Drum 'N' Bass
April: 10 drum 'n' bass tunes you need to hear this month
Bop, Black Sun Empire, Noisia and more
Killbox 'Killbox' EP (Ram Records)
After teasing us with some cryptic videos at the back end of last year, Ram finally come up with the goods as Ed Rush and Audio crown their riveting union with an EP of belligerent, bunker-busting tech naughtiness. ‘Bound To Others’ serves up artillery-speed crunchy pogo-tech with Noisia-esque geysers erupting from the murk, while ‘Pitchfork’ wonks out into metallic stop-start rolling glitch territory. Fans of Neosignal and Rockwell will find untold gems, while Ram aficionados will definitely appreciate this knottier, left-of-centre new strain of the family DNA.
