Biscuit Factory At Juno Download

Review: Erstwhile D&B'ers Genetix have nailed the dubstep sound recently. Applying their strong-arm sonic knowhow from their previous trade, it's given their cuts a distinctive edge. "Going In" is the bolshier one of the trio, with its swaggering half steps, well-placed MC vocal snippet and bear-like bass."Mindrise" is a much deeper, rolling percussive cut spiked with chilling pads and paranoid tick-tock shakers shuffling deep in the darkest corners, while "24/7 Re-flex" goes in hard with its savage subs. All three are bolstered with the bulletproof beef their D&B was known for too.

Review: For their fifth release the Biscuit Factory crew hand over the reins to dynamic duo Kutz & Walsh. Opener "Wanted" is an all-out dubstep monster with relentless morphing bass frequencies and slamming drums. "G742" sees them flip the script with bouncy 4/4 beats and distorted synths taking us into twisted up futuristic UK funky territory. Finally, EP closer "The Warning" lays on some serious dubwise pressure with heavyweight sledgehammer drums.

Review: Ridiculously heavy vibes going on here as emerging Biscuit Factory barons Laxx and Farkas collide for the first time. The title track is hardly dubstep at all, instead it combines a more pounding four-four flavour of old tribal house and techno but with whispers of half step on the ones and threes. If you're looking for a set switcher, this is a fine candidate. "High Roller", meanwhile, is dubstep with a serious swagger. A joint venture with Soap Dodgers, its wobblesome halfstep grunts the message across while a really cute, retro top melody caters for the more tingly side of the dance. Very interesting release.
