▌ █▌ With his second release on Violence, Gridlok tears deep into ▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ a vein of molten funk, burnishing his trademark darkness with ▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ a veneer of white hot brightness. The conflagration begins ▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ with the blistering æHeatwaveÆ This incendiary slab of funk ▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ has been igniting dance floors on both sides of the Atlantic, ▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ with Andy C, Hype, Zinc and Bryan Gee reaching for it in just ▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ about every recent set. Its a delirious blend of funked - up ▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ madness, forged out of equal parts singed film score and ▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ synthetic fire. ItÆs huge unapologetically lethal, and destined▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ to scorch the earth beneath the dance floor. As the name ▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ suggests, æthe RipperÆ is every bit as heavy as the A-side. ▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ Gridlok concentrates the hyperkinetic energy of æHeatwaveÆ into▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ a throbbing track thatÆs pure, dizzying bounce. Amens ride over▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ the top of a peeling bass line while the subs hammer away ▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ beneath them. Pause for an unexpected half tempo break, then ▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ wind up again for a second serving, carving fresh off the wax. ▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ Despite the heavy, dark undertones, the tune remains playful, ▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ smiling rather than grimacing as it grabs you ever tighter and ▐█ ▐
▌ █▌ rives its final point home. ▐█ ▐
