Some things just make quite a bit of sense. A joint 12” by UK titans Burial and Kode9 is one of those things. There are two tracks here, both excellent in their own way. Burial comes through with nine minutes of euphoric two-step garage. It sees the artist’s signature sound palate—crackly, distant—pushed to unusual levels of clarity. There’s even a trance synth. Hyperdub head Kode9’s offering is equally British. There’s processed vocals—a kind of future-shock take on the melodious ska hooligan archetype—and deranged jungle breaks. I feel like acting like a cheesy music writer right now, which is to say that I feel like writing the following sentence, which is not in itself incorrect: These are two masters operating at the height of their powers.
