The Dub Raw label returns with the heavyweight debut solo release Don’t Test by Atom Dubs, a resident of our community. Prepare for four powerful sound system tested bangers, each with its own unique character.

The grimey synth "armor" of the opening track Grips sits confidently on a classic stripped-down dubstep groove. As promised in its title, the track grabs you with an unrelenting grip from the very first drop and doesn’t let go until the end. It’s followed by the equally potent and uncompromising No Gs, featuring a timely yardie message about the need to leave the gunplay behind. The title track, Don’t Test, serves as Atom's calling card — a deep killer tune with a roller’s nature, delivering a serious warning: don’t even think about testing this soundboy. Forest Dive takes the most trippy (or even trance-like) turn in the release, infused with flashbacks from Max’s time living in Southeast Asia. Equally fitting for personal reflection or for unleashing pressure on the dance floor, this track stands out as a unique journey.
