Skream Outside the box



Recently got the new Skream album "outside the box" which is refreshingly a step in a different direction from the cuts Skream normally drops, good to see he is changing it up. Along with the dark haevy dubstep he normally drops in his sets such as "wibbler" that i heard for the first time back in May 2009, at plastic people for skreams birthday bash, which subsequently tore the place apart. There is also more of a chilled vibe featured in the album. However 2 tracks that stand out to me at the moment are his tracks with freckles "How Real" and "Give You Everything" which are defiantly worth checking out.
