14 DOWN THE DIP

TRACKLIST A1. 14 Down The Dip A2. Ruff Enuff Stuff B1. On A Mission B2. On A Mission (Nova Cheq Remix) INFO RAVETRX is back on SHERELLE & NAINA™s Hooversound imprint, and it™s a real headturner. If the UK artist™s first contribution to the label was unapologetically ˜90s-facing, ˜14 Down The Dip™ is practically legging it back into a muddy field somewhere along the UK™s growing network of motorways. One thing™s for surežwe™re gonna be here all night. RAVETRX sets the stage with sounds of a single airhorn and distant crowd before launching into a pounding groove. The title track snapshots a rave well underway: fresh off the M1 and checking out the usual suspects: speedfreaks stepping to white-noise kicks, teens screwfacing to rascally rave synths, and someone swaying wide-eyed to those happy hardcore piano lines. ˜Ruff Enuff Stuff™ goes out to the system heads, rolling the EP into jungle tekno via Patois vocals, crisp breaks and subs. But don™t be fooled by these warmer frequenciesžon the flip, RAVETRX jumps back into rave mayhem with ˜On A Mission™, amens going head to head with a snarling bassline. And just when you thought it couldn™t get any heavier, Hooversound label-mate Nova Cheq finishes up the EP with a merciless gabber rework of ˜On A Mission™, sizzling with twitchy acid that™ll speak to the restless and underslept. An essential cop for the hardcore junglists out there!
