Music to bang yo ass to. Quite versatile record as it incorporates nearly every genre relative to dnb (dnb itself, neurofunk, electro house, brostep, etc.), as well as other electronic subgenres (wonky, grime, funky house, breakbeat among others). It's this variety that allows this album to stand out both from the crowd and from their other releases.

Noisia’s first proper LP is a shining example of everything good that can happen when a groundbreaking trio mashes all their influences together and produces something truly original. Split the Atom has it all: breaks, electro, drum n bass, funk, house, et cetera. It’s a mishmash of styles that never seems like it’s about to collapse – the Dutch group have collected everything they admire about electronica and make it their own. Noisia are not afraid to take some risks, and Split the Atom promises to be the first in a long line of relentless, heart-stopping party starters.

Overall, track sound and production is downright amazing. Tracks like Machine Gun, Shellshock, and Alpha Centauri will have your head bobbing and your legs pumping for hours on end. My only complaint is that some of the house influenced tracks do get a bit boring. It takes a bit more for us D&B heads to respect house music

Noisia have been sending shock waves through dancefloors and nightclubs ever since their emergence in 2003, each release only building on their explosive and dynamic approach to neurofunk, giving drum & bass a much needed kick in the pants at every turn. Be it when they turn their subsonic bass laden approach to more friendlier fare like house and breaks, or stay true to their d & b origins, their blitzkrieg-like attack on the nightclubs of the world commands attention. An LP long in the making and heavy in anticipation, Split The Atom is nothing short of being one of the grandest and diverse electronic releases of the year. Mixing in all of their varying styles with bold efficiency, the album cycles through ruthless drum & bass pummel on 'Shellshock', blurs the identity of breaks with the off-kilter 'Alpha Centauri' (a track jaw dropping in its example of how far sound can be bent and broken); it cranks up the the temperature on electro house's already burning condition with 'Red Heat', and breathes life into the old school vibes of yesteryear with 'My World'. The bass is almost otherworldly, so dense and thick, the reverb hitting harder than a ton of bricks. Wisely though, Noisia sacrifice nothing for potential commercial appeal as their ruthless 'Stigma' returns in all its glory, and 'Machine Gun' detonates its catchy hooks in a merciless cloud of murky wobble. The three headed monster that is Noisia have crafted the ultimate eye-opener of the year and secured their place at the top of the pile, a position that they are going to be holding onto for years to come.
