Finally found some time—back from London and incredibly inspired. During my time there, I had the chance to meet the head of Dubmission Records, which was a fantastic experience. I explored Brixton, Dalston, Soho (where I attended the Late Late Show at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club and had the chance to listen to Myele Manzanza live session, thanks Jasper), and Shoreditch, soaking in all the vibes.

Now that I'm back, I’ve brought along some amazing impressions and just put together my latest Dub Me Crazy Show, episode 65. This mix is packed with fresh dub tracks—deep, heavy, slow, fast, sometimes leaning towards dubstep, sometimes closer to reggae, and even a few cool dub techno tracks. Some tunes have vocals, but most are instrumental, always with a solid dose of bass.

Turn it up and let the bass massage your soul. Enjoy the ride!

Mutant Disco Records beams in a mind-bending reinterpretation of a true psytrance classic with Vimana (Acid Punks Remix) — a full-throttle upgrade of Etnicas epic 90s anthem. Acid Punks injects the original with a surge of modern power, fusing pulsating acid grooves, cinematic melodies, and a driving psychedelic engine built for warp speed. Layered with a haunting vocal tale of alien intervention, DNA manipulation, and multidimensional contact, this remix is a trip through time, space, and consciousness. From the first kick to the final fade, Vimana (Acid Punks Remix) is pure dancefloor propulsion — melodic, mystical, and totally full-power. Mutate, elevate, and transcend.

Children of the Bong are British duo, Rob Henry and Daniel Goganian. Formed as teenagers in 1993, they set out to create unique music that reflected all the elements they liked from the early 90s club and festival scenes. Fusing dub bass lines and effects with funk breakbeats and fiery acid melodies, packaged around lush ambient soundscapes and analogue powered psychedelia.
Suitably signed to Planet Dog records in 1994, the pair extensively toured the UK and Europe with a live show that included DJ Marin (Nick Trim), who’s turntable antics added another layer to the spaced out interludes and all-out crescendos. That year saw ‘Symbol i’ released on the label’s Feed Your Head Vol. 2 compilation then later, ‘Ultrascope’ & ‘Ionospheric State’ appeared on one side of Quadraped Vol.1
The following year, they were packed off to the Welsh mountains armed with equipment borrowed from label mates Banco de Gaia along with producer/engineer Andy Guthrie (100th Monkey); to finish the album that was to become Sirius Sounds. 
Released July 31st 1995, ‘Sirius Sounds was an immediate success, selling well both in the UK and US…appealing to a post-rave audience who were seeking something beyond straight 'four to the floor' dance music.’ 
This was to be the only album the pair released and they split in 1996 to pursue other projects. Rob went on to form Euphonic with Nick Trim and released their self titled album - now re-released as ‘Low Orbit Archives’ on Banoffee Pies records. Daniel created a few more tracks under Children of the Bong that appeared on the Mashed Mellow Grooves compilation.
All tracks released on Planet Dog along with alternative versions, demos and remixes appear alongside a complete live set performed in 1995 in the remastered, re-released, ‘Sirius Sounds Expanded’ version. This is also available as a 3CD box set with 20 page booklet featuring many unseen photographs and artwork and  insightful sleeve notes by Kris Needs.

‘Sonic Ambulance’ is the first release from a hidden treasure trove of unreleased material that was unearthed while researching tracks to go on ‘Sirius Sounds (Expanded)’ and contains the starting culture of the Children of the Bong sound that features 100% live performances without sequencers. 
Influenced by electronic, ambient and psychedelic pioneers of the 60’s & 70’s such as Tangerine Dream, Brian Eno and Pink Floyd; the pair utilise analog synths, guitars, effects, found sounds and voice with a smattering of looped samples. These are raw streams of consciousness between two young psychonauts discovering the electrodelic world for the first time and delve in worlds also occupied by more contemporary artists of that period such as the Orb and Aphex Twin.

Created in 1993/94, these recordings have been salvaged from long forgotten cassettes and DATs and as such may contain tape hiss and occasional digital glitches. While they have been mastered to remove as much audio detritus as possible, they have been largely left unedited to preserve the original intention. 
This is not intended to be a critical masterpiece and its lack of beats may not interest those firmly rooted on the dancefloor, however lovers of electronic sound and those curious about the origins of Children of the Bong need not look any further!

As a nod to their earlier days of selling demo cassettes at live gigs, Sonic Ambulance will be available exclusively on Bandcamp and for a limited period as name your price!
