The eclectic production duo Nextmen have carved another shiny gem from London’s lovely low-end underbelly with a mix of electronic music styles in the form of their fourth studio LP Join The Dots. In typical Nextmen fashion the game has been sonically upped to dizzying heights as Join The Dots progressed like a paint by numbers prayer of affection through all the genres and styles that are loved by the pair and their fans alike. The album was born from their explosive and eclectic DJ sets, which have been the focus of global critical acclaim over the last 12 years. Making this connection between music they love, be it dancehall, drum’n’bass, instrumental and actual hip hop, soul, funk, dubstep, indie, leftfield, ambient, pop and straight-up hands in the air party jacking pleasers, is something Baloo and Search always strive to achieve, weaving their way on four turntables with mastery and abandon, laced with their own sought after mash-up edits, bootlegs and specials. This studio record is certainly a reflection and reaction to what they have accomplished as DJs and is a natural follow up to their last critically acclaimed album This Was Supposed To Be The Future (2007). Featues guest appearances by Ms. Dynamite, Dynamite MC, Banana Clan Man Jimmy Screech, newcomers Betty Steeles and Roll Deep affiliate Kivanc and Lindsay West.
