Vicious Circle return with the second in their 'Hardbox Strikes Back' series and this time it is Mr Paul Maddox that takes the helm.. Fresh from the Sheffield studio are two fantastic tracks showcasing Paul's harder side. 'Phaserblade is a forward thinking hard house anthem in the making, with a similar sound to some of the Baby Doc tracks of old this is a sure fire winner. 'Silhouette' is the second track, this has been championed by all the major players over the past few months and gets the harder floors going crazy. The other tracks on the release come from Nik Denton, Ben Stevens & Paul Glazby, all showing why they are at the top of the hard house game. Our up and coming producer profile for volume two is Morcambe based Leon Allen.'Somewhere Anywhere' is one of the harder tracks from Vicious Circle in a while and with more tracks from Leon to come he is one to watch for the future. The release is finished off in style with Rodi Style's amazing remix of the Defective Audio classic 'Reflux'
