Gun Finger vinyl

Break and Total Science first worked together back in 2019, delivering the well-received 'Dog's Dinner'. Here they re-ignite their cross-generational production partnership with a fine two-tracker, which also marks the debut of their new jointly owned label, Triii Audio. Lead cut 'Gunfinger' is particularly potent, with the trio doffing a cap to drum & bass's soundsystem culture roots. The track not only contains pitched-down sections of sampled reggae grooves, but also ragga-jungle era vocal samples, crunchy and retro-futurist breakbeats, and bass so warped and gnarly it may be capable of blowing speaker stacks. Flipside 'Acquiesce' is a moody and punchy affair, with soundman bleeps, echoing vocal snippets, rasping rave noises and creepy chords rising above foreboding bass and blistering beats.
