Kush Arora Riddims Mixes Highlights

Gappy Ranks, one of the leading figures in UK dancehall returns with one of his first singles in years with SF Bay Area producer Kush Arora. "Money Bags" is an introspective look on his journey from childhood to his current home in the UK. He shares hopes of aspirations and vulnerability not often expressed in the genre, all while Arora's wavy Punjabi touch of bashment flows underneath.


Formerly of Greensleeves records, he has charted with hit "Stinking Rich", and been a top UK reggae artist collaborating with everybody from the Kray Twinz, Beres Hammond to Lethal Bizzle. Not to mention his prowness in exploring future sounds in the electronic world, he's been a pioneer and has unmistakable voice and personable touch. Kush produces in the realm of indo carrbiean music, and has recently been featured in the Guardian Uk, Wire, Quietus, Fact Mag, and many more of pioneering cultural sounds.

@kusharora’s 'Vision' is a clear-eyed, uncompromising realization of riddim culture in the here & now.

Growing up listening to Mafia & Fluxy, Xterminator, Madhouse Records on rotation with now cult-classic Louie Culture cuts and the Indo-Caribbean flavors of Apache Indian, Kush Arora has long carried the iconic soundscape of dancehall close to his heart. Songs from these artists, whether they rumble through a soundsystem on a night out, remixed on jungle tapes, or from the artist’s roots, never felt out of place. With every new sound, even those seemingly unconnected to each other, everything began to coalesce. Arora’s palette shows appreciation for these connections - 2006’s 'Bhang Ragga' captured “dancehall bhangra in future dub” - and 'Visions' continues this tradition, featuring nods to the latest fusions of sound emerging from the British capital and beyond.

On 'Wine An Go Down', @blackout-ja harnesses a classic bashment feel - ruffneck meets rootsy vocals that come together perfectly.

B2BO Presents: Sideshow Will

🇫🇷
Pour cette seconde sortie de l’année, nous avons le plaisir d’accueillir le parisien Jumboclat, membre de l’équipe SeekSickSound et feu Exploration Music.

Auteur d’un premier EP solo sur l’écurie de Flore POLAAR et auteur du très remarqué ‘Tell Me’ sur Vernacular Records, il est également versé dans l’art du footwork comme en témoignent ses productions sorties sur Le French Work.

Ce ‘Cloverleaf EP’ concentre l’essence de ce qu’il fait de mieux : du 2-step profond et émotionnel de ‘B With U’ aux breakbeats acérés de ‘Timeslip’, la production est méticuleuse, tantôt sombre et tantôt empreinte de nostalgie, entre hommage aux musiques et sonorités caribéennes et sound design futuriste. Pour compléter l’EP, Stacktrace signe un remix dub mental et oppressant du morceau titre de la sortie.

For the second release of the year, we’re delighted to welcome Paris-based Jumboclat, member of SeekSickSound and Exploration Music (RIP).

Author of a first solo release on Flore’s POLAAR imprint and producing the acclaimed ‘Tell Me’ released on Vernacular Records, he is also well versed in footwork, as demonstrated by his tunes on Le French Work.

His ‘Cloverleaf EP’ is a concentrate of everything he does best : from the emotional an deep 2-step ‘B With U’ to the razor sharp breakbeats of ‘Timeslip’, the prouction is meticulous, deep and melancholic, an ode to the carribean sounds and cultures blended with futuristic sound design. To round off the EP, Stacktrace delivers a psychedelic and oppressive dub remix of the title track.
