Limbertimbre, aka southern california 's carl bradshaw, should be no stranger by now to anyone keeping an eye on the cutting edge of electro or breaks. his 2005 debut 12” on pretension – ‘one big bit' (pt003) received worldwide plaudits from the electro/breaks community for it's forward-thinking edit-heavy but dancefloor-friendly sound. this was followed by a brace of suitably mind-bending contributions to the highly respected ‘over the counter culture' series on jean-paul bondy's / wee dj's spacebar sentiments label. for his second solo single limbertimbre returns to pretension with two brand new tracks that push his sound even further into the dark and uncertain future of dance music. this is heavy, glitchy, mean electronic music designed for dancefloors with excessive wattage and ample woofer diameters! by way of keeping you on your toes, justin maxwell (palette, volsoc, pretension) delivers a delightfully heavy interpretation of ‘aaba', twisting it into a hypnotically pumping flutter of delay lines that would give most current techno producers a run for their money. whether your allegiance lies with the surgeons, hawtins or audions of this world this is techno that should be in any forward-thinking djs record box.
