Maztek - Motherboard Burning EP

Review by Craig Sheakey

Motherboard Burning, the latest album by Maztek, is a sonic masterpiece that showcases the Italian producer's skills and versatility in the drum and bass genre. The album is a journey through different sub-genres of drum and bass, from the heavy and gritty sounds of neurofunk to the more atmospheric and melodic vibes of liquid and jungle.

The album starts off with the title track "Motherboard Burning", a high-energy neurofunk banger that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The track is filled with distorted basslines, glitchy synths, and pounding drums that will make any drum and bass fan go wild.

As the album progresses, Maztek explores different moods and textures, with tracks like "The Dirt" and "Ultrafunkular" showcasing his ability to create intricate and complex rhythms while still maintaining a sense of groove and funk.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Warpath", a collaboration with the legendary MC Verse that combines Maztek's signature dark and heavy sound with Verse's powerful and commanding vocals. The track is a perfect example of how drum and bass can be used to convey a message of resistance and rebellion.
