The ‘Time Splitter’ EP marks the fifth chapter of B:Thorough’s avant-garde Textured imprint, following the introspective ‘(Don’t) Luv Me’ EP released in 2023. This eagerly awaited instalment sees B:Thorough reunite with fellow Coyote Records alum, Slick, for a project bursting with originality and dynamic production.

Having connected online through Soundcloud, B:Thorough and Slick began collaborating after an encounter on East London’s Subtle Radio. The pair’s creative synergy first captured attention with their haunting track “Double Up,” released on French Tabloid’s ‘VA 001’ compilation in March 2023 alongside heavyweights Benny Ill and Blackdown.

The title track ‘Time Splitter’ showcases the pair’s signature styles, combining Slick’s precise rhythmic architecture with B:Thorough’s piercing synth arrangement. With its dynamic three-part structure, ‘Time Splitter’ takes listeners on a thrilling sonic journey, each section injecting a new vitality.

Revolutions

'Tearing Now', or 'Tearing Up' at the masterful combination of Grime & Electro displayed here on the title track? Infectious bass-arpeggios sit above thumping subs, while a classy arrangement which works its way through a classic MC rant to an unexpected culmination in an almost Bingerian string outro satisfies both the casual listener and the RWD Forum nerd.

On 'Airplane', Hiss cunningly uses sounds and samples that sound a bit like aeroplanes. We could end the blurb here, such is level of the genius on display, but then we wouldn't mention the almost Gqom-esque tension built through the insistent bass power, or the way pulling the first clap forward hints at Garage, without flying too far from the Electro runway operating from Grime airport. I'll stop now.

"With the subsequent, planet-sized addition in its musical orbit, Sentry welcomes another critically acclaimed bass music veteran to its coveted artist roster. SP:MC, a multi-faceted producer and vocalist, who cemented his status as a highly talented producer with outstanding releases through Tempa and System among others. Apart from his long-standing residency for the legendary Fabric night club, he's a regular on the microphone for some of the world's most distinguished Drum & Bass and Dubstep events, living and breathing sound system culture. For the eleventh release of Youngsta's imprint, SP:MC takes us all back into a golden age, captivating the charm of old school sonics with riveting minimalism and skank-inducing swing, and extending the iconic flavours of 2-Step, Garage and Breaks into the 21st century - clocking in at 135 BPM.

Conveying hazy and tape-ridden notions, 'Vintage' sets us off on a groove-inducing flow with tempered chord,  lush echoes, and intimate vocal fragments.  Murderous break-beat rhythms are laid out with unequivocal finesse as the UK-based prodigy delivers heritage sounds in contemporary attire. Classic foley samples interweaved with modern sound design - engineered for the heads. 'Slugfest' commands a more aggressive tone, introducing itself with slick, hallowed percussion and haunting ambiance. With the doomsday bassline promptly kicking in, a super-charged groove armada unfolds - heavyweight business. Hypnotic drums hook into your motor cortex as every last cell of your body intermingles with the vibrant low-frequency surges, blasting from the sound system. Scrupulously switching up the push-and-pull dynamics throughout the arrangement, every sound component working at full capacity and in a supremely refined style. Bass music connoisseurs all over, rejoice! These breaks are for you."
