Up til now, Nero's sound has been thoroughly rooted in the present, helping to usher in dub-step as a genuine part of the mainstream - but with Reaching Out, they strike out on a tangent; working in acidy early 90s house sounds and switch things up with a male vocal.
At times, this potent cocktail veers towards Pendulum's brand of uber-dance, all engorged bass and glamorous sheen - for the most part though, Nero continue to do what they've been doing so well for the past few months, that is, confidence in simplicity.
After all, with the eternally popular Guetta-formula of clubland tracks looming ever-present in the charts, the relative clear-cut, more analogue sounds of Nero have a refreshing sprightliness to them. That skyscraper-szied synth riff in Me & You? Sometimes that's all you need.
Reaching Out is released on the 26th December.
