Contra : Social Darwinism 
& Asure : Wallbreaker

DTRASH37 "Asure: Wallbreaker"
From Dtrash records comes another round of psychotic, noisy industrial percussion and noise. The comes off at times like a harder version of Photek’s “Modus Operandi”, with that same sense of melody and shifting structure that made Photek great. No particularly special tracks, the CD to me is meant to be listened to as a whole rather than one song, piecing together like an industrial collage of sorts. For those looking for a return to drum n bass with a bit of industrial harshness, this and most anything on DTrash make great picks. Rating: 9.

DTRASH38 "Contra: Social Darwinism"
Psychotic style drum n bass along the lines of a distorted Photek or Squarepusher, very harsh, very industrialized and aggressive. Also planted underneath are very skillfully executed and trickily timed synth patterns laying under the noise, whereas that is lacking in the world of noise-techno. At times this reminds me of a cross between prior day Evil’s Toy minus the vocals and a more upbeat version of Gridlock’s dark drum n bass masterpiece “Further”. Rating: 9.
