Hooversound Presents: Special Request & Tim Reaper
Pull Up - (6:09) 165 BPM Hot
Quiet Storm - (5:14) 165 BPM
Straight Off The Block - (5:43) 165 BPM
Review: Now this most certainly is a treat we find ourselves stumbling upon as the legendary Special Request links up with Team Reaper on Hooversound for a super energetic four-track expanse. Kicking off with the dystopian synthesizer pads of rolling breakbeat arrangements of 'Elysian Fields', kicking us off in serious style before 'Pull Up' takes us down a much more nostalgic road, combining choppy jungle breaks with a lethal bass tone below with epic results. Next, 'Quiet Storm' combines uplifting arpeggios with voluptuous drum processing to give us a super uplifting vibe, before the stretched out jungle snare slaps and moogy bassline pressures of 'Straight Off The Block' provide us with the perfect outro.

Spectral Frequency EP
Spectral Frequency - (6:18) 165 BPM Hot
Inverse Frequency - (6:14) 164 BPM
Review: Rightly so, Paul Woolford sees his Special Request project stamped and approved by R&S with this fully sick Spectral Frequency EP. Lifting the title-track from the Zero Fucks compilation Woolford released last year, this insane banger of experimental jungle comes backed by a sidewinding beatless version in "Inverse Frequency". The EP sees two new numbers in the bassline driven bliss of "No Other Way To Say It" and the uplifting arpeggios of "Family Doggo" that offers some respite in techno from the bonafide mad breaks of "Spectral Frequency". Undeniably good. Tip!

Spectral Frequency
Spectral Frequency - (6:18) 165 BPM
Review: If you like things harsh and jungley, packed full of amen sounds and couched in the audio aesthetic of grimy warehouses and early morning smoking area haze, this is the release for you. Courtesy of Special Request via the label R&S, Spectral Frequency takes you on a journey up and down the spectrum of dancefloor frequencies. The destination? Jungle city, and it's a rough town that finds beauty in its disorder. This track climbs and climbs, distorted breaks forming the bedrock of its acceleration, before crashing onto the waves of amens which form its main body. It's perfect for the dancefloor and a seriously atmospheric method of transport.

20 Years Of Fabric
Various
J Majik - "The Lost Tribe" - (5:16) 162 BPM
Review: This second 20 Years Of Fabric compilation presents a new arranged selection of the defining network of artists that have come to call fabric home. Taking in deep and atmospheric loops from Groove Armada to the light and sprinkled chords of Call Super, the sound of the Farringdon trips through the live and acoustic percussions of Margaret Dygas, the devastating hardcore cuts of Special Request and pure strads of drum and bass by Source Direct and J Magick. More recent tracks include the epic classicalisms of B.Traits acid-flecked "Mameya" to the industrial and dubbed out techno from Marcel Dettmann and Imogen. And not to be overlooked of course are bonafide classics from Unkle, Shackleton, Cassy and Sascha with "Comet Chaser".
