Review: Two Legends of the game combine on this latest offering from Fabric Worldwide, as we see the classic link up of Kode9 & Burial once again in action, delivering a simply sumptuous duo of forward thinking originals. First up, Kode9 steps forward with a classic blend of emotional energy, footwork-sounding drum pumps and lucid melodies, wrapped up in jungle-style drum breaks for a truly unique sonic experience. On the flip to this, the immortal Burial steps up for his appearance on 'Unknown Summer'. Now this is a truly special experience, linking up floating chord chimes and tap dancing percussion for a divine drip through atmospheric soundscaping. Simply, awesome!

Review: There aren't many labels that can genuinely hold a candle to the electronic mastery that Hyperdub have been able to deliver over the last decade alone, seeing their catalogue now bulging at the seams with the most intuitive dance music innovation. This latest collection takes the title '10.4' and supplies us with a deep dive into the full spectrum of where Hyperdub are at, with legendary figures such as Ikonika, Cooly G, Scratch DVA, Martyn, Funkystepz and many more all making their return for a fabulous compilation display. From the high energy rave-inspired synth slinks of Ill Blu's 'Bellion' to the unorthodox percussive bubbles of 'Noyfb' from Laurel Halo & iconic glitchy melodies of Burial's 'Lambeth', this is a truly fabulous exploration into just how abstract electronic dance music can get. Another exceptional collection from a truly outstanding imprint!

Review: Keeping with themes of continuum is Burial's return to Keysound backed by a Blackdown VIP dub and remix of the track "Arklight" by Joseph Whittle's Heatmap project. For Burial, it shows a '90s-inspired and hopeful sound from an artist revelling in the skylit clouds this time opposed to the dusty streetscapes of his known soundworld. "Space Cadet" sounds exactly that, with spirals of Asiatic chimes and new age synths - peppered by crackles and white noise - matched by the rave and post-hardcore melodies of "Dark Gethsemane". Keeping the EP firmly rooted on terra firma though is the hype dub cut "This Journey" by Blackdown - preaching more of a positive message - next to the boxy claps and spiralling arpeggios of that Heatmap remix. An EP for the times: Shock Power Of Love.

Review: Keeping the UK vibes strong this December period is Burial's "Chemz", an epic 12-minute number taking in huge inspirations from R&B and two-step while remaining strong in a post-rave and dubstep aesthetic. With honeysuckle lyrics setting the tone of a love song, detuning and warping techniques play a key part in the track's originality while skimming the surface of Burial's muffled noise floors, foggy atmospheres and deep crackle and pop. Both euphoric, hopeful and melancholic it sees Burial deliver another futuristic number of newskool R&B that meets rave, jungle and dub.

Review: Enigmatic supergroup Burial, Four Tet and Thom Yorke reunite with a new age splice of their sound first heard in the Ego / Mirror collaboration of 2011. Revealed as a limited 300 copy vinyl release only available from a set of record store clerks somewhere in Soho, London, Her Revolution/His Rope (as if right on time) dramatises the modern day gender role in bringing 2020 and its forlorn soundtrack to an end. Yorke's voice wavers in the distance as ever while crumpled noise floors of Burial seemingly give cushion to the soft percussion and shimmering melody lines of a Four Tet's making. Capture the moment.

Review: As we approach the end of the decade, an era, we can look back on what we now understand to have truey shaped musical evolutions. That was done without saying at the end of the 2000s thanks to Burial and the tectonic influence his debut album and Untrue LP had on popular culture. In this 2011-19 time period it's been Keysound, Nonplus and Text that have since shared the music of Burial outside of his known home, with Hyperdub collecting this selection of the artist's music as part of the label's 15th anniversary run of releases. Hazily so, this compilation shines a light on the trail blazed by Burial with productions like "Street Halo", "Come Down To Us" and "NightMarket", to Burials two most recent cuts "Claustro" and "State Forest".

Review: With 19 Hyperdub artists on show here, this intrigue of a collaboration to help Hyperdub commemorate its 15th year of operation sees the label connect with late night television network Adult Swim. The likes of Burial, Ikonika, Fatima Al Qadiri and Kode9 all sign in with tracks specifically made for the compilation, with stand out numbers coming from Skratch DVA via the toxic and percussive "Baka" alongside the white noise crackles and subtle dub and industrial techno grooves of Nazar's "Unruly". Other oddball highlights include Mana's "Climbing The Walls" and the slow march of Doona Kanda's "Perfume". Late night TV has never sounded so good.

Review: All we can say for this one is wow. There are few producers within the UK that are able to drum up as much hype and anticipation regarding their forthcoming releases as Burial, a true gem. As a team up with the legendary Hyperdub, this was always going to be special, as we take a peek at the first track 'Claustro' to kick us off. This one sounds like a perfect cross between nostalgia and progress, with jittery UKG drum switch ups and spooky layered vocals running wild. Next we land on the stunning soundscapes of 'State Forest', an incredible array of spacey synthesizers and sub tones, providing an excellent accompaniment to the title track.

