Review: The Muti Music team have delivered a very tasty treat for us to sink our teeth into here as Mat The Alien unleashes two system-ready rollers as part of this colourful new two-track delight. We open up with the constantly shifting backdrops and fluid arrangements of 'Bat Yam', a crunchy dive down systemic bass bulges and unique percussive clicks, shifting towards a minimal drum pattern to match. On the flip, we take in 'BC Collective', a moody soundscape exploring half-time rhythms and grizzly horn stabs, giving us an almost crime-syndicate sounding anthem. Wicked work all around!
Review: Dubstep as a whole is in a very healthy place right now, and artists pushing the boundaries of 140 music as a whole across the globe is a big factor behind that. This latest four track delight from Ape Suit is a perfect example of that creativity in action as we kick off with the murky undergrowth and lethal yet subtle reesey tones of 'Abounding Happiness'. Next, 'Human Adult' takes us down a road of crunchy percussive genius and gnarly bass rolls, before the more high tempo drum arrangements and colourful melodic synth textures of 'Tromp L_OEIL' drag us down a different avenue entirely. Finally, 'The End' is a perfect closer, combining warm, fuzzy bass tones with more delicate drum work with incredible results. Awesome work!
