Review: DJ Crisps is starting to make some handy garage moves after a couple of various artists' appearances and a fine EP on Time Is Now Germany in July. Now they link up with Oldboy who appeared on Burnski's other label Vivid back in 2022. As you should expect these are four hardcore and rudely garage cuts with plenty of swagger, naughty samples and bass-face potential. 'On My Way' is the standout with its shuffling one-two drum punch, distant police sirens and warped basslines underneath a timeless and irresistible female vocal full of soul. A summer scorcher for sure alongside three more very useful weapons.

Review: To open up the launch of Tapian Tax with their first official drop, we welcome four explosive producers to the table, exploring the more unique side of breaks across scintillating original creations here. First up, DJ Sunroof lifts the roof off with 'No Style', a 'Horsepower' driven roll through broken garage beats and warbling subby LFO's, with the the jittering synthesiser plays and high intensity break chops of 'Double Negative' providing the perfect backdrop for Phasmid to showcase his skill. Next, bouncing beauty as the metallic drum dips and flippant chops of 'Kingpin' from K-65 inject another full level of energy into the mix, with the more jungle-inspired rhythms, samples and sub warbles of Oldboy's 'Scrap' then closing us off in style.

Review: The latest from Burnski's Vivid label is a three way split, six track affair with Oldboy, Xander and Longeez each dispatching a pair of tunes in the label's trademark roughneck breakbeat style. Oldboy kicks off proceedings with the speedy junglisms of 'Blackbird' before the chunkier, funkier and a little more traditionally paced breaks heft of 'Walrus Party'. Xander's 'If I Tell EM' and 'Get To The Point' both plays off two step rhythmic twists and menacing bass against dreamy synths and more breakbeaty flourishes, before Longeez closes proceedings with the slightly sparser 'Evermore' - super sharp hi hats and echoing rasta dialogue - and the appropriately spinback-peppered 'Wheel Up'.

Review: Gimme A Break are back in business with this high octane selection from Oldboy, who leaves no stone unturned in his quest to up the pace within new school breakbeat. We open up with the vibrant, hard hitting drum displays of 'Get Em Up', which through a combination of quirky percussive sound and jittering drum samples gives us a really high energy introduction, followed closely by the warbling LFO's and 4x4 rhythmic backdrops of title track 'Mule Kick'. We then dive into the glitchy and the weird as 'Sound O' Da Metro Centre' unleashes an 8-bit sounding masterclass in digital melody, followed by the more intricately layered drum clatters of 'Unsettled', which continues the high energy feelings set earlier on the EP, this time with some seriously cool acidic additions. Finally, P?p? Elle 808 gives 'Unsettled' another tasty rework, rounding off the project with a euphoric switch up!
