www.absysrec.com/absdig018.htm Our digital catalogue turns 18! Yay! And the eighteenth release comes from one of our regulars – a man who’s managed to escape pigeonholing while being able to maintain and push a very distinct sound and develop his music production skills to a great extent in the recent 10 years spent in the studio. A man whose music is often referred to as – simply speaking – proper drum and bass. And we’re talking about Poland’s Krzysztof Goliński aka Radicall, who delivers an EP entitled “Without a Word”. The 4-track compilation is yet another illustration of his faithfulness to the roots of the genre, but also showcases his further progress as a producer. You just know it’s Radicall when you listen to “Without a Word” with its regular beat pattern, clear, fruity bassline, and vocal-infused background. “Glass Heart”, featuring Lting, stuns the listener with its dynamic percussion programming, while “No One” balances gracefully on the verge of ‘atmo’ and ‘deep’. The EP closes with “Safari” – a half-stepping / semi-syncopated track with an overwhelming bassline, bound to make you nod your head. If you’re looking for no-nonsense drum & bass with a clear structure, rich use of catchy vocal bits, and a hint of upbeat melodiousness well-balanced with a solid portion of deeper sound, Radicall’s music is exactly what you want to listen to.
