Eleven Across the Low End

Astronomic — "Water falls" opens the deep-140 side with the sub in front and plenty of room around it. TIME WZRD — "Me N You" and SL33PY — "TUG" stay in that restrained pocket, where negative space carries as much force as the drums. Eternol — "Invasion" rounds out the section with a free download at the source.

The faster records keep the same center of gravity. DAVINXI — "Elevia" rolls deep and clean, with in:sane — "You're Not There" holding the dubwise line beside it.

Jon Cass — "GOT2GO" brings the swung two-step edge where UK garage and 140 meet. mai — "balance." and K.L.O — "Selotape" push outward through detailed bass design that deserves the headphones turned up.

For the wider roll, CliqClaq — "Velocity" and Dmtree — "Corruption" open the shape without losing the low end.

Eleven records, several tempos, one continuous line through the bass—and no dead weight.
