BLACKBOX 025EP
|
Black Box presents the double EP project Making Simple Things Complex by Data. "Fall of Phaeton" is a reflective piece that weaves muted elements of tr*p-h*p and lush electronics over a synthetic garage framework. On "Laid Bare," soulful vocals are skillfully balanced against rough-edged grunge riffs, clattering drums and acidic motifs. The machine-code ambience of "The Construct" is swiftly dissected by razor-sharp electro beats and mutating sub-sonic themes, which carry through into "Disconnection," where agile halfstep drums and hectic bongo licks propel a rough-edged bassline.

TEMPA 044EP
|
Best-known for his releases under Goldie's Metalheadz imprint, this is Data's first release on Tempa. His sound is more akin to Headhunter and Basic Channel than, say, Benga, and sits more comfortably on your home monitors than it does peak-time on the dancefloor. Moving with the measured pace of experience, "Doors Of Perception" (featuring Cell) is characterized by intermittent sweeps and percussion which add scar tissue to the body of work. "Leaves" references the glory of individuality while remaining grounded.
