Edd Stephens (SmashBack) has previously produced bass-bothering electro and techno hybrids for WIDE records, which recently caught the attention of Dave Clarke who played the track 'Bernard's Ghetto' on his White Noise radio show & charted it at number 11 in his September 2007 chart. 'Forward Slash' sees SmashBack speed things up towards a more Drum & Bass influenced structure, with a variety of remixes that keep the fast pace and bass impact.
Tracks from the Forward Slash E.P have been played on the Alta Ego & ill.fm digital radio stations. DJ support has come from Radioactive Man, Warlock & Glover. Shelley Parker has charted the E.P at number 3 in her December 2007 chart. Mixmag, DJ mag, hyponik.com & the fun-in-the-murky website are confirmed for future reviews.
