Review: Antiballistic has pretty much made the Elastica catalogue as of late, and this time the bass-head is joined by the Ackeejuice Rockers for a session entitled "Booka". The original cut fades sleazy dancehall vocals in and out of a rumbling bass groove loaded with a heavy dose of low frequencies for the club; remixes come from: Sonny Denja who strips everything down to form a mechanical drum rhythm, Aquadrop and their hard-house reinterpretation, and Smoothies' rave-stabbing, slo-mo 4/4 version.
Review: With a title like "Evil Drums", you'd expect this latest missive from the Elastica label to be formidably tough, and possibly boast the sort of bassline that leads to an inadvertent loosening of the bowels. It's certainly a dancefloor smasher, coming on like a UK take on the anything-goes party antics of Buraka Som Sistema. Lapa Nuna Crew deliver the first remix, layering rave synths and vocal hits over a sweaty, UK Funky-influenced groove. Tuzzy drops a dubstep-inspired rework, while Funsui closes to proceedings with a curious blend of UK funky rhythms and warm Hammond licks.
