Basic Rhythm returns to Raw Basics, this time with a couple of mates in tow.
Kicking off the A side is a collaboration with long time friend Tim Reaper. The title track to the EP, Revival opens with lush pads and stepping drums, before unleashing tumbling breaks and a chest rattling sub that roll through to the breakdown and second drop, when the true chaos of the Hardcore influence is unleashed with an updated oldskool stab riff, drawing as much on early C4C tracks as from 93 Hardcore.
The second track, On The 86 (Romford Mix) opens with a dark drone and tumbling breakbeat punctuated with stabs, before letting loose the breaks and a huge bass line evocative of early ‘90s Hardcore but with a contemporary approach. This one is a dance floor smasher! This is followed by a digital only alternative version of On The 86. The (Stratford Mix) opens with airy pads and a more militant break pattern before dropping into the breakdown, drawing for some old rave stabs before unleashing the breaks and bass for a modern take on the current oldskool revival.
Track four is a collaboration with Sully. Apache (Let The Bass Go) opens with a pitched and filtered break and pads, gradually dropping down into a “proper Hardcore riff” accentuated by scattering pitched breaks and sub bass. Wait for the switch on this one though! And watch your bass bins!
The last track, Help Me, more overtly nods to the sound of 92, with lush pads a classic vocal sample and rolling breaks. This one has a low fi edge and pure 92 Hardcore energy combined with modern production techniques. Watch this one devastate the dance floor and get the ladies raving!
The Revival EP doesn't let up for a moment, with dance floor killers from start to finish this one needs to be in your record box!
