Ziro returns to Crazylegs for a third time since debuting on the label in 2012 with 'Coded'.

New EP 'Lion Heart' sees him make the a solid transition to one of grime's more innovative and with it, insular, producers, as evidenced by the arresting rhythms and missile-like bass cannons on opener 'Lionheart'. The razor-sharp mechanics of 'Strafe' feat Bloom are also a statement, but it's the peak-time bite of 'Dun Talk' with regular sparring partner Riko that really shines. Though the cloaked melodies and hushed, wandering square waves of 'Distance' are ace too.
