4.0 out of 5 stars badass, November 2, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Dillinja Presents Cybotron (Audio CD)

No, this album doesnt make me melt as much as Dillinjas old work, e.g. Ghost Stories, You Don't Know (remix), Deadly Deep Subs, or Deeper Love - but its still damn good.

While it may be reasonably stylistically generic, its the style that Dillinja himself invented. Pop vocals and sweet sounding synths get utterly pummeled by banging breaks and just the filthiest of filthy basslines. Its like the most hardcore sounding r'n'b ever made. :)

Production-wise its just nuts, noone touches this mans sound, hes the king of *angry bass* as far as I'm concerned. The tracks alternate between hard, and very-hard - there isn't a huge stylistic range of material here, but theres many killer killer tracks.

And I can't overstate just how *rude* sounding it is... filthy filthy FILTHY. My god...

I agree with views such as those of "Nick (Sydney, NSW Australia)":

I believe that Dillinja is an integral part of Drum & Bass's progression to the genre's well-deserved popularity. I certainly enjoy the music greatly.

I bought 'Cybotron' after reading around the Net, that this was a ground-breaking and uncompromising piece of Drum & Bass art. However, my personal preference is for less vocals (much less) and for more driving, melodic and all-but unrelenting music!

So, after many months of wishing to experience the "Valve sound", filled with expectations of dark, apparently "filthy" music, I was somewhat disappointed by the overtly vocal-based songs.

Lesson learned: definitely find samples of the music before buying.
