Following a plethora of single 12", here comes, finally, the first full length album by Rob Sparx, which follows the apparently trendy formula of a CD album coming with a second made of previous vinyl-only tracks (I'm looking at you, Distance and Bar9). While ranked among the most regarded dubstep producers in the UK, Rob Sparx delivers here something which is definitely darker and a lot more low key than expected. Besides some remixes on the second CD, this "Trooper" is more of a slow, stripped, quasi Cyrus-like trip, and one of melodic, dub and not so heavy dubstep. Pretty moody, and the DJ can still grab the floor-packers on the second disc.
