Pessimist
Glued (feat Loop Faction) - (6:32) 104 BPM
Review: Pessimist has been releasing drum'n'bass since 2010, but as this, his debut album shows, his music is hard to categorise. That said, a bleakly atmospheric streak runs through Pessimist. Allied with his innovative drum programming and ability to conjure up the most powerful sub-bass tones in electronic music, it makes for an unforgettable work. There are high-speed rollers like "No Matter What" to satisfy his core fan base, but when he moves into less defined areas, the album really shines. "Bloom" is a wild ride, all crashing cymbals and live drums, while the tribal groove on "Grit" is supported by a bass that is so darkly viscous, it could be mistaken for an oil slick. Best of all though are "Peter Hitchens" and "Spirals", where Pessimist creates morose moods over rattling drums and skeletal percussion.

Review: Carla dal Forno and Tarquin Manek together are Tarcar and they're here to sign off another winner of a year from the now cult-like Blackest Ever Black label. There isn't much that BEB haven't deserved a medal for, and they have yet again amazed us with their ludicrously on-point artistic repertoire! Mince Glace is a true thing of beauty, an album which doesn't give a damn about genre or style, but instead travels the treacherous paths between noise, drone, dub and pretty much any other genre of music! In our opinion, the nuttiest cit on here has to be "Emboldened" for it wavy jazz edge and far-out melodies, but be sure to also check out "Fireball" for a real spin down the wormhole. Lovely stuff from both label and artists. Don't miss it.

Festival Of The Dead
Belladonna Theme - (3:10) 100 BPM
Review: Blackest Ever Black's unwavering commitment to gracing 2014 with some of the most distinct sounds continues apace as their latest long player sees the return of William Bennett's Cut Hands project. Entitled Festival Of The Dead, this new album feels like the next logical progression in the Cut Hands sound, with the label describing it as "most potent distillation yet" of Bennett's "malign percussive energy". If you checked lead track "The Claw" which was made available to stream when BEB first announced the album, you will no doubt have an idea of what to expect but this relentless, bracing approach shown there is not the only card played by Bennett across the album. Indeed it's the moments where the sonics get twisted and chewed up (such as the suitably named "Parataxic Distortion") that prove most memorable.
