RA Review

Ikonika - Please/Simulacrum

on Hyperdub

'Please' and 'Simulacrum' are brilliant. Ikonika's debut release recalls early Warp bleep and beats, but with the kind of fluid and dynamic rhythm changes that make you remember why dubstep (if that's the right word for it now) can be so exciting.

I fully agree...Please is fantastic and definitely reminds me of early Warp material.

Vaccine's staff is, for lack of a better work, flaccid. Totally agree with this review-nice to see more attention paid to melody and structure than bass pressure. Definitely one of my fave releases so far this year, dupstep and otherwise.
