Sebastian Inwood has long been regarded as one of drum & bass s most promising producers, with a string of impressive singles on Ingredients and Hospital testament to his talents. Strange System is the Bournemouth-based break freaks debut album, and simply sparkles with futurist intent. Comprised mainly of tracks that blend sturdy, bass-heavy D&B rhythms with the kind of melodious flourishes that have become Hospital s trademark, its an album full to bursting with highlights. These include, but are not limited to, the punishing sub and sweaty, late night vocal samples of Xylo, the slick, rolling liquid D&B of Powder Coated (produced in collaboration with London Elektricity, and the D&B rap rinse-out of Illaman hook-up Weirdos & Creepers.
