Viral-Mental Recordings delivers a mammoth, junglistic, treat to save everyone from all of this Festive mayhem. Label regular, and purveyor of the finest rough and rugged sounds, Hektic, drops his massive, seven track heavy 'Roll Out' mini-album onto the public's innocent ears to ensure this is gonna be a "RUDE" X-Mas!!!

We are first introduced to the steppin' jungle sounds of 'Feel It', which combines head-nodding, 'Think' break drum hits layered with amen edits with a deep buzzing bassline peppered with fragments of vintage movie dialogue. Future rude-bwoy anthem, 'Original Badman' drops gruff, ragga vox over a rolling amen and heavyweight, bass pulses before the EP merges into the gangsta rap flavoured title track, the menace fueled 'Roll Out'. A track which perfectly encapsulates the essence of classic '96 era jump up jungle tracks.

The cheeky Montell Jordan pilfering 'This Is How' wraps an instantly recognisable R&B sample around an infectiously catchy, jungle dub-skank riddim combined with filthy, droning bass notes that'll get your speakers shaking. Up next we are taken back to the deep, dark jungle with my personal favourite track from the collection, 'Take You Back'. A moody jungle stepper, propelled by an expertly looped vocal sample that immediately sticks in your brain.

The ragga vibes return with the dubwise 'Burn Dem' which fuses reverberating, Rastafari vocals and looped, reggae, guitar licks with an organic 2-step break pattern. The EP is drawn to a close by the anthemic, statement of intent track, 'Underground Sound' which gives a shout out 'the UK sound of the underground' over a clockwork break pattern and tension steeped, descending synth notes to declare the jungle scenes rightful place in anti-mainstream, urban culture.

Get your hands on Hektic's 'Roll Out' EP now. It's 100% guaranteed banish any traces of Cliff Richard/X-Factor style schmaltz from your eardrums!!!
