Despite being Ireland’s only Dubstep producer who has released an album, Barry Lynn aka Boxcutter surpasses most of his peers all over the world due to his broad-minded view on dubstep production. With this follow-up from 2006′s Oneiric, he has made a dubstep album to be listened to sequentially (much like some other lad called Burial or summat??) informed by jazzy flute samples, jungle, grime, 2-step and AFX-like electronica all fusing into a coherent release. Like Burial, there are no MCs and this won’t be played in clubs. It’s the sound of a man from Armagh pushing his sound further into acclaim.

amazing shit. Nice one Nialler.
great artwork too!
awesome album !
First album didnt do it for me I’m afraid… the boxcutter stuff is very much based in electronica (to my ears), whereas the Burial tunes are definitely from garage/2-step.. electronica bores the pants off me these days (the older I get!)
The first song is very trippy. I liked it a lot.
the first track has a lot of aphex twin sounds… reminiscent of the analord series
