A review, a mix, a gig and a release
Various artists - Haiku EP (remixes of Stormfield original by Blackmass Plastics, Monkey Steak, Ed Chamberlain and Point B), Combat Recordings
Out on 12": November 2006
Review from this month's DJ magazine:
"Finally an underground label decides to do something interesting with electro breaks. Stormfield seeks inspiration from Photek as well as Weatherall's Swordsmen guise for a electro/2step hybrid where the razor sharp percussion clashes with recoiled aggro bass. Some of the remixes are too slow to work in a fast-paced set, but self-respecting electro ninjas can throw shapes to the intricate rework by Monkey Steak and high-powered wobble of Ed Chamberlain's version. 4/5"
