If you want to know what one of the top drum & bass numbers of 2008 is, then look no further.

Its vocal, taken from the Planet Terror movie directed by Robert Rodriguez, is a prime example of how the correct sample can make a song.

He knows the score!

He gets the women!

Yes, these phrases work wonders in this dastardly D&B tune, recently released on Beatport.

Don’t miss ‘Machete’, and check out the rest of its EP for more examples of depraved, detuned, but strangely funky underground music.

‘Cowards Beware’ is the other smasher here, featuring the brilliant vocals from the retro Sinistar video game [could anyone get past level 2?] and a syncopated lead synth that shuffles naughtily between a swing beat.
