Info on Dream Continuum? from the Machinedrum boiler room

[1017_duck]

This might be the biggest set I heard all last year..just incredible really. Can't find any info at all on the Dream Continuum tunes. Both hard as fuck. Can't find anything on Youtube and I'm sure most of you have heard it, but here's the link to the Boiler Room set.

I need 'A New Meaning' in my life too. My god..

I want 'Set It' pretty badly. I feel like this Dream Continuum moniker is another alias for Travis Stewart. Something about the production just struck me as quite similar to Machinedrum. I'm surprised not many people have been asking after the Dream Continuum tracks in his Boiler Room set. They're big.

Haha what are you trying to say?

[wobbles]

[hskeng93]

You forgot one. zomby = aphex twin.

Well, I promise that I'm not Dream Continuum. I just really want to get my hands on some of his (or her) tracks.

This three tracker from the aptly named ‘Dream Continuum’ is a collaboration between Travis Stewart a.k.a. Machinedrum and Jim Coles a.k.a. Om Unit, who was behind the Phillip D Kick 'footwork jungle' tracks in 2011.

The meeting came about when Travis and Jim realised they were working in parallel on the same concept of finding the sweet spot between mid-90’s euphoric jungle and footwork, so naturally they set about working out how to find it together.

The ‘Reworkz EP‘ moves backwards and forwards in time with ‘Be Free’ treating Jungle’s diva samples with footwork pitch bending and repetition while adding huge uplifting chords that capture the euphoria of rave perfectly. It’s then laid over tough, rolling 808 kicks and snares at 160bpm with a carpet of pumping, rhythmic sub-bass resulting in a new hybrid that is both fresh and energetic.

‘Give a Lil Luv’ is, if anything, even more euphoric, like rolling thunder with an intense, melodic use of samples and chord stabs with metallic breaks building into a spiky mesh of rhythms.

On side B ‘Set it’ draws classic dancehall, soul and reggae samples across a perfect mix of fast juke cymbals and jungle amens, each part casually camouflaging the other, tempering footwork’s sometimes intimidating sparseness and filling it with rich, warm and sincere rave energy.
