Pseudonym Records of of London, UK, publish hard and aggressive drum & bass, giving a nostalgic vibe for the genre’s heydey of the 1990s. Jurango and Glances offer up two utterly menacing tracks each.
Subact are based out of Dresden, Germany, and are friends of myself and my former blog, A Miscellany Of Tasteful Music. They produce a very hyperactive electronic music sound, and the energy given out is dance-floor-friendly. As well as dubstep, one can hear ragga, jungle, and if you can believe it, Krautrock. Yes! They have managed to be one of the few bands who have legitimately modernized the genre, rather than serve as retro band copying the masters (which I have no problem with, to be honest). It’s good that the lads have managed to keep evolving as any good artist should be doing, and this EP is a natural progression for the band.
