Extrasolar
Max D and Jackson Ryland follow-up 2021's ace self-titled full-length with another set of prismatic dancefloor constructs, twisting through dubbed-out techno, illbient, aerated jungle and future-facing East Coast club rhythms without missing a beat.
If there's something we've come to expect from Max D and Jackson Ryland, it's the palpable sense of joy that emanates from their productions. That's in bountiful supply on 'Extrasolar', a record that reminds us that dance music doesn't have to be a dry exercise in precision engineering, and can still revel in the excitement of creation itself. There's no particularly heady concept involved in the making of the record, apparently the duo wrote the tracks quickly and without fuss, sometimes improvising on the fly. And that immediacy shows; 'Reset' is a twitchy, euphoric banger that doesn't spiral the drain, it soars up to the damp ceiling with wobbly acid squelches and blissful keys.
In contrast, 'Big Deal' is a bruised illbient swamp, matching dubby, Chain Reaction-inspired fades with a beat so saturated its practically fraying at the seams. Black Rave Culture's Nativesun appears on 'We XL', assisting Dunbar and Ryland with a clattering, break-heavy technoid flux that's not quite jungle and not quite anything else either - it's got a groove all of its own. There's even a few loopy DJ tools thrown in there for the adventurous selectors out there: 'Tempopalace' is a speedy, MDMA-powered romp, and 'Sizeable Jackfruit' pairs its rolling East Coast thuds with eccentrically corrupted, heaving (bed?)squeaks. And if you're looking for more classic jungle sounds, Ryland and Dunbar have you covered with the dreamy, haphazard 'Crossfade Diving'.
