"The sound of yesterday, today, tomorrow, and beyond," says a disembodied talking head during the eponymous, brief opener on Beyond, Manchester-based tunesmith Sam Walton's debut LP. It's an appropriate summation of both the Hyperdub label and Walton's output, as Hyperdub has continued to diversify its reach following the partial collapse of dubstep that helped bring forth its birth, and Walton has proven to be one of the imprint's more reliable rising talents in recent years. Across a series of increasingly confident EPs that began in 2011, the young alchemist has taken elements of the grime he grew up on and fused them with various strands of bassline, UK funky, and Detroit techno. Beyond is the most recent—and most accomplished—product of that process. (XLR8R)
