Danny Rankin and DJ Motu, aka MK3 DUBZ, present their debut release: Brakes EP. Following on from a series of bootlegs — which have received major support from some of the underground scene's frontrunners — this two-track EP provides the perfect taster to the MK3 DUBZ sound.

The title track ‘Brakes’ is a bass-heavy sound system killer that’s rich with modern clarity from today’s production, as well as a nod to the 90’s. Meanwhile, the gritty broken beat Grime cut ‘Ignition Riddim’ is an MC’s dream instrumental.

SAK005 - NothingNice (Clips)

145 breaks, boomin' 808s, and a popular Splice vocal.

Bad Boi is the first original tune I feel comfortable sharing with the world. Stream it now on Soundcloud (link in bio).

It's a little underbaked in the mixing and mastering department. I lost the project file unexpectedly, and I'd rather move on to new ideas instead of spending ages trying to recreate this one. That said, I'm happy with how it turned out despite the lack of finishing touches, so I thought I'd upload it to provide a little preview of the musical direction I'm taking.

Wanna give a huge thanks to all the producer friends who have been kind enough to share their insights and feedback. Hope you all like it!

More (actually finished) tunes coming soon!

Bad Boi

The story of this EP is about how, as time moves on, you’ve always got a crush on someone. Because she makes you feel alive, and that’s why you’re always close to her. And in that closeness, you sometimes don’t have the courage to say it. I know, and you know, that if you do, you could lose the chance for this love to have no end. So just say — So I Got A Crush On You, Cause With Her I Feel Alive, Time Is Slipping Away, But I’m Close To You, And If I Do The Right Thing I Know Your Love (Our Love) Knows No End. ^^
