change constantly in ’22:06’, BBHB’s most varied work to date, one minute the four-to-the-floor euphoric splendour of ‘Send Me To Sleep’, the next the slow and soft touch of ‘The Skies I’, and then later the chipbreak mayhem of ‘Radio’. Impressively though, this release sounds cohesively strong, linking all the tracks with not style but instead the very distinct melodic stylings present within this music”
