Ikeaboy Metanoia (Volume 1)

This driving electro release from ikeaboy also contains remixes by Sir Real [KracktroniK] and Warren Daly [Invisible Agent]. DJ MAG - JUNE 2007 Following Decal's EP earlier this year on Invisible Agent, Ikeaboy drops an EP that covers underground electro's many sounds. Apart from the ambient intro 'flashdead', there's the tight, bleepy breaks of 'Palletscrap' and the Detroit chords of 'Bypass Naas Bass'. Ikeaboy also has a fondness for craniun-splitting basslines and the malevolent, lunging bass of 'Yellow Metal', as well as Warren Daly's ominous version of the same track, is the stuff that the worst nightmares are made of.
