Review: Fresh from laying down the massive 'London' on Young Guns earlier this year, young Brizzle badman Hyn fires up the engine on rising Welsh label Breeze. Another very generous bundle of cuts, once again he's showcasing some serious talent. 'Frequency' takes the lead with some raw sandpaper style bass textures over a precision two-step while 'Monster' is a gloopy, toxic muddy swamp of a track that threatens to suck you into its perils at any minute. Elsewhere 'Evacuate' is a tense and chilling piece of bassline moodiness with some great random drum work in the mix while 'Fear' finishes with the naughtiest breakbeat-based rattler of the set. Breeze? Hurricane more like.

Review: Released in 1999 by Lenny Fontana, remixed by Nu:Tone in 2005; 'Spread Love' is an absolute anthem in both house and liquid circles and has been a standard ever since. Now it's story continues into the new decade as Makoto and Pete Simpson cover it with total respect and charm. Still like sticking your head in the middle of gospel choir, still one of the most positive tunes you could ever play, this special cover to mark Hospital's 25th anniversary is faithful in every way. Comes complete with a rough and ready amen slap-about 'Contact'. Spread the word.

Review: One of the regular labels we feature are Sub Heavy Audio, a fantastic label that puts out a diverse sound ranging from techy rollers to jump-up steppers and even liquidy numbers. This week they've arrived with an EP from Damageman, who, across three tracks, spans various tones and styles, all of them rooted in a sense of dancefloor aggressiveness and all of them top-notch. 'What Doing' is a highlight, its rolling percussive line is pacey, loping and satisfying, whilst a smooth bass and sweeping low frequencies sit just above and inject all the force. 'War' is also a wicked track, with a lovely, stripped back drum line that's full of moody sonics. Top stuff.
