Crystal Clear (feat Kid Katharsis - original mix) - (4:34) 57 BPM
Review: Hanging, banging, mad and outstanding... Chimpo continues flex his lyrical and musical dexterity with his awesome new album Don't Worry About It. Featuring a whole raft of mates and peers such as Skittles, Salo, Slay, Darkside Mo, IBeKay, Ellen Beth Abdi and Kid Katharsis, the album charges into the heart of vocal-led jungle D&B with strong shades of soul, R&B and hip-hop as Chimpo guides us through many double standards, nuances and ironies of modern life. One for the hippies, nerds, hustlers and indeed thugs, each track is a veritable highlight and resonates to a different corner of the dance from the lurking skankers on 'Darkside' to heart-eyed romantics on 'Crystal Clear'. Exceptional songwriting and D&B sonics, no one does it like Chimpo.

Screwball Scramble / Double Dutch
Screwball Scramble - (3:48) 174 BPM Hot
Double Dutch - (5:15) 172 BPM
Review: Tickle every single ape that you see. From chimpan-A to chimpanzee. Here's the sound to do it to, you won't be disappointed, Chimpo's back on Gutterfunk and he's even more disjointed. 'Screwball Scramble' is a unique and springy piece of work that's part late 90s jump-up, part 23rd century funk, all jungle. 'Double Dutch', meanwhile, will have you doing the Dolittle and chatting the language of every mammal on the planet to its bouncy shimmering drum lead and far-out futurist textures. Outstanding as always, Chimpo is in a league of his own.

Review: Man like Chimpo doing the gosh darned thing on Critical: life doesn't get much better than this. Four vibes, four completely different animals, all of them hooting and wailing like our kid Chimpz though... 'Let Me Rise' (with Salo) shows us his most tender and soulful side, 'Treetop Golf' tickles your bongos and gets a hole in one as a result. 'The Crab' scuttles along with hard shelled funk while 'Compass' guides us to all the right corners of the dancefloor with a very subtle nod to Photekian theory. Stunning.

Review: As ever with the Astrophonica overlords, they have delivered us a precious gift of sonic wonder, unveiling Slow Astro volume 3 & 4 from Fracture and a variety of other artists. The beauty of this collection is that, not for one second, do we know what's about to happen next, with different twists and turns around every corner, from the Slow Mix of Philip D & Om Unit's 'Funk 160' masterclass, or Fracture's overhaul of 'Wavefile_Dayjob', unleashing the most acidic of instrumentation into the world. There are a number of highlights, with Fractures remix ability being on full display from start to finish, but his smartly distorted overall of 'Conditional' from Sam Binga and the percussive crunch of his 'No Matter How Far' rethink, originally from BSN Posse are a real pair of standouts.

Chimpo & Inqus - "Mix Up" - (3:44) 57 BPM Hot
Review: From the brilliant cover art through to very last snare, Chimpo has gone beyond the call of duty once again with this understated collection floor shakers on V. 'Hydraulics' is a rubber ball bass jam that relentlessly bashes and slaps, 'Show Ya' with Sl8r is all about that dreamy jazz affair while 'Hill An Gully' is all types of naughty with its wild drums and bashy switches. 'Mix Up' closes the EP on a nostalgic one. No trouble here.

LUV NRG - (4:25) 58 BPM Hot
Buzz Army - (4:02) 58 BPM
Broad - (4:48) 58 BPM
Review: Dial up, dial in, let us begin... The unstoppable Manchester primate Chimpo flexes his raviest muscles right here on 'On The Dial'. Bright, breezy, wrapped up in lush euphoric pads, each of these cuts sits somewhere between 92 - 2022 and between hardcore and D&B. The result is a collection that will appeal across the spectrum; 'Rig Doctor' is mischievous breaks action, 'Luv NRG' is a cosmic stepper for the ages, 'Buzz Army' prangs out with its wonky synths and darker textures in the bassline while 'Broad' closes on a creeper vibe - all spooky and shoulder hunching. What an EP; big smiles for the dials.

