Remember before the internet when you used to go to the park until dusk and swings were the most exciting thing in the world and if you swung hard enough you might be able to jump off at the top of your trajectory and launch yourself into orbit or at least far enough that you'd land on the grass clear of the tarmac?

Ghostek and Roof Light - Known All The Days by Roof Light The collaboration of Ghostek and Roof Light is simply dark, deep and down-right sexy. Think if Burial , XXXY and Star Trek had a lovechild. This would definitely pop out. Full of menacing crunches, met with the caress of careful rhythms and precisely poised glitches. Put this all in one huge metaphorical bowl and boom. If you've got a decent set of speakers on you, your room will rattle. Your pile of dirty [...]

We'll keep this one brief... more because of a lack of tangible information than a desire to be pithy and readable. We don't know a great deal about new-age two-stepper Roof Light , other than that he's very, very good at the old production business. South London and/or borderline home counties with the name Gareth Munday on his passport - that's pretty much all we've got on the hard facts front. Not that it matters though when the slew of EPs he's released since late last year have just been getting better and [...]

Photo: RWINA 008 artwork: Noah D "My Vitamin Pillbox Nikes" / "The Love" Another month whizzed by, and it's hard to find any common theme this month aside from the ever-growing diversification of bass-centered musics, or whatever the hell you want to call this stuff. Chalk it up to changing personal tastes or some actual tangible trend, but this month might have the least 'actual dubstep' of any of the columns past, focusing more on the house, drum'n'bass and experimental end of things than ever before. [...]
Kirkwood Gaps LP artwork THE MONTH IN DUBSTEP & BASS: JUNE 2010 REVIEWS: PAGE 1 | PAGE 2 INTERVIEW: ROOF LIGHT | IN THE MIX: ITAL TEK English producer Roof Light makes music too restless to settle down into any one niche, music that's so fluid it can't help but overwhelm the shallow barriers of categorization and classification. It's music that will flood your senses until [...]
Roof Light is amazing...really understated dubstep that jumps around from melancholy to ecstatic. His new EP on MJ Cole's Prolific label is a total mixed bag, including what sounds like a fuzzy Yo La Tengo instrumental at the end - definitely a good thing. 01 Harlem Power DOWNLOAD - Roof Light - Harlem Power
