Review: Time to recognise! Carlton Doom - a booming force of industrial-sized electro - surfaces on Lobster Theremin fresh from his last outing on Hypercolour. Turning in a hugely inspired EP of toxic muscle for Lobster Theremin, this six-track Binmen, Machines, Insects & More EP sees the artist go from quashed-futuristic fidget in "Insects In The Jelly" to epic bassline hoovers in "Binmen Of The Apocalypse". "Scatterbrain" looks to more distorted IDM and experimental sounds while "E Machine" pitches a slo-mo electro shuffle against a flurry of breakbeats, smoothed out saw waves and a familiar computer vox. "I Am The Creator" is the sludge techno track of the record with its Den Haag-like rave sensibilities that's twisted into ambient-laced jungle via an Interplanetary Criminal Rebirth remix.
Review: It's all kicking off with this latest Hypercolour outing, as we see Carlton Doom land in top quality form with a truly fiery display, unloading three dizzying originals, exploring a wide spectrum of dancefloor ideas. We begin with the earth-shattering drumlines and sub sweeps of 'I'll Be Fine', a mind-boggling twist up through explosive subs and subtle background glitches. Next, 'Cesspool' delivers an either deeper exploration of modern breaksy themes with just as much potency, before the icy synthesiser lines and warm bass bulges of 'I Miss You' gives the EP a truly emotive round off to close.
Review: The Breaks 'N' Pieces team have a real knack for delivering refreshing breaks-driven originals, with this blistering new masterclass from Carlton Doom being another real heavy hitter. We open up with the bubbling, harp-like melodies of 'Blue Galaxy', which unleashes a rich and weighty soundscape, before the blippy synthetic maneuvers of 'Mistriot' then rush into play with a really floaty feel. We then move forward as 'Jektify' arrives with a truly otherworldly backdrop of digital harmonics and crunchy drum textures, delivering a potent bassline to match, before Emby layers an emotive delivery of spoken-word across the enchanting layers of 'Life On Marble'. Beautiful work.
