Weird hard to categorize bass music. The first one's some kind of techno, the second two are more like other post-dubstep Hessle oddities. This guy's vying with Joe for best producer with an impossible to Google name (this guy's good, but he's no Joe yet). In classic anonymous techno fashion, the title of the EP is just the catalog number.

RIYL: Basic Channel on deleriants (for the first track). Joe, Ramadanman (for the other two).

1. a couple false starts, hiccups at :30 and 1:00, and keeps going. has a couple more dropouts, but they're not as abrupt as the first two. dubby, echo-y, chaotic techno, though the kicks stumble over one another at times. smeared bleeps, hints of machinery chugging along. heavy but not punishing. 6:20
2. hand drums, booming bass drums, and little washes of atmosphere (transmitter static, tape echoed beeps, truncated tape echoed animal cries). beat drops out for a moment and comes back in just after halfway. phaser on the kicks for a bit towards the end. mostly stays the same throughout with little variations and ripples along the way. jungle like the place, not like the genre (maybe because it makes me think of the jungle level in golden eye). 5:13
3. bouncy, tense, echo-y percussion slowly gets smothered by atmosphere. ringing, echoes from the drums, buried yelps. warm ethereal pads start rising up just before the halfway mark. drums disappear and atmosphere remains after about 5:15 and becomes really quiet in the last :30, so be forewarned and ready to fade up or out as you see fit. 6:37

recommended: any, but #2's probably my favorite.
