Aah, the breakbeat, the very foundations on which the British underworld of dance music was built upon, takes it rightful place once again, and Will Azada royally plunders the spirit of the rave scene on his opening track, ‘Mysterious White Powder’. The Tennessee based producer & DJ locks into the early UK sound on his ‘Proper Traxx’ EP, and debut offering for Hypercolour. On the flip side, the theme continuous on ‘Let’s Get Tight’, all heavyweight stabs and knarly 909 drums, whilst the gloriously titled ‘A Night In The Life Of Mr. Dirtbag McDiscopants’ plays a straight 4/4 beat, and attacking it with breathy vox stabs and rave horns, you’ll be transporting yourself back to Dreamscape circa 91 after you’re done with this EP More

New Kanada welcomes London's Bob Bhamra into the chamber, with this two-track breaker from his West Norwood Cassette Library (WNCL) guise. "Say What?" is a broken sub workout, with a strong nod to the hardcore continuum. Distant alarms, aggressive drums, and deep bass drops make this a floor-killer for all sound camps. "Flashlight" is an aqueous solution of damp funk that will resonate the head and drop the lights. Gaseous and moody.
On the flip is a slow burner remix of "Flashlight" by Adam Marshall - sitting somewhere between tired breaks and acid reggae. 11 minutes of Moog.
