Boxed return with the third edition of their various artists EP series, showcasing the best in forward-thinking grime.
Boxed's own Mr. Mitch leads the EP off with a rare and special appearance on vinyl; simultaneously graceful and unsettling the anthemic Friend of Mine flips a soul sample in screwed and chopped fashion while ghostly hi hats rotate around its vibrating reese bass core.
For the A2, we very pleased to present the debut vinyl appearance of AS.IF KID. One of the most technically gifted and consistent new grime producers, his productions are battered by Mumdance, Slimzee, Slackk, Logos and more. Mashman Riddim Pt.2 recalls the technical ruffige of prime Plasticman or Mark One whilst pushing his sound in to new hi-definition territory.
Fresh from delivering one of the albums of 2015, OG grime don JT The Goon unleashes his long awaited slate Flux Capacitor, a long-time staple of Oil Gang's DJ sets. Fairlight-era flutes orbit a classic JT bassline for pure emotional, end-of-night vibes.
Closing the EP Sirpixalot drops his VIP of All In One, trademark modal keys and skittering drums combining with triton bass in what has become the South London producer's signature style.
Philadelphia's Starkey operates in his own head-spinning sonic universe, blending laser-like pinpricks of sound with tripping rhythms. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 10, 2016
