Tom “Squarepusher” Jenkinson is an English electronic music producer who makes drum & bass and acid. His experimental approach to these genres makes him stick out as he continuously fuses progressive jazz with bass music, allowing for an overall mind blowingly unique auditory experience. As a skilled bassist and multifaceted musician, it isn’t unlike Squarepusher to play and record a number of different instruments and sample them into his tracks. His live show consists of a massive LED wall that is specifically programmed to follow every subtle change in sound, a fret-less bass guitar, a laptop and various hardware creating a very interactive experience for any lucky viewers. When looking at artists in today’s evolving music world it is important to pay attention to which producers are the ones pushing the boundaries of EDM and venturing into unknown territory. Squarepusher does just this as he continues to combine various instruments with futuristic bass music allowing for a unique and different perspective on these increasingly obscure genres of music.

“I’ve started thinking about pure electronic music again. Something very melodic, very aggressive”.

Up-and-coming drum & bass/dubstep producer Xilent‘s highly anticipated 4 track EP titled “Ultrafunk” is finally available  for our listening pleasure via beatport. While some are controversially claiming “Ultrafunk” to be a brand new sub-genre that has emerged through this release, here at SoundLogik we fully support the mashing and breaking down of different genres to create new innovative sounds and this release seems to be doing just that. Take a look at the eloquent descriptions Audioporn Records has put together for each track on the EP:

1. Xilent – Twisted

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

A new dawn sci-fi intro is accompanied by a distant heavily processed triplet time beat, until a breakdown of sweeping rushes of bass lead to a pure euphoric crescendo before the drop. The main body of the track itself utilises a militant robo triplet beat underpinning an answer and call arrangement between a staccato one note warning signal and bass warps and rushes which propel the track along with an irresistible swing and rhythm into further bass drum and snare switch ups and dread style bass growls. This is pure cerebral leftfield dancefloor business, sounding and moving feet like nothing else. No doubt those who produce will pick over the multitude of subtle flourishes and genius studio touches, for the rest, just get on your feet and enjoy the futuristic mechanical funk of Xilent’s latest android banger.

2. Xilent – Ultra

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

A suspense laden opening is overlain with the repeated spoken hook ‘everything begins with ultra, its time to create a new culture’ – somewhat a mantra for Xilent who is indeed spearheading a new way to look at bass culture, straddling the divides between those who like to rave, the critics, mainstream radio and the tech heads. The track itself rattles along with ratchet tight tech bass drum and snare, as heavily processed mid range and bass trills and weaves around the beats, switching effortlessly in feeling to otherworldly ambience at the breakdown and then back once again to the funk fueled riffs. Almost giger-esque in its biomechanoid marrying of the soul and feel and robotic perfection, this once again showcases a sound that no-one else can hope to match.

3. Xilent – Beyond

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

When Zane Lowe announces a track as his ‘Hottest Record In The World’, as he did with ‘Beyond’ (bagging the worldwide exclusive in the process) it’s a significant breakthrough for any artist, and while Xilent is already critically acclaimed in the bass culture underground is it testament to his talent and ambition that the accolades from mainstream media continue to tumble in. ‘Beyond’ encapsulates everything that Xilent represents at this present time with a swirling ethereal reverb drenched vocal and synth intro, dropping down into an off beat but always rolling drum pattern which keeps you guessing at every turn, while retaining the flow to keep the dance moving. The bass production which surrounds it is nothing short of a masterclass with multiple syncopated layers of buzz bass, drills, warps, synth flashes and raining snatches of melody all combining to produce bass destroying mayhem within a track bursting with creativity and delicate touches.

4. Xilent – Do It

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

Opening with glorious sweeps and rushes and a female vocal ghosting through the mix, this is a moment to catch your breath in the dance, for hairs on end spine tingling expectation as the layered warmth of the intro washes over you. At the breakdown, filtered distant keys rush to the foreground till the drop where Xilent’s incredible production is as always nothing less than revelatory. Filtered synths pulsate around the beats, clinical in their efficiency but packed full of what is sorely lacking in so many DnB productions – soul, feeling and expression. As with many previous Xilent tracks, it is the space in between, the gaps in the mix that give the track its identity. This is a DnB track par excellence, full of joy and dancefloor ability but also soaked in melancholia and equally apt for an after party dawn as a hands in the air sunset. Pure brilliance.
