The third in a batch of 12"s on Rephlex comes from Boom Blaster which is another of Alexi Perala's (Ovuca, Astrobotnia) pseudonym's. It kicks off on kinda a gangster tip with sounds of gunshots. It gives off a slow motion, hip hop feel with the atmosphere of old dark jungle and comes complete with gangster movie vocal samples and obligatory "Hallelujah" oldskool sample.The second tune is lighter going with it's acidic squelches and sharp snares and hand claps. Then back to the classic braindance chilled sounds of the third tune. The flipside is a bit of a surprise with it's micro clicky 4/4 beat, brief vocal snatch and eerie hovering synths. The type of track you'd probably expect to find on Raster Noton rather than Rephlex. A quality all round EP.

What their label says...
Quite a unique EP, very atmospheric. Lots of styles here, starting out with ambience, breaks and ragga/dubstep, becoming more melodic and gentle but ending up funky, moody & minimal, exploring resonant frequencies and harmonics.
