These are not my words but I fully agree with them:
Carlos "S.P.Y" Lima made his name by putting a decidedly positive
spin on drum & bass, filling his 2012 debut album What The Future
Holds with string-laden, post-liquid tracks that fused floor-filling
rhythms with a breezy, carnival-friendly musicality. On this belated
follow-up, the Brazilian producer flips the script, delivering a murkier
- if no less beautifully produced - set filled with darker, moodier
moments. Given his way with mood and rhythm, it's unsurprising to find
that Back To Basics Volume 1 hits home hard. Whether laying down and
tech-tinged late night roller Brooklyn (Dub), Jelly Belly, a
discordant freak-out Riding The Void or an Inner City Life style
vocal groover Dusty Fingers, featuring Diane Charlemagne), Lima is at
the top of his game.
