(Drum & Bass/Breakcore) (Ohm Resistance [11MOHM]) Silent Killer - Everyone Bleeds - 2009, MP3 (tracks), 320 kbps

Silent Killer is Sean Shah, a Konkrete Jungle NYC resident, hailing from the wilds of south Brooklyn, NY. A veteran of the drum n bass 12" circuit, with releases on Obliterati, Outbreak UK, Hate Recordings, and of course Ohm Resistance, he has stepped up to the plate with a powerful album project that breaks him far out of the DnB mold. Combining influences of both east coast and west coast hip hop, cutting edge electrohouse, a love of the Notorious B.I.G., the symphonic atmospheres of Don Davis, and a sharp ear for world music and vocal samples, Silent Killer has matured as an artist beyond the world of singles and dancefloor exclusivity.
The biggest surprise for those familiar with the usual brutality of Silent Killer's music is the sheer accessibility of the entire album. Taking elements of th e most recent electro happenings and fusing them with heavy and precise drum n bass beats, EVERYONE BLEEDS is a true crossover masterwork. From the melodic opening of Savior to the uplifting synths in The Great Machine the album rocks like drum n bass thugs at the electro club – partying nonstop and smashing the place up while loving every second. Remixes from top level dnb producer Submerged and up and coming Guerilla head honcho Breaker liven up the album, without distracting from the vibe. Melodic interplay and razor sharp reeses dot the record while thick, powerful beats and subsonic basses fire underneath, keeping the groove moving throughout. Surprising, elevating, and memorable, EVERYONE BLEEDS is a testament to Silent Killer's maturing as an artist.
