Been a while since I had my head kicked in by some gabber & breakcore. Glad it's still going to be honest. There's plenty of screwed heads out there that need a regular rinsing. The bastard mutoid child of D'n'B & hard techno, this kind of sound relies on pummeling kick drums, squiggling basslines that collide like hyper atomic energy & some shards of white noise & digital distortion all thrown into a blender. Whilst some tracks on 'Rotate & Reverse Polarity', like Teknoist's effort, are more straight dark gabber ala Hellfish & the Deathchant crew, Michael J Rocks sets music on fire, throws it all down the stairs and then pisses on the embers. Eustacian makes diseased mutant hip-hop with distorted vocals, Binray offers up whipcrack Schematic style digital techno for mad people with some stunning mid period Aphex wobble synths all maxed up into some demented orbit round yr brain (my fave track by far!) Shoutput actually breaks my CD drive, much to my annoyance so this is where this review terminates whilst I punch my computer in the face several times till it bleeds megabytes & digital terror onto my pulped fists. Maybe that was the whole point, to get me fired up and get an aggressive response? Now I'm gonna have to have a camomile tea & a sleep cos i'm exhausted! Only kidding folks! I'm actually off garden hopping & cherry knocking dressed as a vampire in drag! Hyuck hyuck hyuck!
