New Hyperdub releases are always very welcome around these parts, and '9 Samurai/backward' is no exception. Maintaining the impossibly high standards set by previous releases from the Bug and soon to be legendary Burial, label linchpin Kode 9 reverts to the format reserved for his own alchemical productions. This time round we get the anthemic, wrecked masterpiece 'backward' - an oddly bouncy yet sombre cut riding a metronomic cymbal synched with an effortless halfstep skanking pattern laying the foundation for Spaceape's endgame lyricism, minimal flexing business. How good?! On the flip '9 samurai' delivers one of those tracks that could have only come from the mind of hyperdub, a marching dirge for a 5am mooch in Brixton, Spaceape having finished a burning bowl of Jah-blessed and ranting on some dread philosophy tip. Darkside riddems for late night rizla replenishment - Mighty record.
