Bukkha & Dubbing Sun ft. Donovan Kingjay - Whip Dem (Original Mix)

UK Dub pioneers Alpha & Omega finally return to ZamZam with “The Jungle Trembles,” an absolute anthem of a tune, a heartical call to action voiced by Steppas Records’ stalwart Nai-Jah. “Money-making has filled our minds with disease / you keep on raping, yet some still can’t find food to eat.” The lyrics demand empathy and overstanding atop a heaving bassline, magisterial melodica, sparkling keys and synths and jungle sounds that transport us to the very heart of the struggle. “The Dubplate Trembles” extends the vibes in classic A&O fashion, reminding us once again of why the duo have such a storied place in the history of this music we love.

Inspired in large part by the immortal Jah Shaka, A&O were amongst the very first artists to make dub music outside of Jamaica, key in the soundsystem culture and bass music expansion from JA via the UK to the world. Formed in the 1980’s and with over 30 studio albums to their name, we couldn’t be more proud to work with them once again. Nai-Jah graced the ZamZam stage at Outlook festival alongside Dub Dynasty back in 2017, so finally having him on a release completes another circle. An instant classic, “The Jungle Trembles” is a call to hear and heed the cry of the planetary systems and indigenous wisdom that sustain us before it’s too late.

Strictly limited to 850 7” vinyl copies for the world- no digital, no repress. Mastered by Precise. Screen print by Polygon Press. Releasing end of November, 2024. Retail or wholesale inquiries: zamzamsounds@gmail.com

The Vacuum of Space (Original Mix)

The ZamZam Sounds screen printed 7” vinyl journey concludes with a massive double pack link-up from Bristol legends Dubkasm & Gorgon Sound, not heard together on vinyl since Peng! Sound 12”s back in 2013 and 2018. ZamZam’s love for Bristol’s musical vibes and sound system culture and history is well-established, since kicking off the label with Henry & Louis ft. Prince Green’s “Every Time” in 2012. It’s only fitting that the series concludes in Portland’s sister city; but while ZamZam 01 was an unreleased deep cut from the 90s, the 99-100 double pack is a fully up to the minute dispatch. 

The set starts off with Dubkasm’s “The Return,” a heavy stepper in the duo’s brutal yet lush style; fleeting melodica and ephemeral flute float over a bed of heavy bassline and tough percussion. Alive with the sounds of nature, shot through with laser and siren, Dubkasm’s desk-as-instrument ethos is on full display with raw dubbing galore. Gorgon Sound’s remix ramps up the intensity with a lean, muscular, synth-driven rebuild that’s already proved to be a guaranteed rewind anywhere it’s played.

Gorgon Sound’s “Born Under Siege” is purest Gorgon while feeling like a new evolution in the pair’s unmistakable sound. Crystalline synthetic horns and strings interlace in a gorgeous melodic dance with buzzing mid-range synths and lacerating percussion over a dark martial riddim that’s both fully steppers and unlike anything we’ve heard in the idiom. Dubkasm’s crucial remix is thick, baroque and bombastic, a dubwise hall of mirrors and echoes that wrings every last drop of dub from the original. 

Pressed with each version on the B side of the opposite 7” for playing showcase style, ZamZam 99-100 are housed in a single full color offset-printed, double-die cut gatefold jacket with additional silver screen print. Limited to 1000 copies for the world. There won’t be a repress, so grab the last chapter of the label’s legendary run where you find one. Keep following the ZamZam socials- there’s more to come. 

Strictly limited to 1000 copies for the world - no digital, no repress. Art, design & screen print on top of offset print by Polygon Press. Mastered by Sam at Precise, pressed at Cascade Record Pressing. Shipping late September, 2025.

This is a very, very special one...

Marking the final release on one of my favourite record labels of all time, the mighty ZamZam Sounds, is this very special 7" double back covering both numbers 99 and 100 in the series. I remember first discovering ZamZam (which was when I bought ZamZam 1!) and having one of those life affirming moments when you realise there are other people out there on the same wavelength as you. A vinyl only label releasing high quality progressive dub music on limited run 7"s in beautiful hand screen printed sleeves. Boom! I was hooked....

It's amazing and heartwarming to see the label go from strength to strength since then and to reach it's century of releases here. I can't think of many occasions when I've played out and not dropped at least one ZamZam tune which is testament to the quality and the diversity of music the label has provided a home for. On top of all that Tracy and Ezra (who run the label) are really lovely people who have created a real "ZamZam Fam" both in terms of the artists featured on the label and the dedicated community of fans spread across the world like me.

So it is with a tinge of sadness that this release marks their last ever on the label but all good things must some to an end and it's always good to bow out on a high, which they most definitely are with this exceptional release featuring two legends of the dub world and long time ZamZam favourites - Bristol's Dubkasm and Gorgon Sound. Not only do we get an absolutely killer tune here from each of them but we're also treaated to them remixing each others tracks which (in true clever thinking ZamZam style) get pressed up on the B-sides of the other piece of vinyl to their own tunes so you can play them back to back in a showcase/discomix style.

And off course as you'd expect the presentation is second to none. The two 7's are housed in a single full colour offset-printed, double-die cut gatefold jacket with additional silver screen print. From looking at the pictures above it is indeed an object of great beauty befitting of such an epic release.

Limited run. No digital. No repress.

Grab yourself a bit of ZamZam history while you can!

The Root of all Evil (Original Mix)

Behind the scenes

Babe Roots are a relatively young duo from Turin, Italy, making a unique brand of atmospheric, techno-infused dubwise.  On our radar since their splendid debut 7” on Rohs! Records in early 2016, we are very pleased to invite them into the ZamZam fold with two mesmerizing and contrasting tunes.  

“Be Still” is a deeply meditative yet driving dub techno trek in classic fashion, featuring rastaman Kojo Neatness intoning on righteous living, working the land, guarding the tongue, and avoiding Babylonian schemes and traps laid by the wicked.  Maternal bass and shimmering reverbs envelop a heartbeat rhythm of kick, shaker and distant snares for a timeless vibe that shows mastery of the idiom while updating it for contemporary sound systems.  

“Rawness” is an extraordinarily deep 140 journey that opens with rich pads and swirling atmospherics, creating a psychoactive ambience that builds into a steady kick.  The full riddim hits and plunges us even deeper with restrained, syncopated drums and percussion.  Churning bass powers us through the dense, hallucinatory fog as tendrils of electricity probe and zap, and serrated snares cut through the tape haze and studio clouds in the last third.  Carving out a gorgeous edge between deep dubstep and dub techno, “Rawness” hits all the marks and will find a home in a huge range of sets.

Mastered by Sam Precise.  Design & screen print by Polygon Press.  Limited to 600 copies for the world.  No digital, no repress.  Contact zamzamsounds@gmail.com for subscriptions, wholesale, or other info.  Follow us on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter to stay in the loop!
