DMX Krew - Computor Heart

beatport
‘Synthesiser music for nightclubs’. That’s all that the press release for DMX Krew’s new EP Computor Heart has to say on the matter. It’s not wrong, you know – the quartet of tunes here are primo machine-made tools from Ed DMX. Computor Heart kicks off with its title track, a hugely pleasing bit of squelch-funk. Up next is the hyperspeed ‘Inigos Groove’, all Drexciyan drums and cyberpunk bass. ‘Upgrade Path’ is a real mish-mash, conflating the sound of ‘Computor Heart’ and ‘Inigos Groove’ before adding some bassline wubs and a grime lead line. Closing cut ‘Infinity Drive’ keeps the low-slung bass while throwing in a percussion-heavy shuffle and Detroit-inspired chords.
