intro
Complex, but rawly beautiful-sounding inch vinyl only single from pioneering dubstep act MRK1, the project of Manchester-based musician Mark Foster
From 2001 onwards, Mark Foster recorded as MRK1 of Manchester's Virus Syndicate and is regarded one of grime and dubstep's godfathers. Yes, it's grime up north and 'Going Down' means going very deep. Graced with an effective hiphop flavour, the track gradually gets a grip on you. It is like being in a slow tango with an octopus. Onto the B-Side we go. Clapping beats, hefty drums and clattering percussion went into 'Bleep Plan'. Complex and austere, but a raw beauty.
