#33 Feat. Hype in Drum & Bass

Midas Touch are once again plumbing the depths of their thriving local scene, calling on the prodigious talents of Belgian duo FarFlow. This time round the pair have worked their magic and conjured up the Smoke & Mirrors EP. It's four tracks that occupy a broad sonic church but are very much FarFlow tunes, with all the creativity and attention to detail that encapsulates. Part 2 really dives off the deep end into hitherto unexplored territory that really does probe the final frontier of what's possible at 170bpm. All Black even dares to sample the forbidden fruit that are some tekno flavours before dropping back into balls-out, riotous D&B. Last, but by no means least, Break Point dares to delve into some alternative, almost indie flavours in its sublime intro that gives way to gritty D&B with its fangs fully bared. Taken as individual tracks, the Smoke & Mirrors EP is very unique, a difficult feat in today's saturated scene but, taken as a sum of its parts, it is a true tour de force, and an essential for the discerning DJ out there.
