Fracture (2) – Hype Tracks EP

Fracture has certainly been pushing DnB/Juke/Dubstep sounds to a god-like zenith the past decade, where his trendsetting innovations in electronic dance music set the bar for others to aspire towards and emulate. While I respect all of his work, I personally gravitate towards his drumfunk, breakbeat-heavy DnB such as the releases on Outsider, Offshore, 13Music, and Scientific Wax. It seems almost blasphemous to utter, but his Astrophonica releases are hit-n-miss in regards to actually being mixed into my DJ sets, but this Exit EP is insanely good! All 4 tracks cut like a scalpel, with the production ultra-tight and having the proper synthesis of beard-stroking headphone listening and hands-in-the-air dancefloor booty shaking. Exit continues to push boundaries, and I personally find this to be one of their overall best releases. And as a reference, all tracks are 170 BPM, except "Acid Claps" which is 160.

Big EP. Definitely Fracture vibes and showing true diversity with individuality as always! Exit leads the way. Nice 180g weight plate for the purists!
