MORIARTY LOSE IT / FLIP THE SWITCH WESTWAY WESTWAY015

Moriarty was the arch-villian of Sherlock Holmes in Conan Doyle's detective stories. The only criminal to outfox the detective, he was a mysterious figure with an ingenious mind.
Moriarty – Brad Tanner & Steve Walker – aren't arch-criminals, but they do make ingenious music. Signed up by Westway for their dubwise electronic 'Boom Town' track last year, the guys have subsequently remixed Boogie Army, the Utah Saints and Dogtown Clash and now come with this ingenious double-header. 'Lose It' is a big room, deep down and dirty electro-breaks missive with a memorable deep throat vocal emploring dancers to get lost in the moment. “Ladies and gentleman, welcome. I’m your DJ,” runs the refrain, building the runnings up nicely. “Feel the drums, get ready to explode.” This is a DJ-friendly track that’ll have punters climbing the walls around dancefloors everywhere. 'Flip The Switch' on the flip again rocks the electro sound, but in more of a house style. Big things await Moriarty. Brad also produces under the name Tannerlogue, while Steve is resident DJ at Leamington's infamous Smack club in the Midlands. As Moriarty they've been playing out all over, and are currently working on their debut album.


F.O.N.K. SCENIC ROUTE w. TOMMY FOUR SEVEN mix REBEL AUDIO RAR001

LOAN Vs. RIMSHOT END OF NEGOTIATION NCOUNTERZ NCOUNTER002

The nCounterz series are a sub-project of the I.O.T. labels, which main purpose is to join intergalactic forces with other like-minded labels on split EPs. For this second instalment, they team up with Torsion records, also hailing from Marseille downtown area, and give out 2 monster tracks of high octane dubstep induced beats …
Arok, already known for his mental yet dancefloor tracks released on I.O.T. vinyls and CDs, and Probe1 from Torsion records, deliver « The hunt », a half tempo epic travel towards spaces where dubstep, glitch, and breaks influences melt shamelessly at 130 bpm.
The second assault is peak time tunage from Loan (whose first album will be released in 2008 on DTC records), and Rimshot (one half of the Interlope duo, signed on Expressillon records). « End of negociation » illustrates how an exquisite arpeggiator and a devastating bassline can serve no compromise in styles.

HEKTAGON MALEVOLENCE / WE WILL SEE AUDIO FREAKS AF003pt1

Hot on the heels of 002 comes two brand spanking new killer cuts from the Audiofreaks camp provided by rising producer Hektagon, who follows up his previous release with stunning results.
The A side is the deeply sinister and twisted “We Will See”. Twisted Indian classical textures and haunting vocals set the scene nicely, this tune is all about darkness!
Ethnic percussion creeps in and takes us to a perfectly crafted drop that gives you just enough time to take a breath before monstrous subs and growling bass synths kick in to deliver the final blow. Dirt!
Side B shows us why Hektagon is carving a space in dubstep all to himself. Malevolence is a tough, halfstep stomper that will make your teeth rattle. Beautifully delayed pad hits sit on top of a latin beat and a teasing of the bassline to come. Dubby reverbed snares lead us up to a sneaky drop that just oozes menace. Trademark Hektagon synth work sits astride this creeping skanker that is the perfect cure for the recent spate of jump-up inspired dubstep.
