Consequence

Snakes & Skulls/ Dub Bounce Consequence

After Consequence's debut album on Exit as a virtually unknown producer with only a couple of releases to his name, he has blossomed into a much loved and highly regarded musician who's compositions have that rare listen again quality. His work has been an integral part of the Autonomic movement over the past two years and will continue to be long into the future. With a recently completed second solo album and also a collaborative album project with friend Joe Seven under the alias 'They live' on the release schedule, Exit Records present this single as the first of a 10" series reminding us of his talent. On this 10" he turns his hand to the 140 bpm deep dub style and proves that his sound has no boundaries. 'Snakes & Skulls' As usual Consequence manages to mix calming ambience with vibrant drums to achieve that cinematic trait that he's known for. Combining those elements with earth shaking sub bass he works up an organic sounding roots track that beats away with entrancing tribal energy. Unintelligible vocals flutter in and out with filtered drum effects and percussion creeps in and out which keeps the whole piece moving nicely. 'Dub Bounce' is truly a remarkable insight into Consequences ability to create character and trigger emotion with his music. Drums and bass swing so hard they could break your neck Dilla style, whilst despairing atmospheres and odious sound effects wreak havoc on your sense of security like watching a horror flick on acid. Production quality and depth of sound are second to none which comes as standard with Consequence, but this track has it in abundance and is sometimes unfathomable. Its deep and its very dark, but also highly addictive so use with caution
