"Speed garage, a house/drum & bass hybrid, first surfaced in Europe in the early nineties. DJ's/groups like Armand Van Heldon, 187 lockdown and Serious Danger were among the first pioneers of this hard-hitting form of dance music. With their third release, 'The Program', Serious Danger return with an album that serves as a reminder as to why speed garage caught our ears in the first place. 'The Program' is by far their best album to date and stands among their best work including their remix of 'God is a DJ' by Faithless. There really isn't a weak song on the album. Highlights include 'Hardrockin' and 'Battleplate' both of which are funky grooves that ride on basslines straight out of hell. Speed Garage isn't for everyone. It's much more aggressive than traditional house. However, if you're interested in checking it out, 'The Program' is an excellent place to start.
