Review: Hands up who loves switch flipping! Well you're in for a treat... "1975" starts off as deep, stripped back groove with a strange spoken word bassline. Then BANG: a full fuel acid bassline bombards the mix, bringing a whole series of trippy additional noises with it. "Models" is equally naughty; rolling with a set of Detroit-inclined synths, it extends into another stomping groove complete with an automated list of models past and present. Unique, heavy and distinctive: this is Mumbai Science at their best.
Review: Having dropped sophisticated electro bombshells since 2010 that have been welded into the sets of 2manydjs, Tiga, Erol Alkan and Crookers, Belgian duo Mumbai Science return in style with this EP. Part 1 of the release boasts "Researchers" - a typically tight, acid-influenced belter with a touch of Kraftwerk melody and old-school electro drums on the echoey fills. There's also "Commandments", which takes a slightly slower approach but doesn't skimp on the mind-exploding synth pile-ons and huge squelchy drops for a second. Destined to be rinsed hard in the next few months.
