SR 'Forgotten Era EP' (36 Hertz)
While Eveson rightly takes the crown for creating the most exquisite old-skool throwbacks, Mike Vapour’s trusty 36 Hertz knows how to throw down a head-turning salute too. A simply excellent EP of lush, updated hardcore and early jungle signatures, lead track ‘MC DJ’ can’t fail to get you moving, its gunning warehouse-style sub bass and loping old-skool tempo housing a trove of vintage vocal hiccups and humble synth parps. Less crackly and textured than some we’ve heard, but unbridled fun from start to finish.
