Intermix #3.2: Strict Face (Side B)

Little to nothing happened in this part of the world; even the tiniest disruption or the most trivial situation became the talk of the village. You couldn't trust people not to talk, entertainment and gossip were thin on the ground, they needed something to keep their minds busy. Aside from the cluster of shops and the village hall, a railway track slithered through the centre; each route took you to bustling towns and cities which felt a world away from their reality. But it represented a path to somewhere else; an option to explore new places, meet new people and see new things, if they wanted to that is.

PROGRAMM_LDN are back with another two-tracker of sound-system influenced electronics, this time from Swedish producer and Terrorhythm alumni Mod Sens. Taking a collaborative approach to the EP, label bosses Will and Julian helped steer the producer into new musical realms, where he blends elements of techno, UKG and dubstep. The record is a personal journey inspired by a sense 0f growing and advancing which, in relation to the sonics on the two tracks, Mod Sens describes as 'moving somewhere and progressing'  which is 'really what brings the single and EP together.'

Gilles Renneson - Kid Reflex

Following a stellar run of jungle and breakbeat-oriented releases including the foundational Foul Play Origins set and the visionary proto-retro styles of X-Altera, Sneaker Social Club welcome a true master of drum science. 

As Paradox and Alaska, Dev Pandya has been setting standards and breaking new ground in breakbeat hardcore, jungle and drum & bass since the dawn of the culture. He was right there at the start of Moving Shadow, has graced seminal labels like Reinforced, Good Looking and Metalheadz and steered his own Paradox Music, Esoteric and Arctic Music as vessels for a huge body of work. Still toting his Amiga for live gigs and putting out bonus 12”s loaded with samples for producers, Pandya’s passionate commitment to the culture is evident in everything he does. Nowhere does that shine through more than in his needlepoint flair for break editing and drum programming – the calling card of the Paradox sound. 

It’s a huge honour to host two original Paradox tracks on Sneaker. We’re treated to full-fat Paradox percussion alchemy on “Octa4” as he teases out the intensity around a salvo of dancehall toasting samples, trickling each progressive layer of rhythm into the mix with the patience and poise of a true master. “Proceed” leans on dub techno atmospherics and a taut funk break that occasionally cuts loose into a ride-splashing fill, but once again the message here is one of heads-down restraint. Across both tracks the emphasis is on the fine print – each composed drum hit and subtle shift of FX – while riding deep in a masterfully constructed groove. Proof, if ever it were needed, why Pandya is the king of understated D&B excellence.
