Review:
After his outings last year on 2nd Drop, DjRum's Mountains 12"s get reworked by a couple of upstarts continuing the label's predilection for new avenues bass music can travel down. Pedestrian steps up with his aptly entitled "Pirate Radio Remix" of "Mountains Pt 1", bringing some highly atmospheric garage bassline action to the fold, peppered with crafty drum rolls and MC chants. Tessela meanwhile twists "Turiya" into an embryonic jungle roller with a sideline in wistful synth action. Both tracks hark back to (supposedly) bygone eras of the hardcore lineage, but ably update them with modern production panache.
