Review:
A key lynchpin in Bristol's ever-burgeoning dubstep scene, ex-D&B producer Komonazmuk gets down to business with Dance Too, the latest release on Appleblim's Apple Pips print. A strong, weighty bassline predominates with chiming stabs and plenty of slow-burning, ganja hazed appeal. It's nicely crafted, with a glowering hum and subtle, driving current beneath it. There's no sense of dubstep's big, bad "bro-step" doppelganger in here, friends. In fact, it lends itself incredibly well - almost too well - to the deep house re-fix which Lee Jones gives it on the flip; it's stripped back grooves all the way here, with a nice use of spaciousness and vocal snatches amongst the woodpecker beats, which almost surpass the original in fact. Perfect chill out material.
