@tomcritchley: Bruce - Tilikum (Hodge Remix)

mixset of 2015

Young Echo's soundsystem enthusiast turns in a 46-minute set bursting with unreleased dubplates and collaborations.

The development of the various members of the Young Echo collective has provided some of the most interesting music to come out of Bristol over the past few years. Though the collective continues to grow in number, one artist who has been there since the beginning is Cris Ebdon, best known in the early days of Young Echo as one half of Zhou with Amos Childs. Together the pair released a number of standout 12”s on Punch Drunk, an EP on A Future Without and a collaborative cassette with Vessel on Astro:Dynamics, all of which fused the influence of classic dub with more ethereal textures, creating dark, complex dubstep-influenced music that felt like the logical continuation of the Skull Disco legacy.

Despite the pair being a core part of Young Echo’s early identity, recent years have seen Ebdon begun to develop his solo project, Ishan Sound. Taking more direct inspiration from Bristol’s rich soundsystem culture, and combining unsettling mystical melodies with strong bass pressure, Ebdon has been cutting his own solo dubplates since 2011, with the project’s official debut appearing on the label arm of Stokes Croft party Peng Sound early in 2013. Teaming up with local soundsystem veteran Ras Addis, “Clash Of The Titans” was a deadly steppers track, joined later that year by a similarly authentic 7”-shaped slice of dub on ZamZam Sounds. However, the project's breakthrough to wider recognition came last year, when Ebdon released the brilliant Namkha 12" on Pinch's Tectonic label.

With each of Ebdon’s solo releases offering some of the finest soundsystem music to come out of Bristol in recent years, we jumped at the chance to see in 2015 with an Ishan Sound podcast. The resulting 46-minutes sees Ebdon delve deep into his collection of unreleased dubplates for a mix that largely forgoes the music of other artists for unreleased solo tracks and vocal collaborations with Rider Shafique and Jabu. Ebdon also took the time to answer a few questions about the project's background, the state of soundsystem culture in Bristol and the Ishan Sound live show that has been turning heads of late.
