Mumzie’s back on it after a long hiatus, tonking out a neuro D&B/hard house hybrid and its jazzier counterpoint in a pounding, then weightless, style for his eponymous "no frills" label.
Both sides speak directly to Mumdance’s decades of skin in the game, from running a D&B night in Brighton at the height of the neuro era, to his long-running residency as DJ at Vice Magazine’s Old Blue Last nights, and mutations of grime, techno, electro and hardcore in pre-pandemic times.
In ‘Artificial Intelligence’ we hear all his inspirations on parade, outlining links between Chicago house and its bastard UK offspring hard house, thru to early 8-bar grime, snarling D&B and happy hardcore in a non-nonsense boot to the arse. ‘Jazz Excursion’ however makes his experimental leanings clearer, nodding to Peshay and Adam F’s mid-‘90s D&B jazz via weightless eski grime and the sort of shearing sound design heard on his work with Logos & Shapednoise in The Sprawl.
