By far his best effort, mixture of deep dubstep with his previously meticulous minimalistic glitch effort. Unlike his sophomore effort, which grinded away against his abrasive sound and lurid sampling for a complex house record, with mixed results. Black Boulder does no such thing and with its exceptional production and smooth guest vocals make his most accessible work to date. It'll be interesting to see where he goes from here; his minimalistic glitch / tech aspirations are slightly quelled beneath a 2-step garage / dubstep foreground, it seems Phon.o enjoys trying different avenues for the betterment of us all.
