Label:	TECTONIC (UK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	TEC 005EP

"So we now know 2006 is the year of dubstep. With Loefah and Skream's anthemic '28g' the scene had new champions, and Tectonic continue in real style with the debut 12" from Random Trio's Northern warrior Omen. This is dubstep as it was always meant to be, Photek inspired moody beatplay, stinging synth stabs straight out of Renegade Hardware's toolshed and the atmosphere of a violent Eastern movie. It really doesn't get much better than this -- lead track 'Rebellion' is without a doubt one of the dubstep tunes of the year, with a pace and drive to get those hotties nodding all night long. The flipside falls into faster territory, 'Frontline' uses an acidic pulsating bassline and drives it through aggressive snare hits like an 18-wheeler through a garden party, with closing track 'Aphrodite' making sure we realize the mood here is strictly dark with its distorted horror-movie mood and long deep drones."

Title:	The Rise
Label:	TERRAIN
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	TR 002EP

"DJ Omen on N-Type's Terrain imprint. 'The Rise' is true darkcore business, ominous 'yes master' samples suggest subjection, the bass is all there, Skream's dubplate mix echoes into bottomless open spaces with a splenetic beat and label owner N-type runs the voodoo down across the whole of side two. Large!! N-Type is a DJ/producer/label owner who reigns from the deep south! (Surrey in-fact) and Terrain is his label. He has been knocking about on the Underground scene for many years. He is currently a resident at the prestigious night in shoreditch FWD>> and Destructive and also one of the DJs on rotation at the almighty DMZ."
