Blakk Rainbow
Ruffhouse’s Karim Maas does worm-charming techno and abstract D’n’B night terrors on his killer 2nd 12” following the crooked trip hop of his recent collab with Pessimist.
Emerging as a new overlord of UK bass undercurrents with his ‘Old World Disorder’ EP in 2018, Karim Maas has come to represent a very fine strain of negative energy carried over from late ‘90s D&B, techno and dark ambient noise.
Under a title that nods to Panos Cosmatos’ modern sci-fi classic as much as his noirish club lust, the ‘Blakk Rainbow’ EP finds Karim edging ever closer to a consolidation of the crucial cinematic and dancefloor aspects of his style. The thousand yard stare drones and gut-rumble rolige of ‘Beyond The Blakk Rainbow’ perfectly resonates feel of the eponymous 2010 film, while ‘Trama Doll’ starts out sounding like a Source Direct intro but surpasses any bruk out urges in its slithering, viscous flow and mist of seething noise. ‘Saturn Return’ follows with a steeply enigmatic mix of Indian classical vocal perfusing pendulous bass and drums that resemble a desiccated Regis production, and ‘Know Your Enemy’ again highlights his keen sound design skills with a frighteningly immersive intro that gives way to a shuddering techno undertow that splits the difference between CUB and Fishermen.
