Review: The Defrostatica team have come together to unleash a fabulous display of modern juke-music here as they deliver 21 tracks of pure energy, showcasing the full spectrum of footwork across nearly 100 minutes of original sonic wizardry. From the euphoric, almost arpeggiated melodies of Jont1st's 'Pantone Suplex' and disruptive, industrial-like percussion of DJ YumYum's 'Antigene' to the more junglist inspired drum skips of Arcane's war-like 'Won't Deny' original, this project covers an insane amount of ground. There are a couple of clear highlights for us, the first of which has to be the ethereal vocal masterpiece that is Kiat's 'Transcribe', alongside the acidic drips of Sam Binga's 'Carbob' remix, originally coming from HomeSick. What a collection this is.

Review: The Hooversound Recordings team have been making quite a bit of noise of late, so to see this latest project drop from both Hyroglifics and Sinistarr immediatly filled us with excitement. We firstly jump into 'Turbo Island' as Hyroglifics rolls out a high energy bleep-fest, before leaping into three weighty collaborations. The shuffling dub echoes and high energy drums of 'BS6' kick us off in good stead, alongside the glistening breaks of 'Turn It Up' and powerful sub pushes of Sinistarr's solo submission: 'Detroit'. Finally, we take in Scratcha DVA's fantastic rework of BS6, overhauling the track with an incredibly depthy soundscapy feel.

Review: Beware of the Naine Rouge! A Detroit folklore tale that contextualizes the city's spates of bad luck dating back over 300 years, local machine-abuser Sinistarr pays homage to the unique myth with a set of unclassifiable dancefloor smoulder sessions. Two major league tag-teams hit from the off as techno don Stingray313 pairs up for the loopy kickdrum stamping "Track 1" and ghettotech godfather DJ Nasty joins him for a furious footwork fire up "Shake". Elsewhere we get speak & spellbound on the dark stepper "Nonlinear Threats" and "I Pop, I Jit" shakes and stutters with such a rhythmic infectiousness you don't want it to ever end. Another perfect Exit release.

Review: US vibe blender and tempo bender Sinistarr has been one of the most consistent and innovative sources of American leftfield jungle for the best part of a decade now. Of course this return to Prestige is no exception. "L'il Darby" is the jazziest, deepest roller of the set with its woozy plucked strings echoing and shimmering through the groove while "Coalesce" is the grittiest, headiest stepper of the set with its snarling electric bassline that grunts but never gives too much away. Finally we hit "Unfair", a track that's more in-keeping with Sinistarr's fringe beat work across the bass spectrum thanks to its curve-ball stop/starts between halftime, juke and jungle. Something for everyone.

Review: We've been waiting for this since Doc Scott fired up his old ThirtyOne machine just over a year ago. A 24-track collection of stone cold exclusives, this bucks any expectations of the label and its remit and celebrates the very best creativity in all shades of drum & bass. Littered with the best names in the game (Calibre, Nucleus & Paradox, Bungle, Loxy & Resound, Scar, Marcus Intalex and many many more), each cut pushes the bass and riddim envelope with stark, uncompromised creativity and production muscle. The ultimate document of where the best D&B is at, this is nothing short of essential.

Review: This is the original compilation from cult label Horizons and collects 13 killer cuts from a range of rising talent within the D&B community including Saburuku, Naibu, Mutt and Sinistarr. They've been known to describe the mood of their releases as "hoods-up and heads-down" but there's quite a lot of variety on here too: opener "In Control" is restrained and soulful, "Open Wide" features sumptuous female vocals, "The Beautiful Life" is shimmering poolside stuff, while "Rain Maker" is hauntingly raw, "Lynx Is Playing At My House" boasts the 80s soul influences suggested in the title and "Revolution" even boasts guitars!

Review: Detroit may be a city steeped in house and techno heritage, but Sinistarr is flying the Michigan flag when it comes to contemporary drum and bass. Here the producer serves up the "Aquamech" single on the Genres Be Damned imprint, with the title track a stripped back, deeply cerebral excursion into languid beats and soulful vocal snippets. Remixes come from Tapir No Snare (our pick of the bunch), Giocator and Calculon. Highly recommended.

Review: Hailing from the Motor City and with noticeable Detroit techno influences in his productions, Sinistarr brings a refreshing twist to bog standard drum & bass with his latest release on the legendary Metalheadz label. Although experimental and somewhat quirky, A-Side "Mainstay" is far from being exclusively home listening and certainly deserves a place on the dancefloor. On the flip, "Solar 9" features French DJ/producer Redeyes and is a much more abstract, radical offering. Much like Marmite "you either love it or hate it" and frankly, like Marmite, we love it! With a mish-mash of one-shot samples, stabs and hits and an odd sounding vocal snippet declaring "you can't tell us how to play our music, you can't tell us how to play our sound", it's a miracle that it all gels together, but it does, and well!
