Among the influential artists responsible for pushing neurofunk, Agressor Bunx truly is a household name, if not for years already. It’s even safe to say the forward-thinking Ukrainian duo has played a pivotal role in shaping the sound of the subgenre throughout roughly 12 years of involvement – their releases so far, after all, total to a staggering amount of more than 40 EPs and four albums.
