Dj Earl's Philthtrax release, 001, presents the Teklife sound in a whole new format. The EP opens with "Now Breakk", a track that combines the rhythmic sophistication of footwork and blends it with heavy D&B percussion. Next, we slow down with "Moodrinng", featuring Dj Earl andHeavee D, a halftime collaboration brimming with synth leads and sparkling textures.

Finally, we look at Beardus of St. Petersburg Russia with his funky re-edit of "Now Breakk." He cleverly chops the original chord melody,separating itwith rolling snares, tom breakdowns and a catchy synth solopresenting yet another dimension of the footwork genre.
