about

What do you get if you combine the witty production skills of a breakbeat & studio veteran like Bob Humid, and the banging soundworks of an upcoming artist like Scale, especially considering their pretty congruent musical taste for bad ass precision Drumfunk of the likes of Ed Rush, Optical, Photek, Alpha Omega, Dom & Roland or Hidden Agenda? Exactly, a pulsating critical mass in form of a techsteppy D’n’B-slammer that will surely find many friends along the lines of those who love tracks with an emphasis on character.

“The Material” departs from generic structures that are flodding the media world today and D’n’B in general. It combines a complex arrangement of a crisp 2-step-beat with biting synth-lines, syncopated percussions à la “Helicopter”, some very heavy and bolshy brass works, all wrapped up in a slim-tie-secrent-agent-soundtrack -suite that is best enjoyed with a dry martini in one hand.

"The air is full of information for the spies of today..."
