Review: 2019 is a year which has seen a major shift in the landscape of music, both in regards to the status of the genre worldwide, and the evolution of the sound itself. One of the leading projects in the more tearout corner of bassline is of course CruCast, a label that remain at the forefront of the sound, shutting down raves around the country every weekend. This latest helping from them comes in the form of a twenty track strong compilation project, featuring some absolute heat from the likes of Papps, Moda, Tengu, JGE, Jay Faded and more. There are a couple of clear standouts for us, with the super original bass rhythms of 'Don't Bother Act' from Tekraw and Dread MC being an immediate earworm, along with the super oldschool niche vibes of 'On My Mind' from Vamos.
Review: It's been a short while since Four40's name was at the front of the conveyor belt but boy are we glad to see them back in action, as they welcome M.O.B, Moda & Devilman inside for the second collection of 'Get Mad' remixes. First up, ANIMATE delivers an electrifying bassy squelcher, focussing on crunchy LFO runs and a constant pinch of vocal flare, followed by Arc Nade, who gives the track a much quicker overhaul, utilising spacey, nostalgia-inducing pad textures, descending into lethal reese action shortly after. Finally, Arundel arrives for a final synthy rethink, deploying lethal bassline runs and sharpened 4x4 drum designs for one final dash of dancefloor delight. Excellent!
