After dropping a sweet EP on Naked Lunch, bright young thing from Toronto Kevin McPhee takes to Bristol's admirable Idle Hands imprint. 'Sleep' is a choppy, textured dubstep-house cut with UKG type vocal flexes, 'House 44' a crunchy, fuzzed-over Kassem Mosse style downbeat jam. Sick tunes!

Sci-fi slo-mo bass transmissions from Bristol's Kowton surface on the shadowy Idle Hands label. Clocking in at 115 bpm, 'Basic Music Knowledge' upends UK bass music conventions in 2010. 'Hunger' is on a similarly spacious tip that recalls visions of ominous warehouse spaces and darkened hallways.
