Hardcore Rubble - Tim Reaper (Sneaker Social Club)

 

Title: Hardcore & Rubble

Artist: Tim Reaper

Label: Sneaker Social Club

Cat Number: SNKR033

Genre: Hardcore


1: Outer Realms

2: Heavy Duty

3: Agony Tonight

4: Bulletproof


The tunes put out by Sneaker Social Club inhabit more than one parallel world. And this release from Tim Reaper is the soundtrack to the voyage through a black hole. ‘Outer Realms’ is frenetic drum and bass which is elevated from ordinariness by the sheer amount of activity within its grooves. It’s deep, Kuyper Belt madness. ‘Heavy Duty’ initially feels like the score for a fever dream, until it bursts out all guns blazing. ‘Agony Tonight’ provides some much needed levity in the form of an animated hardcore/dancehall rave up, while ‘Bulletproof’ manifests the skittish, cartoon side of hardcore underpinned with multiple low end frequencies. It’s a madly imaginative release that fires on all fronts.
