One to listen out for on the drum'n'bass/breaks scene - Bristol quintet Audio Sculptors. Making a name for themselves supporting such dance luminaries as Stanton Warriors, the boys were the mightily impressive highlight of Sunday's 12-hour Music Box Project charity event in the Subtone club, Cheltenham. Their closing set in the Bongo Bar went down a storm, a glorious, frenetic fusion of all that is good in urban and suburban music - reggae, dancehall, funk, house, electro-soul - like Jamaica invading New York with a pack o' pills and some dread-heavy basslines. The little dancefloor was quite obviously ram-packed with whirling, gracefully thrashing bodies, each complete with a grin wider than the Clifton Suspension Bridge. Job done.
