Coming soon: Techno

Review: At first we thought the latest Tectonic Sound compilation had been split into two, then four selectors' EPs, but this sixth edition functions to point out not one but two mistakes; there are six. This is just about the thoroughest divvying up of a full-length compilation we've ever come across, with every track on the full dubstep 24-tracker committed in analogue to its own groove. What ho, given the fact that dubstep is a genre demanding plate cutting for bass response par excellence, so the full compilation form does indeed make less sense for audiophiles, who *will* be able to hear the difference. This sixth selection hears the veteran dearests of Tectonic refire the classic dubstep oven, hearing the likes of RSD 'Roll Off' the tops through musicbox twinkles before high-cut wompage, and Distance bringing xenogenous sound design and serious mecha-dub dissent to 'Heresy'.