Review: Tek your vitamins on the daily. Tek no prisoners. Tek a book to bed and soak up some knowledge before you sleep. Tek a walk every day. Tek care of yourself. Tek everything with a pinch of salt. Tek no notice of the haters. Tek a good long look at yourself in the mirror, head on up to Manny and go pay homage to the gang like Bloc2Bloc and Donnie like Chimpo because this one is yet another shella. Tek that and party. Tek it easy.

Review: Half man, half machine, all chimpanzee, Chimpo continues to tickle us silly with his prolific dispatches as his second album 'Outside' lands just over a year after his debut 'Hia'. Tapping into his loves for west coast hip-hop, foundation jungle and his Manchester mates, across eight tracks we're sweeted into submission by smooth chords, sharp bars and more vibes than are medically recommended. Featuring the likes of Sl8r, Slay, Salo, Nina Archives, Rolla, Chunky and Abnormal Sleepz, the whole collection rolls with such a slick consistency and natural energy there's a mixtape magic to this that will soundtrack your summers in your journeys as well as your DJ sets. Highlights include Rolla's bars on 'Find A Way' the crooning from Trigga and Chimpo on 'On The One' and those fiery opening feels of 'Whalleywood'. See you 'Outside' mate.

Review: Two of drum & bass' most creative producers are teaming up on Critical, a label which never shies away from innovation, to bring you an EP inflected with multi-genre tonalities. The pair have made their name in everything from grime to garage to halftime to drum & bass, and its this legacy that's on full display across all four tracks on Ultra Luxe. The title track is peppered with synth wave textures and grungy aesthetics and it lopes along in punchy two-step rhythms, with escalating melodies that swell into serious atmospheric suspense. 'Rude AF' is the rattling jungle roller, a sub-heavy exercise in rudeboy sonics, whilst 'Murda Dem' brings the harsh tones of Slay to bear on another clubland monster. Oh yes.

Review: Jungle Cakes always tend to put out music that rests on the foundations of UK underground, the cross-over influences of soul, reggae, jungle and D&B. it's always a fresh sound and it always brings up connotations of Boomtown, free parties and sunny afternoons. This is a monster album curated by Aries and Kelvin 373, who have taken tracks both old and new to form a banging compilation. Bou nails it on 'Music Takes Me Higher', a rustic revisit to classic jungle sounds; Aries and Nicky Blackmarket roll things out in a tight way on 'Champion'; and Chimpo slams the brakes on 'DidDieDoThat'. We don't know the answer to that, but we do know this is fat. Big ups.

Review: Manchester is a truly wonderful city, with a musical heritage that swamps the majority of other cities around the UK historically. In recent years we have seen that shift much more towards electronic and rap-based music with a fantastic pool of performers emerging, but being real, Chimpo is no newcomer. The veteran producer and vocalist lands here for yet another fabulous album release under the title of 'HIA', seeing him explore a wide variety of musical styles and themes. Chimpo's versatility and consistency is what has given him his Mount Rushmore status within Manchester's musical history and that is clear throughout this project, from the grimey squarewaves of 'Up The Wall' alongside Slay, through to the funk-inspired instrumental structure of 'Nothing Good' with Rolla and UKG flips of 'Like I Luv U'. It is yet another fantastic showcase of Chimpo's numerous avenues of ability, with our highlight being the exciting vocal switch ups and minimal instrumental structure of 'Oh Your Goodness'. Amazing work!

Review: Barely Legal invites the man-like Chimpo over to Pretty Weird towers for some all-out jungle-stepping fun. A wry head-nod to Bristol cavalier DJ Die, it's all about the skipped-out breaks, time-stretched washes and dextrous arpeggios. The remix is just as important as UKG pioneer El-B goes into Ghost flipmode for a superb dark garage fix. Spoilt for choice; there's nothing weird about it.

