'Kanji Kinetic: Drumstep & Mutant Bass Vol 2' is the second instalment of this huge Drumstep and Mutant Bass release on Monster Sounds! Kanji Kinetic is a guy who has managed to sculpt his own take on the 140 BPM mash-up game. This power-driven pack by Kanji is set to blow you away with its superbly produced drum loops, dirty wobble basslines and melodic synths.
His first foray into the world of bass and beats came back in 2008 when his debut release was put out by Rag & Bone Records. This saw him grab the attention of Drop The Lime, Starkey, Taz Buckfaster, Tayo, Mary Anne Hobbs, B Rich, Chrissy Murderbot, Akira Kiteshi, Reso and DZ with its fresh, energetic mix of Bassline, Techno, Dubstep and Chiptune influences.
Continuing to evolve his sound with a wide range of releases and remixes, Kanji's brutal remix of 16Bit's Dubstep anti-anthem, 'Chainsaw Calligraphy' brought a new wave of fans into the Mutant Bass sound, along with further remixes for Figure, Roisin Murphy, Mustard Pimp & Alec Empire, Kid606, Rico Tubbs, Si Begg, Drop The Lime, Acid Jacks, Jeuce, Egyptrixx, Mikix The Cat, Temper D and Blackmass Plastics! Not a bad portfolio for such a young guy with such a focused vision.
This pack has mixed tempos of 140 to 175, spot on for Dubstep and Drum and Bass productions. If you simply want to add texture or a bit of aggy wobble to your productions, then this is the pack for you.
