Jamie Grind – Footwork EP

Glasgow’s Fortified Audio are currently preparing their 2011 assault and first up is Jamie Grind with the “Footwork EP”.

The title track opens the EP with vocal snippets chopped and layered over a light percussive backing, short snappy synth loops and a serious amount of sub bass. Hackman pops in next to throw his hat into the ring on “Saw The Light” with it’s chipmunk vox and wobbly bass interludes before “Without You” lands next and proves the stand out track of the EP for me.

Utilising anthemic pads, light vocals and a shuffly garage break to brilliant effect, it’s the kind of track that makes sense at 1PM and 1AM. “Now You Know” closes the EP and appears in a moody puff of smoke with melancholy synth work and a main hook that whistles it’s way into your memory.

Available digitally in early January exclusively at Boomkat with vinyl to follow later in the month. The cracking artwork is also worth a mention and is the work of Drew Millward.

Instra:mental – Voyeur

Another week, another brilliant Instra:mental release. With their “Resolution 653″ album now scheduled in for April next year, it seems they haven’t slowed up a tad.

This is their debut for Skream’s Disfigured Dubz imprint and is another example of why their debut album is one of 2011′s most anticipated releases. Following on from recent brilliant electro tinged techno 12″ “Zones”, “Voyeur” sees the duo ramp it up to 135 and retain their trademark atmospherics and bass overload (the bass sound recalling the very best of the Audio Blueprint sound) with a creepy “Let’s Talk” style vocal sample.

Available now at Boomkat.

George FitzGerald – Don’t You EP

Hotflush are maybe one of the most underrated labels of 2010. While not big on the number of releases, the quality is always very high.

To kick off 2011 they have George FitzGerald back with the “Don’t You” EP. Its 2 step and garage leanings intertwined with a high synth repeat is combined with a low soulful vocal edit to create a strangely hypnotic brew. The flip side has a more upfront beat by SCB while still retaining the atmosphere of the original.

Johnny Beverton – Polymol

Translation Recordings recently impressed us with their brilliant “Without Borders” compilation and as the year draws to a close they’ve lined up an impressive release from new producer Johnny Beverton.

The name’s a new one on me but he’s definitely impressed with his debut for the imprint. “Polymol” is a fairly stripped back slice of drum n bass but without resorting to the usual minimal cliches. The funk element is retained with a fuzzy bassline wandering over beats with enough bottom end to have punch and the track sits nicely in that area towards the end of a warm up set.

You can pick this up at the Translation Bandcamp this week and keep one eye on this new producer with further outings on Offworld and Variant Audio.
