Sabre - 10/10

Plasma bag yet another A-list coup as Alix Perez beasts Sabre's 2014 wonk-out with a ten-tonne half-time snarler of immense power. Compressed, squashed, wrung-out layers of filthy bass pressure slide and warp like vast tectonic plates beneath a premium knit of industrial percussive gratings, and the effect is at once hypnotic, funky and deadly. Wow.
