From Amazon.co.uk: Full Cycle's core members of Roni Size, Suv, Krust and Die spent six years sniping innovative twelves from their studios in Bristol before the majors finally started reaching for their chequebooks--Giles Peterson eventually clenching the deal for his well respected Talkin' Loud. A couple of singles and a slew of remixes followed before this album was released to critical acclaim. Switching between the minimal to the full, oppressive to the inviting, "New Forms" nods its head to the jazz experimentation of the sixties. At the same time, it retains a cutting edge feel, proof that the sound of Full Cycle is, without any doubt, one of the most advanced operating within drum and bass. "Share the Fall," captures the spirit of the whole album with harsh bass stabbing at clicked breaks and tumbling rolls, the trashily EQ'd vocal slicing apart a strung out midsection and hazy atmospheres before the beats solo out to stalk individual members of the roaring crowd. As at home in a club as it is in a car stereo or living room, "New Forms" has proved to be a seminal album that, though uniquely drum and bass, aspires to something much larger.--Kingsley Marshall
Un Essentiel amazon.fr: Lorsqu'en 1997, Roni Size signe avec succès ce livre d'or de la jungle, il fait surtout entrer l'underground anglais dans le grand concert mondial. Depuis le début des années 90, nombreux sont ceux qui, dans les faubourgs du grand Londres, expérimentent ce nouveau produit de synthèse à grands coups de breakbeats hérités du funk mais aucun n'a encore eu la reconnaissance publique. C'est chose faite avec ces New Forms qui seront tout autant saluées par la critique unanime, de New York à Paris. Au programme de cette sélection de maxis : des drum machines et des infrabasses, des BPM à toute allure, des invités bien inspirés (la rappeuse Bahamadia, le duo trip-pop Everything But The Girl...) et Roni Size (autour duquel s'agite le collectif baptisé Reprazent), en maître de cérémonies de cette funky people party survitaminée. Entrez dans la transe de ce jeu de multipistes. --Jacques Denis
