Sounds Like: "SPUEK
IIZO/Rice Drop/Who's To Blame - DPR.BURIAL-APPROVED OUT-THERE BRILLIANCEGarage originator Noodles' DPR label coninues its resurgence with countless new and old tracks at dpr.ithinkmusic.com. Our favourite is this EP by artist and filmmaker Nigel 'Spuek' Bennett, whose tracks are hard as nails without ever resorting to 'darkside' cliches, and whose juddering drum patterns are the most original we've heard in ages. Burial is said to be a fan, and so are we."Joe Muggs, Mixmag, October 2008
