[Ed Rush & Optical - Sick Note]

At a recent house party an old fellow dressed as Darth Vader in Lingerie got his hands on youtube in the early hours of the morning after the Djs had retired. Though his attire intially led to some doubts over whether he should be allowed free reign over the room's music policy, he singlemindedly drowned these quibbles in a flood of bass. As he rinsed out classics from the golden age of drum and bass something inside me awoke and I've been tracking down all my old favourites ever since. Doesn't get much better than this Ed Rush & Optical tune. Balanced between darkness and funk, with their signature sounds of cartoony angst ushering the biggest baddest bassline. It's not too fast as the dark stuff got later on, just a steady ominious chug. Cheers Vader.
