Today's offering comes to us from a record label with one of the finest track records in recent memory-- Modern Love. MLZ, one part of Pendle Coven, delivers an intense, dark piece of dub techno, though one would almost hesitate to label "Dark Days" under that rubric; in reality, the sound exhibited on "Dark Days" is very much influenced by a foreboding jungle vibe that is once again coming back to the fore. With complex rhythms, deep bass, mind-twisting delay effects and haunting low-frequency washes of near-percussive quality, it is difficult to not fall for MLZ's debut solo effort upon first listening. Though not hazed and dreamy like much current dub techno, this record is sure to send some pins up your back. Hell, it may even give you nightmares...

MLZ- Dark Days

Next time?

Who knows, but soon.
