Anonymous black label warehouse aces from the Cub label. We can’t divulge the identities of these operators for fear of some darkside repercussions, but if we were to spill the beans, a lot of techno heads would be getting moist right now.

cub – C U 1 (UST Mix)
Anonymous black label warehouse aces from the Cub label. We can’t divulge the identities of these operators for fear of some darkside repercussions, but if we were to spill the beans, a lot of techno heads would be getting moist right now. The A-side ‘CU1’ seems to have taken the current dubstep/Funky mantra of “reduce the tempo and up the groove” to heart, creating a snaky slow 118bpm techno rhythm that slithers along like it’s caught in a strong headwind. The drag effect is accentuated by a grumbling Belgian bassline reminding of Peter van Hoesen’s ‘Trusted EP’ and dread reverb treatments making for an addictively strong cut. On the flip we get the UST remix, rubbing out the kinks and rolling with a fuller 4/4 pattern. This is a must have 12″ for any fans of the Horizontal Ground or Sandwell District labels. Highly Recommended!!!
