An aggressive, spooky intro starts off this trip into experiemental drum n bass. While the beat was a little cliche', the crusher takes it and intergrates it with his other bits and makes it entirely unique. If you're a fan of melody, this may be a difficult song for you because of the lack of a lead, but the rythem is definately strong enough to get most heads bobbing. Great use of the vocal samples. Good work.

Some rather harsh hi-hats in this track, raspy to the core. Not quick brushed up on my mid-90's hip-hop lingo like I should be, but calling it 'phat' in the description may be a little misleading. It moves nicely, but never really established a groove. Lots of ok, decent sounds here but a melody never really emerges to tie them all together. There is a rather clunky breakdown around the three minute mark that doesn't do anything for the song - any momentum that is built up stalls at that point, and there isn't a clean exit from this audio wound. Some nice ideas, but the execution left something to be desired.

Establishes a nice dance groove right from the very beginning - not really out to bust your booty, but more a gentle rocking of the posterior area. Around the 1:00 minute mark, breaks things down into a gentle early 80's depeche mode synth chord progression, but then brings back the beat before we can break out the mascarea. Good work.

Some very unusual, unique, lo-fi sounds going on here. A great beat is paired with the glitchiness to make a good groove worth bobbing a head to. Nice intro of a stereo pad at 1:34, it really helps move the track in a new direction. Somewhat of a clunky, awkward ending. Very disappointing considering how well that track had been going. Overall, a good effort.

Lo-fi excellence opening! With all the static and gritty goodness of the real world, coming large and in charge through your speaker! The beats breakdance through a synth field bordering on exotic. Polite guy too, with good descriptions of this tracks. A fine addition to sonically tweaked electronicscene family.
