NCQL annouces himself in no uncertain fashion with the anthemic strings of >The Framed Dreams Of Loki<. The track nods to DJ Premier, Prefuse 73 and classic Metalheadz D&B Hidden Agenda style and theres a subtle (!) reference to a certain classic 90s rave tune in there aswell. It sounds like a mess – its anything but! This is uplifting breakbeat at its very best. Its not often a tune gets played twice by Bailey on his BBC 1Xtra show in the space of a month, so this must be something special. The flipside has a similar organic & uplifting aesthetic. A strutting break is the base for a deluge of warmth in the shape of synths, strings, flutes, harp and vocals – an unusual sound palette for a Drum & Bass track these days but refreshing to hear. DJ Flight thought so and has aired it on one of her Next Chapter Rinse FM broadcasts.
