Six face-melting gurners for the 21st Century#s, wilted and jilted generation. Glasgow#s Lady Neptune follows her New Gorbals Gabber cassette EP with her debut vinyl release NOZ. Over the course of 23 bloody fisted minutes, Lady Neptunes aka Moema hyper destructed take on Gabber and Happy Hardcore breaks down the genre tropes before rebuilding them as a new pop music. If 2020s New Gorbals Gabber showed an artist building their own language from fragments of different genres, 2022s NOZ goes harder into the cyberpunk-ass future and takes no prisoners. Recorded and mixed at Glasgow#s legendary Green Door Studios and mastered by Rashad Becker, here Lady Neptune evolves into a monster. With the classic weapons of Dutch Gabber#distorted 909 kick drums, bursts of noise and world-eating Rave-O[1]Matic hoovering synth riffs, Lady Neptune#s 6 tracks constantly threaten to careen off the speaker into the sweatiest, most gibbering, messy corners of the club. The two years since her debut has seen Meade destroying festival dancefloors, training for the full assault that is NOZ. Live performances have seen foam guns, tequila pistols, neon stage dancers and a full, maxed-out orgy of fast-as-hell BPM, rave music burning up the cones. The experience reaps rewards from the outset on recorded form here.
