After years of genre-defining drops and speaker-wrecking mayhem, Manchester’s breakbeat veterans Backdraft return with their fresh pummeling 'Blitz EP'. Long-time torchbearers of the UK breaks scene, Paul and Karrie come out swinging with this release, proving once again that time hasn’t dulled their edge.
The title track 'Blitz' is a fusing filthy electro wobble with syncopated breaks, and that classic Backdraft attitude. There’s a riot in the rhythm section, and you’re invited. And this is a dancefloor demolition at its finest. 'Rise Up' takes a more anthemic route without losing any of the grit. Ragga-infused vocals ride atop distorted basslines and glitchy drum work - a true call to arms for bass heads and rebel ravers alike. The energy here is relentless, revolutionary, and ridiculously fun.
All in all, whether they’re melting subwoofers or fusing genres with zero regard for convention, Backdraft do it all with unmistakable flair and unfiltered passion. 'Blitz' is one more outstanding release from South West based Soundsystem Bassrock, led by their main man Paul Bassrock who's deeep inside the game for so many years.
