Kowton - She Don't Jack - Idle Hands 005

a. She Don't Jack
b. Drunk On Sunday

"On this one 'She Don't Jack' sticks with the sub-120bpm pace, furnishing his Bristol House with Terminator synth gazes, needly hi-hats and a beautifully restrained, offset bassline keeping his dark funk tucked firmly in the pocket. Staying minimal and menacing but with an acute dose of rudeness 'Drunk On A Sunday' sounds like Sleeparchive just got horny and decided to swing his hips for a change, inflating a fat-assed subbass under clinically crisp percussion and lights-out synth wipes."

Headhunter - Lost Prophet - Idle Hands 004

A1 - Lost Prophet
B1 - Chasing Dragons

"Fresh outta Bristol's Rooted Records hub, Headhunter lays down the latest Idle Hands 12". He appears to be on a Soca-Funky/Dubstep mission with both tracks. This works out best on the smartly poised 'Lost Prophet', syncing galloping drums with lung-collapsing subs before a majestic techno synthline comes in to remind us who we're listening to. On the flip 'Chasing Dragons' goes harder with a bulked-up drum palette compatible with more techno-inspired Funky, Juke and Dubstep tracks." Boomkat
