Review: The Distorsion team have gone out of their way with this brand new compilation drop entitled 'Breakbeat Essentials', which sees them pull together a super impressive twenty-part selection, showcasing the best of breakbeat artists right about now. From the more twisted bass designs of 'Fucking Beat' from Hankook and Eztereo's 'Have To Go' to Yo Speed & Mutantbreakz's super techy arrangements of 'Need More Dog', we see this compilation explore such a vast range oft he breakbeat sound, shining a light on some of the more under-appreciated areas of the sound. Some of the immediate standouts have to include Suga7's super intricate bass soundscaping on 'Let Me Hit', alongside the crunchy, horn-like textures on Kid Panel's 'Kasmir'. Awesome work!
Review: As a consistent label project, it's hard to ignore how much work LW Recordings have been putting in over the past few months, bringing forward high quality compilation after high quality compilation. Here we see them unveil the 12th edition of their 'Sublime Breaks & Beats' series, boasting twenty five original scorchers. For us the immediate highlights have to include the super groovy chord movements and catchy bass melodies of 'Simmer Skank' from Zemon, alongside Blackboxx's smooth roller 'Closer' and Eater's punchy trap sheller 'Pop It'.
