Loxy & Keaton's label represents the near 'X-Tinct' sound of true D&B. Loxy and Munk take smash X side to bits, with the brooding 'Jah Meditation' A harmonious cocktail of mysterious ambience, energising beats and bassline menace. Matt U & ICR freak out on side Y. Paranoid intensity 'Totem' is pure darkness dancefloor D&B at its best. Lurking bass reverberation build a sense of dread as they roll over acid bleeps and melodic mist.

info:
Flatline Audio, the USA's premiere hard and heavy D&B label is back with another stomping release. This one comes courtesy of ICR and the lead track 'Back 2 Front' mixes a Hip Hop swagger with enough harmonic discordance to seriously upset your sense of balance. 'Razor Blade Runner' on the flip is equally as disturbing, with esoteric sounds blending with a rumbling bassline and stepping drums to create another slick ear grinder.
