Optiv & BTK Get "Reckless" on Their Latest EP

The drum and bass duo push the genre towards violent intensity.

From the moment this track starts, you feel like it's going to kick your teeth in—and you're right. An angry bassline chases the sound of a frantically tapping hi-hat. Suddenly, Optiv & BTK's "Reckless" flies into high gear and you're moshing along at a rate of 160 face punches per minute. From its violently rapid tempo, to the monstrous roar of a warped vocalist, the song is a musical exploration of visceral kinetic energy.

"We are really proud of this release and we hope everyone else enjoys it too," the guys tell THUMP of "Reckless," a track off their forthcoming EP Dark City, out on January 8, 2016, on Blackout Music. A classic take on the drum and bass genre, heightened by Optic & BTK's symphonic display of mild insanity, the song is an obvious match for the heavy-industrial obsessed.
