MPH stuns with Refraction, his debut album, out now via Night Bass.
In the sonic labyrinth of Refraction, the UK producer shatters genre boundaries like a prism splitting light. It’s a shapeshifting beast, prowling the shadowy realms between garage’s swagger, jungle’s frenetic pulse and the quaking rumble of 140 dubstep.
To that end, Refraction isn’t just a display of technical skill; it’s a journey through the evolution of UK dance music, reimagined through one producer’s unique lens. The album stands as a testament to MPH’s versatility and his deep understanding of the genres from which he draws, leading to a must-listen for fans of electronic music who crave innovation and experimentation.
Highlights are everywhere in Refraction, which doesn’t just push envelopes—it shreds them. In “My Mind,” he beautifully blends brisk UK garage with soulful vocals, creating a haunting track that leaves listeners questioning where their minds end and the music begins. That walk-on-air delirium continues in “Lights On,” a collaboration with Eloise Keeble and Night Bass founder AC Slater, before crashing back to earth with a blistering bass house drop.
Elsewhere, MPH stuns with “Funk Master,” one of the album’s undeniable standouts. A stunning descent into 140 dubstep, it’s a sonic rollercoaster built by a demented architect, plunging us through hairpin turns of writhing bass and warped, cinematic textures. The same goes for “Crowd Rolling,” a jungle banger where loungey keys slink through frenetic drum patterns.
