Review: Breakbeat with a huge side order of bass, title track "Shooked" will pummel you in all the right places with some frankly shocking amounts of buzzy bass riffs and some well-chopped female vocals. "Bulletproof" lifts some samples from the Beastie's "No Sleep 'til Brooklyn" and sets them to another vicious beat. Vandal's mix of "Shooked" brings in some cool electro hi-hats as well as some old-skool vocals, while legends of the scene Shut Up and Dance flip the tune entirely - adding rhymes and tons of hooks and reworking it into a good-times masterpiece of their own.

Review: Ever since Pete Horsham, AKA Kraymon arrived into a blossoming breaks scene in 2001, he thrown himself deep into the fabric of the scene. If he's not touring, remixing or producing you can bet that he is still up to something music related. "Trouble In My Head" sees him continue the Kraymon vibe that has seen him consolidate a position as one of breakbeat?s most forward thinking producers.

On 'Trouble In My Head,' Kraymon enlists the services of Colleen Quinn who delivers a lingering, haunting vocal that floats along the track. The very fact that Kraymon used the voice from Bristol based electro act, Subtastic, one of the most unique and exciting electronic acts to come out of the city of late, highlights his dedication to both innovation and quality. His trademark squelchy bass lays the way for a punchy drumbeat and a sharp, crisp production. His intricate arrangement paves the way for the track to build until we reach that dancefloor moment.

The remix package makes this even more of a must have record with mixes from Refracture and EK. Refracture's offering is the most suited to a peak time sets, utilizing a huge bass line and body-jacking breakbeats. We get tougher breaks and a piercing baseline from the EK remix whereas Eshericks twisted and distorts the original into a raw and forceful monster.

Such is 'Trouble In My Head's' appeal that it has even aired on BBC 6 Music?s 'Introducing.' With support coming from a host of high profile DJs, this release looks set to add to Kraymon?s ever growing reputation.

Review: A producer with a huge amount of blog heat behind him, thanks to some canny bootleg mixes over the past six months, breaks star Refracture doesn't disappoint on latest single, "Blue". With Trudi Mosiamo's vocals going up against waves of bass and some astral keys, Refracture makes "Blue" both memorable and a true floor-shaker, while extra tune "Punk" is a straight breaks burner with some killer filter builds and plenty of icy leads.

Review: Upcoming UK breaks star Refracture is back with a new clutch of bangers on Dusted Breaks, including the machine gun bass-fest of "Hate On This", which smoothly switches between sweet drop-outs and nasty, chunky verses. "Jehova" also melts styles together successfully - using a brief slice of Biggie over a progged-out bed of twinkling synths that get quickly chewed up into the stuttering rhythm drop. With the electro-breaks hybrid "Run" also included, this is further proof that Refracture is a growing force on the breaks scene.