Review: For all his innovation, Burial has historically shied away from delivering full-throttle, mind-altering club bangers. Certainly, we can't remember him serving up anything as rhythmically intense as the two dystopian techno slammers showcased on this EP. Both feature many of his usual sonic trademarks - oodles of vinyl crackle, end-of-days aural textures and creepy ambient electronics - but are underpinned by bombastic 4/4 beats rather than sparse, post-dubstep rhythms. "Pre-Dawn", a dense and incredibly intense affair, is the more energetic and instant of the two, though weirder and looser "Indoors", which contains some pitched-up rave-era vocal samples and woozy riffs amongst its highlights, is also very impressive.

Review: Following up great releases by Mana, Cooly G and Lee Gamble recently, Kode9's esteemed Hyperdub imprint returns with UK dubstep hero Burial. He offers up yet more of his signature style: brooding and semi-dystopian street sounds for journeys home on the night bus. His new offering "Rodent" features a familiar R&B vocal loop that has been pitch shifted to an eerie extent and backed by a thick garage bassline and gritty/saturated low bitrate rhythm. The label boss himself steps up to deliver a jagged and off-kilter footwork rendition. It's full of spitfire drum patterns, rapid fire bass pulsations and the vocals are accelerated to a stupefying stutter: this one's totally off the chain!

Review: Dubstep legend Burial is back with more street level sound excursions through the dark underbelly of London after midnight. Awe inspiring sound design meets urban music deconstructions again on these two riveting cuts. Feel the tension, fear and suspense on the first sonic journey that is "Subtemple", a beatless journey that will have you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. Second offering "Beachfires" sounds more like the Burial we know; this one is absolutely brooding and atmospheric: the kind of dark ambient paranoia with GCHQ surveillance in mind: circa 2026.

Review: Burial's first multiple-track release since "Rival Dealer" three years ago: "Young Death" takes the lead with weave of deep, scratchy and evocative human textures while soulful vocal shards yearn and flutter over soft faraway beats. "Nightmarket" takes an even more introspective meander through the shadowy unknown with fractured arpeggios, distant whispers and thick graininess that envelops almost overwhelmingly. As forward, unusual and unique as ever, Burial remains in a league of his own. Limited.

Review: Given that his sound has now been referenced by countless imitators, it's testament to Burial's enduring appeal that the announcement of a new EP on a Sunday in February was enough to shake the online music press out of their collective stupor. As an EP it more than stands up to his previous work, and it may even be better than last year's Street Halo EP - where the brilliance of the title track left the EP quite top-heavy, there's no such complaints on Kindred. If UK garage was the touchpoint for his earlier releases, this EP sees Burial further developing a sound that has few obvious points of comparison, whether it's the savage, gnarled bassline of the title track, or the shambling house of "Loner", characterized by its hollowed out arpeggio and ambient crackle. But it's "Ashtray Wasp" that provides the most breathtaking moment, seeing the producer using the distinct musical language he's created and bringing confident melodic elements into play. Of course such descriptions seem trivial when trying to describe this EP - even for Burial it's far beyond what his peers and imitators could ever imagine making.

Review: Burial is back. Yes, after four years away, he's not only ambushed us with THAT collab with Four Tet and Thom Yorke, but now he springs a three track EP on Kode9's Hyperdub imprint upon us too! The eponymous "Street Halo" is a delectable, crackling 4/4 roller with buckets of emotion and texture. In other words, it's the Burial of "Archangel" fame, which we all know and love. "NYC" is the urban retort, bristling with echoes of thunder, murmurs of traffic in the distance, jingling keys, it symbolizes the minutiae of everyday existence and is underpinned by slouching beats with a small, eerie and discernibly mournful voice wailing on top. Final track, "Stolen Dog" pairs smudgy piano keys with terse, ticking beats, all shrouded in an ethereal shimmer, much like Burial himself.

Review: The ten year celebrations from Hyperdub continue apace here with the second of four planned label compilations arriving with the stated intention of casting "some sunshine" over the label's sometimes "dread filled reputation". Arriving on just one disc this time round as opposed to two, the fourteen tracks nevertheless features productions from DVA, Morgan Zarate, Cooly G, Jessy and Burial among other Hyperdub regulars, who are joined by the vocal talents of Dam-Funk, Fatima and others. Perhaps most exciting is the inclusion of an unreleased track from the defunct partnership of Dean Blunt & Inga Copeland; fans of the latter will also be intrigued by Kode9?s "Lies Lies", which features the talents of Inga in her new solo guise, copeland.
