Generic chameleons of the highest order, Various bowl us over yet again with another absolutely killer take on what is happening in the UK underground scene. Moving on from their dubstep and cybeR'n'B phase, Various tackle the undergrounds current thirst for rolling 4/4 styles from minimal to niche and funky in their unique and highly skilled manner. 'Diver' is the perfect fusion of jacking and funky house with a minimal techno styled riff and atmosphere, woken up with bashy attitude and dancefloor intuition written all over it. 'Monster' is a pure punk take on niche, albeit punks with the finest studio skills around. Ripping up a monstrous synthline AFX would be proud of over jackhammer edits and a kicking 4/4 in it's measly 2.20 lifespan they have truly excelled themselves. before heading back into the undergrowth, Various go Missing In Action with a fried synth edit with some big female vocals you might just recognise (an M.I.A. remix!)
