January: 10 dubstep & grime releases you need to hear this month
Gun fingers at the ready
JLSXND7RS 'S.N.M' (Lowriders Recordings)
Dutch producer JLSXNDRS specialises in the darkest of grime beats, and ’S.N.M’ is certainly no exception. It’s his first for Lowriders and lead track, ‘Swift’, also sees off-beat flow champ Nico Lindsay lace firecracker vocals over a demonic, hollowed-out instrumental; each and every bang lands with its own sense of impending, nightmarish doom. On the flip, it’s left to Trends to bludgeon with his own lethal brand of pummelling beats and searing claps.
