With his latest release, “FUSE (Jungle Flip),” Giorgio Fazio takes a daring leap into the great unknown. Grime This raw and visceral flip of Hudson Mohawke’s classic 2009 cut from Butter is a tribute, not just to when electronic music changed but to the emotional energy behind that change.
Borrowing liberally from the UK Autonomic movement and the textured, jittery energy of SoundCloud in its early days, Fazio constructs “FUSE (Jungle Flip)” instinctually, not imitatively. A track that sounds both urgent and alive breaks, unexpected rhythms, emotional residue clinging to every snare and synth.
“FUSE (Jungle Flip)” is not glossy, made for the mainstream sheen, it’s tailor made for headphones, dark basements, and creative hearts. It’s Giorgio and his past talking to each other and it pays homage to producers like ASC and early HudMo, while carving his own chaotic, beautiful lane into the underground.
There’s a rawness to the music that feels elemental. This is the sound of the emotional squirm of a generation reared on warped pads, jumpy tempos and late-night uploads that felt like they belonged to no one but you. Fazio has transmuted that energy and made it modern another example of how inspiration does not necessarily require refinement, just truth.
