'True Stories' saunters in with a displaced but familiar swagger, trademark beats roll into a plucked guitar funkism and the vocal
that drifts over the top subtly delivers the tracks title. The drop stutters to a peak and gives way to an almighty neuro bassgrind
that never becomes too overbearing but does the job extremely effectively. The result of this genius collaboration sits stylistically
somewhere between Ed Rush & Optical's classic 'Bacteria' and Noisia's 'Concussion'. Add a scuba diving second breakdown with
teeth, and you have a massive hit on New Zealand student radio, which has sat at number 3 on the national alternative chart.
'Lonely Planet' has a menacing tone which sets the pace for the sci-fi wind up with distant 'huh's' yelling at the quivering robotic vocal that
anchors the tune. Rolling drums pause for a moment to unleash the sub-heavy bassline accentuated by uneasy percussion and other
world mutterings and effects, while a distorted lead sparingly lifts the track as its bassline does all the work. Fans of the lads' 'Back to
The Jungle' will definitely be ready for a trip to the 'Lonely Planet'. Samurai Music is a label from New Zealand primarily focused on
providing a benchmark for New Zealand drum n bass producers, both new and old to aspire to. A&R'd by DJ Presha, expect the
cream of New Zealand's freshest talent to be providing beats for Samurai Music, to be released in unique art and packaging strictly on
10" vinyl. International guest releases are also planned on Samurai Music, the main criteria being an affinity with the New Zealand
scene and vibe. The first of these guests will be Mr Tom Withers aka Klute, who is a close friend of Aotearoa and its drum and bass
scene, and a regular visitor for the past 7 years. Watch for 4 more releases to follow in quick succession from Klute, Mosus, Trei &
Dose with many more to come.
