Review: The cleanest, clearest way to destroy the dance, plain and simple. Rocking in harder and darker than anything else on the market right now, Horizons have played a blinder picking up Dabs' latest - has he ever steered us wrong? "Stentah" takes MC Kwality's hypnotic vocals and weaves them on, around and under tribal drums so crispy they'll bring the house down anywhere. Play this out loud and often - the world needs it. On the other side, "Half Truth" also features the production talents of HLZ and Need For Mirrors, rolling rapid and smooth, glistening and fluid like liquid mercury. A seriously high quality release, get both in your repertoire, they'll be requested all summer.
Review: Horizons take to the deep, atmospheric end of D&B for Dabs' latest release, an emotive collaboration with MC Kwality and European king of the filthy bassline Mortem. Starting off with intriguing middle eastern sounds, booming tribal beats and scene-setting flows from Kwality, it's a dark, dangerous stepper fit for the night. Following up is a track filled with soul and sophistication, as silky vocals create the perfect juxtaposition with techy beats and rolling bass. Two very different tracks but each perfectly showcasing each producer's talents. Dabs and Mortem should already be a buy-on-sight, if not, get to know.
Review: Horizons continue their run of quality releases with a couple of cuts from Dabs, who teams up with Amoss for title track "Still There" and June Miller for "Ditch". Returning to the former, this one's all about the deep, penetrating bassline with a gnarly edge, razor sharp breaks and pounding tech-ed up power. Vocodered lyrics add to the ominous atmosphere. Then "Ditch" comes in with its neuro overtones, cinematic SFX and gritty b-line pressure. Watch out for the drop - nasty! A superb release for those who like their D&B big, bad and heavy.