Review: Chimpo on Exit. Is the world ready for this? Probably not. But since when did that stop guys like these? Especially with Trigga and Fox going toe-to-toe on the motorway-shredding rampage session "Ram Dance Man". Elsewhere "Bedsprings Riddim" warms up with sultry, jazzy come-to-bed tones before dropping into squeaky dancehall hanky-panky dopeness, "Suga Rush" has a touch of the old schools to its pads, breaks and pitched up vocal sample while "Stanna Stairlift" eases us into the groove with soft goosebump pads before dropping into some broad canvas stroke breaks which wouldn't have gone amiss on an old Big Bud record. Magnificent.

Hard Food - (4:41) 170 BPM
From Early (Fracture reduction mix) - (3:26) 169 BPM
Review: Fracture create some of the most experimental drum and bass out there, so bringing forward their dancehall-eclectic-inspired sounds with the help of Mancunian producer Chimpo was only going to create disturbances of the best kind within the scene. "From Early" takes the Fracture dancehall sound to the next level but it's in "Hard Food" that the rave and hardcore madness kicks in and things start getting a little wavy from there on in. To tidy up, "From Early" gets a reduction mix from Fracture, stripping back the shimmying and getting right down to the bare, bassy bones. A legendary collaboration in the making.

Review: The man behind the deepest MC voice the UK has ever known, Chimpo also runs a very fine line in beats. He's nowhere near as prolific as he should be. But when he does start the engine up, it purrs like a Bugatti. The turbo-charged footwork-meets-jungle "Restless Leg Syndrome" drives like one too. Deeper into the release we strike swaggering, waspy halfstep gold on "Haymaker", we get dangerous on the stark, spacious almost trap-like title track, we hit tribal insanity on the loopy vocal-coated "Bun It" and trippy insanity on the wonked-out, weirded-up "Dumb". Out, bad and essential.

Start Again
Start Again (VIP) - (5:09) Hot
Start Again - (5:06) 175 BPM
Review: Mainly famed for his startlingly sparse, soulful grooves, here Calibre reminds us of the badman he keeps locked up within his creative mind. The slinky, menacing "Start Again" is one of the highlights of his recent album Spill; all paranoid and cinematic, the half-tempo groove is the perfect bed for Chimpo's distinctive, demonic spittage. In a classic VIP flip-switch manoeuvre, the remix takes us back to the mid '90s with a spiralling, tunnel-like bassline, classic rattling breakbeats and some added 'whoo's for good measure. Naturally Chimpo's vocal works equally as well over this type of lick. In fact if you didn't know any better you'd think he wrote it for the VIP in the first place.

Review: Not seen since his debut album Machines was released on Critical in late 2012, St Petersburg's best drum and bass exponent Enei resurfaces in double plated fashion with the Liberation EP. Despite the absence, Aleksei Egorchenkov is on fine form for Critical here, experimenting with new tempos and new collaborators without any hint of sacrificing his skills for raw, next level drum and bass. Fellow Critical producer Emperor, Mancunian vocalist and producer Chimpo and singer songwriter Sam Wills feature across the two slabs of wax, with the tempo shifting "Headtop" featuring Chimpo a standout track.

Review: Entitled simply Grime 2.0, this mammoth release sees grime originators sit next to a new breed of artists, all compiled by Big Dada label boss Will Ashon and journalist Joe Muggs. Documenting grime's continued development over the past ten years, its track selections also demonstrate that it's still a vibrant and flourishing genre. Some 35 tracks deep, the compilation sees Ashon and Muggs securing exclusive, previously unheard material, with notable grime figureheads such as Youngstar, Wiley and MRK1 contributing alongside current stars in Royal T and Preditah as well as an international cast of emergent new talent, with Local Action artist and Grimetapes documenter Slackk featuring too. Essential!
