Random Fact - Rooted [Superordinate Dub Waves]

Dimension Zéro

Started by Ezra Ereckson and Tracy Harrison in 2012, ZamZam Sounds is a Portland, Oregon-based label that’s focused on the dub continuum born of Jamaican roots reggae and dub, and grown worldwide through electronic sounds such as dubstep, techno and dark garage. Growing from Ezra and Tracey’s time spent running the Bucolic Sound Investigations label in the ’90s, another experimental dub outlet that released the likes of Muslimgauze and Jah Warrior, ZamZam Sounds focuses on a dub sound that rattle bones on contemporary club dancefloors as well as more traditional dub dances. With their slavish attention to detail and dedication to the vinyl format – all releases are on 7” single, and have beautiful, screen-printed artwork, too – ZamZam Sounds is has grown into one of the finest new dub labels around. For their Choice Mix, Ezra has woven together a range of music from the label’s history, including lots of forthcoming material and exclusive dubplates. This one is shaking out your demons.

Following hot on the heels of his Wednesday Dub EP, Stillhead is releasing a new 8-track album packed with deep, dub-techno infused sounds spanning the genre gamut, from ambient to drum & bass. All taking strong inspiration from the worlds of ambient and deep dub-techno.

From sluggish bass-heavy slow-step pieces like Flowing, to more skittish ambient steppers like Drowning, the album has Stillhead immersed in a world of circulating chords, reverb-drenched echoes and tight rhythmic production. Cinematic and expansive from the get-go, this one will be sure to appeal to fans of this deeper end of the musical spectrum.
