Bodyjack 'Cobra Effect EP' (Dext Records)
Bodyjack previously appeared on Dext with a Dubspeeka remix, and now returns to the label with this storming three-track EP. The title track has a sinister bass drone, tin pot percussion and drums, all of which make it perfect for those twisted dancefloor moments. It’s followed by ‘Hydra Effect’, which makes use of an infectious bassline, loose broken beats, analogue bleeps and an unexpected diva vocal, while main-room jam ‘Slo Wine Effect’ rounds things off with mammoth bass, snapping snare and eerie synths.
