BBC reviews BIGG JUS
Now Jus breaks the seven years of silence that followed 2005’s seething, Hieronymus Bosch-inspired Poor People’s Day with this paranoid dub masterpiece – albeit a “don’t mean they’re not after you” kind of paranoid, and a futurist flavour of dub that swaps old-school tape techniques for digital stutters, echoes and overloads that overwhelm the senses. Making even The Bomb Squad’s work sound spartan by comparison, it’s a dense, chaotic assault of corrosive Blade Runner synths, ever-evolving drum loops, acerbic samples and distorted dubstep wub, fashioning twisted hooks from the electronic wreckage.

“Machines That Make Civilization Fun” is available now on iTunes Europe, Amazon, Beatport and Spotify. CD out June 11 thru Laitdbac/Modulor.
