drum n bass album: Dogs On Acid - Break - Symmetry LP

Press Release: After working his way to the very top of the game, Break has managed to become one of D&B’s most in-demand DJs and producers, on entirely his own terms. Establishing an inimitable sound over the last couple of years through his seemingly endless output of singles and remixes, Break’s stripped back, highly rhythmic and technically unrivalled productions have become a necessary component in every good DJ’s sets. However, what we have heard from Break in that time represents only a fraction of the man and his talents, and on ‘Symmetry’ we get to see exactly what he is capable of...

Directly or undirectly, seriously or unseriously, I would guess at least a great bunch of you AGM readers have heard of Kim Sølve before. Apart from visually working with cutting-edge bands from all genres, the man has also given birth, over the years, to a vividly strong body of musical work. Ambient, experimental, electronica, neo-industrial, disharmonic metal, ballet composition - you name it, you got it. At first my intention was to specifically cover his more metal parkways, but you can't limit such a diverse artist to one side of the coin. Swarms and Pronounced "sex", for example, are two of his bands which recently got released world-wide, but so much more is brewing at night as we speak. So please do follow our steps, and let's see what you'll find out among these unreal worlds.
