Strike A Pose vinyl

Rising talent Beneath follows serious plate action for Tectonic and Keysound with the triple hitting EP of "Anti-Masonic ritual music" for Niche 'n' Bump. Run by one third of London club Wifey, Niche 'n' Bump launched in style last year with a 12" from Spatial and tapping up Beneath demonstrates the label remains on point as ever. By the sound of it, lead track "Strike A Pose" is less likely to be a Madonna reference, more a nod to MC Trim, focusing on a rather incendiary blend of 90's bleep rave, subtly rippling bass and the producer's trademark snaking percussion. As the Niche 'n' Bump press release succinctly states "this track is recommended for mixing by skilled DJs". Unlike the recent Pev and Hodge track of the (nearly) same name, "Bellz" has bell tones in abundance and also gets a rather fine refix from Swing Ting.
