This is the kind of track we like to celebrate hump-day with. Joy Orbison’s “Hyph Mgno” catches our rays with its bright homage to disco, house, and 2-step. Joy is another South London producer who originates from the thriving dubstep scene but takes a venturing detour past those breaks to a funkier place and time. The loopy session featuring an adulated female vocal has been labeled as “dubstep futurism.” Some have already called it out as the dubstep/garage track of 2009. Hotflush, another exciting underground UK label, have only now released the 12inch, even though its been gracing the playlist of both Radio 1 and underground playlists. Fair warning here – playing this track may make one forget what day of the week it is.
