By virtue of never having adhered to any one template completely, Hyperdub is the ideal home for the most individualist of electronic artists. The video game bleeps and unorthodox melodic angles of Ikonika and Quarta 330, the loony-tunes funk-grime-rave of Joker and Zomby, and the spaced-out sensualism of Cooly G's less conventional tracks fit them all into this bracket — and Terror Danjah's 2010 album puts him right out there among this crew of ever-innovating misfits. A lynchpin of the grime scene, but always aloof from its rivalries and aggression, Terror Danjah deals in high-energy electronic future-funk with a wicked glint in its eye that tramples boundaries and confounds expectations at every single turn. From sunny, Daft Punk-y vocoder disco to dark musings on psychological troubles, from glossy electrohouse to gutter-level grime, from optimistic pop choruses to demented electronic wig-outs, it shows an artist and a label determined to channel the best that subculture and geography have to offer, but to never be tied down by those things.
