Mystry 'Graveyard Shift' (Stripes)
Mystry’s latest for Stripes follows 2015’s killer EP ‘Pulse 8’, a record that marked him as one of grime’s elite beat-makers. On ‘Graveyard Shift’ he flaunts a similar trap lean across all seven tracks, although as with bullish opener ‘Shinobi’, his beat patterns certainly feel less predictable. The title track is an absolute monster with an off-key barrage of square wave bass stabs, but our tips are the iced-out, eerie calm of ‘Ghost Town’ and the booming trap bounce of ‘Defeat’.
