Review: We find your lack of faith disturbing.... Nomine fires up the dance with two insanely heavy VIPs from the man like Macabre Unit. "Darth Vader" keeps the 70-a-day breathing and ominous tones but jacks up the riff into something much choppier and wilder while "Mash Up Da Place" enjoys a subtler shake up with tripped harmonics laced into twisted bass riff. These are what VIPs were invented for.

Review: Flexing across his two more prominent aliases, Raff AKA Demon AKA Macabre Unit AKA Nurve b2b's himself hard in the kisser at the behest of professor Nomine. Three tunes a-side, his 140 dubstep-inspired Macabre Unit guise takes the lead with drama and dark humour; "Darth Vader" is a theatrical skanker, "Mash Up Da Place" is a woozy, toxic jam with a bassline that spirals into paranoia while "Man Up" gets all stiff upper-lip with its rising bass hook that flips between textures with a nervous twitch. Raff's slower, tech-inspired Nurve constructions complete the story with glacial glee... "Silentium" is a sparse, deep space twist on halftime and alien jungle, "Amazon" is a swampy triplet swinging riddim while "Best To Just Ride It" sends us packing off to space on a rocket of off-grid drums and raw man-eating bass. Immense.

Review: Nomine's Nomine Sound deals in the darker, more brooding shade of bass music that we all still really like to call 'dubstep'. The man's been an influential member of London's Tempa unit, so all the credentials are certainly in the right place. This new EP sees his share ideals with Macabre Unit, an absolute don in the game, and the two are perfectly matched. Nomine kicks off with three solo cuts, from the tribalesque grime antics of, ehm, "Grimy Tribe", to the menacing digi-gunshots of "Game Over", and "World Of G" featuring MC Duff, a vocal-ridden grime killer sung in an imperceptible strain of patois - tha BOMB! Macabre Unit first steps up with the explosive, head-banging bursts of "Sound Boy", followed by a cacophonous flurry of grime-inspired synth stabs on "Red Stripe Riddim", and tied off with the electrifying bass waves of "Neurotik".

Review: Fresh from dusting off a load of old dubs for Ease & Sekkle, the Macabre Unit surge forward with a quartet of fresh jams. Call them grime instrumentals, call them bass riddims, call them straight up gully, each of these cuts stamps with style: "OK" does that whole funeral march thing that the M.U.D collective have always done so well, "Fandango" adds a little string-styled funk and bounce while "Prototype" takes us back to the M.U.D roots on a naked minimal steppy flex. Finally "It's Alive" closes on a twisted elastic vibe as warped textures and pulled and pushed around the wonky beats. Macabre Unit: Macabre Unique.

Review: Round two: Macabre Unit launched Ease & Sekkle last September to a chorus of 'ooohs', 'ahhhs' and 'old school fams'. Lean, minimal, rough around the edges and vocal free; perfect for the instrumentalists, ideal for MC damage, these grime classics command a rewind. There's a strong Mario underground levels vibe on 2008's "Slow Jam", a seasickening weirdness to the reverse bass licks on 2003's "Take Time" and a warped Axel F feel to 2005's "Everyday Life". Looking for something really ominous and moody? Jump on 2011's "Juggernaut" and start thinking long and hard about our purpose on this planet. Timeless.

Review: This new split single from excellent future-garage label L2S sees grime pioneers Macabre Unit go up against fellow UK producer Rowl, with doubly devastating results. Macabre Unit's "Clockwork" is simply brilliant - a stripped down burner with a crisp, Blawan-esque 2-step drum pattern, deep basslines and a slowly rising four-chord pad sound, all mixed together with huge amounts of tension. Rowl goes for a more murky sound with "Think About You" - a complex and deep banger with a worming bassline thread through dubby atmospheres and crackling drums.
