For when you’re looking for a sure fire way to get some heat on cold winter nights, Denver’s own bass music arsonist Agent Of Kaos and his scorching new single Fire Is Dangerous (A DnB PSA) is something you should keep an eye on. It’s a rip roaring slice of drum & bass madness, and will have you moving like a wildfire across the dancefloor.AOK’s production taps into intricately layered intensity from the first pounding kick drum. Reckless abandon is played with deep, gnarly basslines that churn and wobble like a subterranean earthquake, beneath a flurry of crisp snares and hi-hats.
It’s the twisted, warped synth textures that really do the trick here, weaving in and out with an otherworldly unpredictability.Just when you think you’ve got a beat on the cadence the track switches things up with some tantalizing tempo switchups and even more dope drum & bass breakdowns. Part recklessly inventive rhythmic maelstrom, part sly playfulness, subtly hilarious, every pivot hits like a sonic sucker punch that demands you keep up with AOK’s skewering of the drum & bass formula, yet for all its unbridled intensity there’s almost a playfulness to AOK’s skewering of the drum & bass formula. The mischievously tongue in cheek vibe of pitched up vocal samples and delightful on the nose Smokey Bear PSA cutups is plain fun.
However, at its core, this is a full body banger designed to fully incinerate clubs and headphone listening sessions alike. AOK’s sound design and programming are jaw dropping technical flexes that manage to be both masterful and intricate. However, it’s the raw, uncompromising energy that pervades every annihilating beat pattern that makes the track really blaze, and it’s no doubt that Agent Of Kaos has fast become a groundbreaking force of the electronic underground, with a prolific run of singles over the last two years. That’s the title of his boundary pushing artistic ethos sizzled into a dizzying display of pinpoint production precision coupled with delirious, adrenaline soaked menace. This is your official Smokey approved permit to start some wildfire madness.
