First music I've bought in absolutely ages- King Cannibal's Virgo and Call Me Mr Cold Blooded.
On the Virgo single the title track is, by Cannibal's standards pretty light and, dare I say it, bouncy. Murder Us, the B-side, is darker and more menacing by contrast. I actually like the lighter tone of Virgo, not what I was expecting but it works well.
Call Me Mr Cold Blooded (and brilliant B-side A Hundred Eyes Closed) is in a similar vein to the classic Arigami Style- like a horror movie for your ears. I don't know what specific genre of drum and bass you'd file this stuff under but the best way I can think of describing it is as the electronic equivalent of really dark heavy metal, Ministry or Nine Inch Nails gone jungle.
Looking forward to the coming release- S0...Embrace The Minimum out on August 16th.
Check out King Cannibal's MySpace page to have a listen to his tunes.
One last thing- someone should really hire this guy to score the soundtrack to a really scary horror movie, and make it twice as frightening.
