Lionheart

Ziro embodies the essence of the Bristol-based club-night-turned-label Crazylegs with a drive to experiment and an ambition to deliver the unexpected. "Lionheart" is a breathless six-and-a-half minutes of thunderous, fractured drums and shimmering trance riffs. "Strafe" brings Belfast madman Bloom into the fray, with trademark hydraulic percussion creating a wonderful hybrid. "London City Warlord" Riko Dan spits a bag of violence on "Dun Talk," a move into more straightforward rap beat territory. "Distance" provides a moment of blissful calm before "Rapture" closes the record with its grimiest workout.
