review_id-3057.jpgThere’s been a lot of talk of the Burial album being something of a next step in dubstep, and for good reason – it is the first full-length release on Hyperdub, dark grime king Kode9’s label. But if this album had simply dropped from the sky, I doubt that this talk would be so pronounced. To me, Burial sounds much more like an evolution of what became known as trip hop in the mid-’90s. Not to say that dubstep hasn’t had a heavy hand in the formation of this album – Burial himself has talked about his time spent listening to Rinse FM, London’s pirate radio station that has become an epicenter of dubstep; and tracks like “Wounder” and “Southern Comfort,” with their bouncy rhythms and creeping synth stabs, certainly will be mixed into countless grime DJ sets. But thinking about the rhythms outside of a dubstep context quickly brings the subtle rhythmic compositions of Mezzanine-era Massive Attack to mind; Tricky’s fantastic 1995 album Maxinquaye is never too far away either.
