This one's the rump shaker! Another dose of pure funk on iDJr. Imagine a Primo beat with a Beatminerz bassline shifted to drum and bass and you'll have an accurate description of how "Axe Wound" smacks. Pretty quickly the urgency is established by a funky rave alarm and a wobble that will keep everyone moving. The synthesis of sounds here is unlike the styles we've come to expect from drum and bass and that can only be a good thing. Perhaps best is how the track continues to build but does away with the big 'drop' that restricts the structure of so much dnb out there; you'll notice in this selection it's not missed at all.
Recall shows us that he's not only capable of pushing boundaries but also great execution. "Demon Stration" is a techy banger that is noteworthy for balancing the dark reese with some funky and uplifting sound effects. This is a great track for giving the dancefloor a dose of heaviness without sacrificing the mood. Whether you're moving the dancefloor to or from a heavier sound, it's transition tracks like this that get the job done.
