Bleep

One of the greatest producers in the current resurgence of Jungle and Drum & Bass, Tim Reaper is riding high on the crest of the scene's new wave. Carefully studying the past to push the scene forward.

Following a grip of stellar releases for the likes of Lobster Theremin, the originals Blu Mar Ten Music and fellow new Junglist Sherelle's Hooversound, Tim Reaper joins the Ryoko familia with a Wackie's infected re-stepper. On the first untitled cut we find Tim Reaper's signature chopped breaks under ragga vocal samples. On the B side we're welcomed by a weightless, floating halftime rhythm before going under the knife - making us think of a mythical situation where we can wonder what might have been if Rhythm & Sound had turned their attentions to hyper spliced breakbeats at 160bpm instead.

Finding a new home on the illusive Ryoko imprint, one of London's most talented producers strikes again.
