Whomping Wednesdays: Metrik T-2000
Alright party people, it’s that time of the week again so turn up the b-b-b-bass! We had a crazy week with work and friends’ weddings and there was one track in particular that kept my energy up and spirits high so I could power through.
Metrik, a drum & bass producer from the UK, just dropped his ‘Between Worlds’ EP a few days ago on November 7th on Viper Recordings and his track T-2000 is an absolute monster!!!
I first heard T-2000 (or the T-1000 VIP drum step track as it was called in its prerelease days) played by Crissy Criss last summer and I was left daze and confused after it blasted my brains out. This has to be one of the most underrated dnb tunes of 2011 and I can’t believe that more DJs haven’t been blaring this song during their sets. Every time I hear this song my blood starts rushing, my head wobbles with the beat, and my body dances/flails about with reckless abandon when the beat drops (…listener discretion is advised because I have definitely had a few funny looks at work when I shook the cubicle walls with my iPod-induced raves).
Enough talk. Listen here. There are a bunch of YouTube rips currently out there, this one being my favorite because shooting pictures of turntables is one of my favorite highlights when photographing live DJ sets, but go download Metrik’s ‘Between Worlds’ EP stat.
