Review: Lukid's side project Refreshers, known for its ravey jungle sound, has maintained a consistent presence over a significant period. The latest offering, 'Bugged,' stays true to Refreshers' signature style of intricate breakbeats, showcasing a blend of new school and old school jungle influences. 'Bugged' and 'High In Me,' demonstrate a sophisticated use of layered breaks within each track, treating the breakbeat as a foundational element akin to a musical harmony. 'High In Me' evokes a sense of underwater tranquility, a mood that persists into 'Make Me Feel So Good,' reminiscent of the playful melodies found in recent works by artists like Doss or Orca. Closing the release, 'Off My Mind' takes a darker turn, offering an eclectic and experimental sonic journey. Lukid continues to push boundaries within the jungle genre through Refreshers, showcasing versatility and creativity in each track.
