Today, we have the honor of premiering yet another release for our friends at @Defrostatica records.
@Greazus return to the Leipzig-based label with a 4 track EP, influenced by UK hardcore, jungle, and electro and with a clear focus on taking raver's hearts by storm.
Or to put it in their own words: "This record is our love-letter to good ole' warehouse rave days. The era that we both think back fondly to, that inspired us, and where we cut our teeth musically."

"WTF" is an absolute belter of a tune, clocking in at 160 bpm, and provides relentless, fierce energy as soon as you hit the play button.
The tangy acid synth and nostalgic sample use in combination with sharp breaks sum up to an incredible production, that will leave no limb unshaken!

Pantile - We Enta

GABS003 sees Bristol's Works resident Portway join the label’s roster. With previous releases on TRAX HAVEN, Moon Rack, excess, Duckland and JUKE BOUNCE WERK, ranging from 100bpm chuggers to tearout jungle, Portway has established himself as a genre-defying chameleon. His forward-thinking sound design and innovative drum programming has gained recent support from LCY, A.Fruit, Skream and many others.

Portway takes a walk down the more percussive route in his contribution to our recently launched 2-track singles series, inspired by the likes of Sinjin Hawke, Scratcha DVA, Two Shell and Atrice. “Dropshipping” opens with a precautionary melody, descends into a flurry of metallic antiphony and is then quickly pierced by a formidable bassline complimented with intricately manipulated grime vocal samples. “Lithium Souls” combines shimmering pads with considered vocal chops and crackling drums. Beware of the second drop!

Local Action is very proud to present Rushing 1621, the first EP from a transatlantic meeting of minds and styles from two of our favourite artists: Om Unit and James Bangura. 

Based in Bristol, Om Unit is a titan of UK soundsystem music, pulling footwork, hip-hop, jungle, bass, techno, breaks and more into wild new shapes across an illustrious 15-year plus career.

DC’s James Bangura meanwhile has emerged as one of the most exciting artists on America’s east coast, releasing solo heat on labels like Incienso and !K7 and regularly touring the world as part of the Black Rave Culture collective, drawing from regional club styles across the States. 

The EP’s title Rushing 1621 is a reference to both artists’ area codes, so UK-meets-US synergy is the name of the game here (and if you know Local Action, you probably already know that this sort of thing is our catnip). Garage, house, breaks and even moments that recall early ‘00s proto-dubstep and dub-techno are all present, but really, it’s both artists’ immaculate drums and flawless production that drives this thing. Some records just feel unimpeachable, and this is one.

Intersecta - Sharing This (Oddkut Remix) [bandcamp Only]

Portway & Slinki's 'Move' builds on a Latin piano before turning into a monster percussion beat, only to change again on the second drop as a big synth releases the tension.
