South London Ordnance (Truss remix)

In a relatively short space of time, UK producer South London Ordnance has established himself as a talent to watch when it comes to spaced-out, often hard-hitting house and techno.

We first realised his potential when he came to the Lab London back in February three years ago and his set was a gnarly, adrenaline-fuelled mix that blended futuristic sounds with a UK-focused aesthetic.

Since then he's released on Hotflush, 2nd Drop Records and via his own imprint, Aery Metals, which he released the 'Tor' EP on and at the start of this year. Two of the tracks on that record have been given shiny new remixes and we've got the premiere of Truss' re-imagining.

Now Truss is an artist who pushes listeners to their absolute limit and we haven't heard a track from him that doesn't pummel and ensnare with every beat. The UK don regularly collaborates with fellow dread-spreader Perc, which gives you an indication of the levels he operates at.

His remix of 'Bind' will do one of two things to you. It's going to send shivers down your spine or it's going to cause you to stop what you're doing and headbang with malice. We ended up doing the latter, as pounding kicks, fierce static and wriggling riffs all combine to create a track that'll destroy any venue it's played in.

Not for the faint-hearted but an absolute stormer nonetheless. Check it.

The 'Tor' remixes are released on February 19, grab the original on vinyl here and the digital here
