Sizzling EP of previously unreleased archive
tracks from one of UK dance music's most
influential outfits, the mighty Horsepower
Productions. As you all surely know by now, In
their inspired toughening and teching out of UK
Garage, Horsepower effectively brought dubstep
into being. In recent years they've favoured a
pretty sludgy dubstep sound of their own, but
this 12" captures the swinging 2-step energy of
their classic period: the albums In Fine Style
and To The Rescue and surrounding killer 12"s.
'Boogaloo' sums up everything that made Benny
Ill's crew top boys back then - a spruce and
spry garage roller, but with the tempo brought
down a tad and ragga accents added for the
smokers. 'Landslide Remix' is taut steppers'
techno as only Horsepower can do it, all
pinched BC chords and ceaseless sub-low wump
(like a more minimal take on 'Classic Deluxe').
The original of 'What We Do', already seminal
in the remixed version that came out in 2001,
sounds incredible, with some Ghost-style,
hi-speed garage flavour, that irresistible diva
loop and an arsenal of brain-boxing FX.
'Midnight Tease (Instrumental)' sees us out on
a nicely lubricated breakstep tip - to listen
to it is to see precisely how hardcore and
jungle begat garage. A brilliant and worthwhile
12" then, historically interesting but more
importantly just the sound of Horsepower at
their deadly, stealthy best.
