Press Reviews It’s always terribly difficult to be original in music; and especially so in a genre such as drum’n’bass, where the same breaks seem to be utilized over and over again ad infinitum. The Random Monkey boys have made no quantum leaps beatwise – but their programming is very good, and best of all, pretty funky. However, it’s the melodic elements that make Song For Sab a standout track. Featuring a host of orchestral elements – violin stabs, huge chord swells and deep pads - all perched atop a full rolling bassline, they have concocted a dramatic, grandiose sound. It’s reminiscent of a d’n’b version of Hybrid’s symphonic breakbeat classic Finished Symphony, which is high praise indeed. Extremely impressive young producers. (BrynR)
