Kondrashov At Juno Download

Review: One part of Latvian breaks smashers Underthis, Kondrashov goes it alone on this Digital Sensation release which has already had rabid support from Kultur & Columbo, Bill Vega and Line Of Sight. Clean, sharp snares and subtle bass hits keep this one fresh while dreamy vocals bubble under the surface - embellishing the tune but thankfully not hijacking its raw punchiness. Hotly-tipped producer Sketi really turns things up into the red on his mix - a gift to breaks DJs everywhere.

Review: Following up his "Alternatives" single on the Digital Sensations label, Latvian breaks master Kondrashov is back with this epic newie, "Insane". On a nu-skool tip, the beats are tough and sleazy while the melodies are charged with plenty of cosmic bite. On the remix front, Aussie smashers Beatsmack go hell for leather on their version - working a huge guitar-like lead sound into the hectic beats and punishing bass bumps.

Review: Taking a break from his "Under This" alias, Dimitry Kondrashov drops two new fiery electro-breaks smashers on this new release. Title-tune "On My Mind" uses rockish harmonics and some tech-trance synths to really set things off nicely in a supercharged breaks vibe, while "Answer" plays on a strictly electro flex - switching between head-spinning arpeggios and crunchy, punishing bass.
