Current Value & Maztek - 8/10

A debut collab from neurofunk hard-hitters Maztek and Current Value – and a reminder that many of the funkiest rhythms in d'n'b right now are to be found coded deep into the dark textural waves of nosebleed tech tracks.

Pinioned by galloping, expertly grainy snares that slap hard but never feel faceless, those endless scything synth waves serrate down like steel talons biting into rich wood – but with space and perfectly weighted funk sass. Reminding us of Chase And Status's 'Welcome To The Jungle', with its infectious, scudding layers of compressed midrange, you can't fail to move to this.
