Breakwith.me review:

WORDS BY @hcurtoys www.instagram.com/hcurtoys

​Internet friend and head of the French Tabloid label Polofayot reached out with the latest from their cavernous archives. Polofayot, a name somewhat seminal in the pursuit of underground electronics, started as a Youtube channel and Soundcloud dedicated to the sharing of the darkest corners and lost hard drives of bedroom producers the world over. Label mainstays LU6IFER and VOOR, both with discographies of weightless piratical grime instrumentals, have joined hands and created something that feels fresh and murky.

Far away from the grime that was outlawed from public performance and played on bandit radio stations in the early noughties, both LU6IFER and VOOR are invigorated by the multifarious experience of the internet and online personas. Grime is no longer a singular genre but has dissolved back to its original noun-status, describing ambience tinged by dirt, soot, dust, smog, mud, and mire. Ambient tracks are both of these producers’ go-to - the future of this music feels weightless, transcendent, perfectly converging with their online disembodiment. French Tabloid features many releases that experiment with singular moments of an old-school grime sound, taking the icy FM synths and exploding them. Grime is no longer serving the DJ and MC but instead is travelling further and further into sonic oblivion.

VOOR’s Digital Mist seems to hit the nail on the head: viscous droplets splatter over crisp percs and pulsing subs, it’s as if you’re able to step inside the music they’re inspired by and look around at its insides. Ominous and brooding but somehow soft and supple. On VOOR’s remix of LU6IFER’s Vacant you can hear idiosyncratic Drill samples followed by silenced gun shots as the bass glides into your midriff… baow.

Breakwith.me recommends LU6IFER, VOOR – LXV.
