Review: Sorrow makes a long-overdue return to Inspected with his first EP of the year and he's not left anything to chance. Taking every soul-arresting aspect of his work we've fallen in love with over the years - from the breath-taking ambience to more pumped clubbier beats - he's laid his whole soul to bare...Both "Reverie" and "Want U Back" shuffle and switch on pensive sci-fi UKG twists, "Frumoasa" touches on the Balearic with its shimmering guitar, "Sheol" reminds us of Sorrow's darker side with its tubular ruffage bass textures while "The Twelve" points us in the direction of triphop's most sumptuous mezzanine. Twelve out of ten.
Review: White Peach continue putting out this quality AND QUANTITY of great music, then there's no telling where this imprint might land in the coming year. Most importantly, they're recruiting a selection of artists who really stand out from the crowd, and who have managed to solidify their own variation of bass music. Bristol's Sorrow is one such artist, and "Brawler" is precisely the sort of gnarly beat attack that we're always on the lookout for her at Juno HQ, which is proudly followed by the equally destructive wobbles of "Saw Manz Nan". "Skengman Tantrum" is a rolling, itchy sort of bass mutant, and "Fruitella" makes a little nod to the London grime scene, circa '03. Heavy.
