Tradition - (4:58) 131 BPM
Tradition (Pad Roller remix) - (4:02) 130 BPM

Review: As two of the real flag-flyers for the Keysound movement, it's exciting to see the combined prowess of both Dusk & Blackdown once again landing on the label, for the sixth edition of the 'Rollage' series, delivering a tidy original backed by blistering remix additions. First up, the title track 'Tradition' gives us a metallic fusion of robotic drum crunches and uniquely processed bass instrumentation, delivering a fiery feel from start to finish. The remixes then bring an extra level to the table as the Pad Roller remix firstly unveils a more 4x4-inspired overhaul, followed by the Gqom-Wrong edition, a percussive-driven crunch-fest of a rework. Finally, the 'Weightless' mix gives us an eerie peer into the more abstract side of electronic music, clothing things off with a unique bang.

Commotion EP
Commotion - (4:15) Hot
Nightcrawler - (4:31)
Spark It - (4:48)
Road - (4:38)
Review: Bringing a classic approach to dread-filled dubstep paranoia, Wen steps up to Keysound with a swagger that would sit comfortably alongside the sub-hassling pressure of DMZ. "Commotion" rubs back and forth in a cold refrain devoid of melody in favour of unrelenting bass and distant wraiths of sound, only inhabited by a scattered slice up of an MC. "Nightcrawler" heads into a grimier territory, working some crafty synth moves and a keen sense of sound design into a dynamic stalker of a track, while "Spark It" deconstructs electro down to its barest ingredients, and slamming a hefty bass throb underneath. "Road" completes the package in morbid fashion, making it a sturdy four tracker of the most fearsome kind of dubstep.

Review: With the series of 12" s garnering ever more praise among dubstep purists, Keysound capitalise on the appreciation of the LHF collective and issue forth a whole album's worth of material under the appropriate title Keepers Of The Light. The reason the crew is heralded is not because of some stout insistence on making endless monochrome 2003 style dubstep, but because the vitality the genre poses at its best is evident throughout their output. There's a heavy focus on Indian classical samples in many of the tracks which harks back to Dusk & Blackdown's Margins Music, but really the whopping 26 track selection is pushing a brand of freshness in a half-step context which is all their own.
