Reboot / Bazurk

As one of the original pioneering forces in dubstep, Distance has unleashed a series of hard-hitting, no compromise singles over the last seven years, and two highly-acclaimed albums on the respected elec-tronica imprint Planet Mu; 'My Demons' and more recently, 'Repercussions'. 2011 saw Distance re-lease a single with major label Island Records ('Falling') as well as delivering a precision mix for the esteemed Tempa 'Dubstep All Stars' DJ mix series. Taking a rare excursion away from releasing on his own excellent Chestplate Recordings, Tectonic is very happy to welcome Distance back for this fine release. Restrained but ruff-nek and most definitely ready for action, 'Reboot' has been tearing up clubs over the latter part of 2011. Chiming in with a riff that sounds like a demented modem being fed through a hungry distortion pedal, Distance builds the tension all the way to the drop ... then in come the Distance subs - perfectly formed and totally power-ful - charging the rhythm with a deadly purpose. Big support from Youngsta, Mala, Pinch and many more has already been forthcoming for this leading track. Inverting the wax reveals the devastating 'Bazurk'. Swinging into action with a chattering, wonky hi-hat line, this drop-hammer beast soon mutates into its full form, ripping the clothing from its chest and letting out a deafening metallic roar! Korn may well be widely claiming to be “experimenting” with dub-step a-la Skrillex, but in one resting heartbeat 'Bazurk' makes their efforts sound like music for easily scared little girls. .
