DJ Trax – Collision
Darkstyle Breakbeat, D n B & Jungle for the real heads from DJ Trax in this sleek, metallic-toned, crispy release.
‘Collision’ takes up the entire A side - and deservedly so. With its beefy, late 90’s feeling breakbeats merged with euphoric rave pads, it feels fresh, new and yet aligned with the authenticity of those early ambient D n B records. Like a meeting of all the best bits of jungle and D n B in the 90’s.
‘Those Days’ drops the tempo and energy for a big exhale of a track - it’s all Detroit synth lines over suspended jazz chords, underpinned by double bass and organic breaks. Roni Size Represent era sound.
There B2 ‘Soul & Science’ picks up the tempo again but keeps a strictly chilled-out energy, with reverb drenched female vocal chops, funky keys, and razor sharp, agile beat work.
One for the breakbeat crew.
