Review: With recent appearances on Encrypted Audio bolstering the support they have been receiving from the likes of N-Type, Swedish duo Kloudmen get snapped up by Hatcha's label to deliver five perfectly executed slices of lean and mean dubstep pressure. "Shifter" matches icy textures with snarling bass and razor sharp mid range grind, while "Atmosphere" heads into gnarlier territory with its blissful keys and swerving low end. "Misery" takes a more focused route into propulsive drum programming, "Nosey" amps up the techno influences and "Ozone" cools the EP off with some limber, jazz inflected beats that show just how much diversity this pair have to offer.
Review: Hatcha's "Hatched" series continues with four more on-point dispatches from tomorrow's dancefloors. Max Mudie takes the lead with tracks. Co-founder of Lovesick Records, "Brystone Road" sees the Brighton-based bass bandit getting all industrial with sheet metal sonic techniques and soundsets while "Dusk" is like a joy ride around the solar system on a stolen turbo-charged rocket. Mutated Mindz sooth proceedings with their ominous "Blitz": deep and dramatic, there's a dreamy essence without getting too lost in itself and losing any dancefloor impact. Hectic's "On Fire" brings us to scary climax as a stuttering beats swagger with menace and a dubbed out vocal sample provides ghostly undertones over the top. Three new names, four amazing slabs of next level dubstep, Hatcha's nailed it once again...
Review: Hatcha's new label ventures forth with their second outing. As to be expected from one of the scene's forefathers, it's another adventure in the furthest, deepest realms of dubstep, taking in the views from techno, ambient and house along the way. DCult's "Shifting Sands" runs amok with deep percussive texture and rich, warm pads. "Fly" is more space-age thanks to its uplifting arpeggios, dubby atmospheres and loopy upward cycles. Finally Isolate & Zekk Tekk's "Hohle Fels" massages our innermost souls with a web of Asian pipes and horns. Hatch your own plan today and grab this...
