Bleep

Three years since he shocked us with his Iron Cages debut, Rizzla tears up the scene once again with his debut album Adepta, released via Fade To Mind.

While it seems commonplace now for contemporary "club" units to ratchet up records that show a keen interest for weirding it up pon the 'floor, Rizzla's Adepta seemingly goes the other way entirely. This is music aimed squarely at DJ playability but seemingly coming from the mind of an artist who is trying to free himself from the iron cage of avant-garde production that makes his music such a powerful force. The results are some seriously locked on and fully loaded tracks that mix the most claustrophobic Baltimore swagger with some proper fractured footwork and cracking under the sheer pressure of the basslines 2 step G-funk (and we mean proper G stuff). Slipping out with little fanfare, this really is one of those records "for those who know". Trust us and check this urgently, as you will be kicking yourself once they are gone. Tipped for days, just act quick...
