Triple Threat

VINYL FORMAT. Following on the heels of the eclectic and wonderful Rockstopper CD, Knifehandchop makes excellent use of a unique ability, in the words of Careless Talk Saves Lives, to "joyously romp through the various electronic stylings of the last few years." The infectiousness of these four new tracks is impossible to ignore. The A-side begins with the killer "Tizzy Tixbown Riddim," which comes large with furious underground reggae bizness that sends all IDM bandwagon-jumpers running for cover. "Goin Back to Scarborough" showcases Knifehandchop's melodic best, meshing hip-hop, 2-step garage and the illegal lyrical stylings of Snoop and Dre. On the flip side, "Girlfriend" is perhaps the most creative and unique track on the record, with its unpredictably perfect mix of ADD, IDM, jungle, piano melodies and techno. "Return to Form" is destined to become one of the most revered and misunderstood tracks heard at jungle parties for years to come. Knifehandchop is a true trendsetter, always working hard to keep underground electronic music sincere and interesting. "Play this at a party and watch the place explode." --Vice UK
