8205 Recordings is back in 2022 with two records by an absolute legend of the scene - Bizzy B! One of the best, most distinctive and fiercely independent producers of the jungle/dnb era, Bizzy’s production chops are still the stuff of legend. The tracks on these EPs aim to showcase two different but equally important sides of Bizzy’s music: one more dark and experimental, the other upfront, slamming and jungle-oriented. 

Complementing the rawer vibes on “Close Your Eyes” EP,  “Big People EP” [8205-016] shows Bizzy’s slightly later (94-95) jungle mastery to a fine degree. On the A side, “Big People'' is an absolute monster of a track, with earth shattering drums and bass breaking through your speakers, not letting up until the last few moments.  On the flip, “Fool Bwoy (Amen Mix)”  is classic Bizzy ragga jungle through and through: heavy amens, big bass and catchy vocals. Finally, “Fling Down the Bass” keeps the ragga vibe going, but dials the intensity back a bit, with slick cold sweat break work and a more stripped down feel. 

Both "Big People EP" and "Close Your Eyes EP" will be for sale June 17th, 2pm UK time on https://8205.bandcamp.com, available as either coloured vinyl or more limited black vinyl, with full black and white picture sleeves. The vinyl will be available exclusively from the 8205 bandcamp, with digitals available separately on Bizzy’s own site Junglistdownload.
