The wait for Virtual Riot’s new EP, German Engineering, is finally over. Six heavy new tracks from the German artist burn their way through your speakers, including a heavy collaboration with Virus Syndicate.
Virtual Riot is a man known for his impeccable sound design and engineering, and his skills shine through on each and every one of these tracks. While he for the most part sticks to riddim/dubstep, some tracks like “Jump The Gun” and especially “The Darkest Night” play a little more loosely with the formula.
And then there’s “Chop Chop,” which seems to make fun of the chopping mechanism popularized by Squnto and recently adopted by a group of younger dubstep DJs as a method of mixing. In “Chop Chop,” Virtual Riot switches up the track constantly so you don’t have to!
Ultimately, this is just another fantastic EP in a long series of releases from Virtual Riot, and we wouldn’t expect anything less. Check it out below via Disciple.
