Review: Guido Productions is the alias of Guy Middleton of Bristol, United Kingdom. He heads up State Of Joy in addition to having released on top labels like Punch Drunk and Tectonic. The Unknown EP features some fierce and futuristic expressions in UK bass music. From the abstract beat theory of "Babu Lamu" the sublime title track with its exotic instrumentation and "Would Oud Mind" a jagged grove that is certainly heavy on the low end side of things. For the uninitiated, we would also highly recommened his previous Onward EP, also on State Of Joy.
Review: Starting from his early releases for the likes of Punch Drunk, underrated and sorely understated artist Guido returns to State Of Joy with some of his signature bass flavours, this time rocking the groove with two KILLAH cuts! The first, "Onward", is a proper UK bass march, guided by nostalgic instrument samples and his own percussive style - original style - whereas "Blazing Trails" verges on the funkier end of the spectrum thanks to a funky, expansive bass, and delightful waves of neo-melodica. Bruisin'!
