3.5 greatTheManMachine | September 21st 16

The title's self-questioning has apparently been answered with the unveiling of a seven-piece electronic supergroup who are particularly proficient in the domain of drum&bass; so when it feels jumbled perhaps therein lies a reason, but when they customarily cook up quality compositions that are dynamic+frantic+exploratory it comes as no surprise and everything's gonna be alright. Pop-ups spots from thick-Brit-accented MCs are accommodated awesomely, it generally encourages bustin' a move (albeit quite the accelerated bustin') yet the spacier dabbles are worthy as well, plus heavy and/or wacky intricacy kinda never ceases. As anticipated from the introductory robot-in-sunglasses funk and pitched-down catchphrases, they undoubtedly tote a knack for tongue-in-cheek muck-ups of the tilts toward trite: ominous synth hums and ghastly gunshots segueing into a munchkin's "get ya hands up", echo chambers/space launchings/a dizzying 500 mph beat saving "Heartbreaker" from becoming too legit, etc.
