Why do we like this?
More and more attention is being given to jungle and drum and bass, which have laid largely dormant for a while now.

While artists like Machinedrum and Om Unit are coming at the genre from an electronic angle, Sacramento-based producer Lee Bannon is twisting it with the strange shapes of hip-hop.

XLR8R was a fan, describing it as:

"A rough-around-the-edges slice of brooding, bass-infused beat work in which solemn piano notes are placed next to a ceaseless barrage of heavy, drum & bass-indebted rhythms. It's hard to tell if Bannon is trying to get this track to lift off or is deliberately making it crash down, but either way, the California producer sounds like he's not interested in keeping his tunes earthbound."


Ninja Tune will release Bannon's debut Alternate / Endings on December 9, but if you can't wait until then, there is a free download of this available on SoundCloud.
