collecting dust vol. 1

G'Day moites!

As the launch of my new record label looms and many things to celebrate in the meantime - including my upcoming gig with the Donny Sub Basics next week for Modern Hypnosis's final dance for a while!

I have been a busy boy the last few months, after the success of the first one - I decided to record Pugcast Vol 2 with 21 brand spanking new tracks, made over the last few months, there is one vinyl only release track and an older ambient joint I made 5 years ago to pad the mix out but it's mostly brand new weaponry. Mostly solo productions, some remixes and some collaborations.

The mix is rough and ready and not overly planned with a few mistakes (I didn't want to overthink it), I am quite happy with how this one came together.  

Cheers

Alex

Pugcast Vol 2

This is a mix focusing on percussive dub and roots. I put it together after a DJ gig where I had the pleasure of playing a longer than normal set which enabled me to be a bit self indulgent in the first hour and just play percussive drum based music which seemed like a nice way to set the tone for the rest of the evening. When I got back home I thought it was a good opportunity to try to capture that moment by putting  a quick mix together before the records returned to my chaotic filing system (or lack of it) probably never to be seen again for several years.

Drums (in particular Nyabinghi) play a central role in reggae and dub and I hope this mix captures some of the spiritual transcendence they deliver.

Tracklist:

Akinsanya & Amlak 6 - "Defender Of The Faith (Version)"
Sizzla – "African Vybze"
Cos Tafari – "Marcus Binghi"
Rastafari Elders – "King Highway"
Count Ossie & The Mystic Revelation Of Rastafari - "Lumba"
Dadawah - "Run Come Rally"
Ozo - "Anambra"
Cedric Im Brooks & The Light Of Saba - "Collie Version"
Tapes Meets The Drums Of Wareika Hill Sounds – "Datura Mystic"
IR::Sankara Future Dub Resurgence - "When Visions Fall From The Sky"
Delonte Rivers Feat. Sir Moon - "Rise Again"
The Souvenirs – "Bush Lark Ritual"
Shakaman - "Coronation Binghi"
Sons Of Negus - "Lion Of Judah"

ED0045: Hank Jackson b2b Yumi

Darwin operates in the realm of low-end frequencies, delivering a tripped-out, sub-rattling blend of styles firmly rooted in soundsystem culture.

Her sets move with swampy intensity and hypnotic flow, drawing dancers in while maintaining a quiet versatility. A seasoned crate digger across many genres, she’s as comfortable playing back-to-back with DJ Storm, Mala or Lena Willikens as she is closing out Bassiani or Berghain’s Klubnacht.

Born in Canada, Darwin found her way into dance music after moving to London—first working at fabric in the mid-2000s, then experiencing a bass eureka moment years later at a Swamp81 party. That defining night set the course for her next chapter in Berlin, where she founded her label SPE:C in 2015 to spotlight emerging global talents like Decka, Carré, Axle, Beatrice M., and Tano.
In 2016, she launched REEF at the now-defunct Griessmuehle, a club where she had started a monthly techno-focused DJ residency 2 years earlier that helped develop her signature stripped back, sci-fi-infused sound. The boundary-pushing party brought bass music’s alien energy into the heart of the techno capital, which now calls Berghain home. 

2024 marked a new chapter in Darwin’s evolution with the launch of ABYSS, a Sunday evening soundsystem series centered on the restorative power of low-end frequencies. Blending transcendental dance music with breathwork, meditation and healing practices, the event creates a space where sound connects body and mind. ABYSS has also teamed up with Wuppertal’s acclaimed Open Ground club for an extended weekend takeover, with plans to expand the concept to other cities in the future.

GHOST DUBS
"DAMAGED"  out now via PRESSURE Recordings.

If you like your melodies submerged, your dub narcotic, your basslines obese, and your beats evaporating, 'Damaged' provides the perfect prescription and entry point into Ghost Dub's spectral soundworld.

Michael Fiedler, Musiker und Produzent aus Stuttgart, erkundet mit seinem neuen Projekt GHOST DUBS die düsteren Tiefen von Dub, Ambient und Noise, stochert dabei wild auf dem Grund herum und schaut was sich vom Boden löst.

[…] “"If David Lynch had ever been driven to dub, it might well have sounded like this....an early contender for best of the year" –  Steve Barker / The Wire Magazine

[…] “Most of the action is happening on the edge of what the ear can hear […] air-compressing, room-shaking bassline bliss. Your neighbours won’t thank you, but your consciousness will.” – Electronic Sound Mag

[…] “Damaged is an absolute immersive triumph, a furnace-reduced, machine-tooled groove of hypnotic, ever evolving high-density inner ear-bliss.” – Mojo Mag

[…] “distills ambient dub into a wispy, wraithlike form. … Where Ghost Dubs stands out is in the intensity of his productions. Lots of people have tried their hand at this tradition, but few have achieved the heaviness, or the strangeness, of Ghost Dubs’ best work." – Pitchfork

[…] "Damaged is comfortable yet eerie, and it goes back and forth between dream and reality... Listening to the album gives the feeling of a near-death experience."  - Yuta Umegaya

[…]  “Record of the Week”  -   "As you might expect from a record released on The Bug’s Pressure label, this thing is weighty. It’s almost as if it has its own gravitational pull."  – The Quietus

[…]  "I have to admit that “Damaged” is something like the essence of Dub embodied. The distillation of 50 years of bass music."   – DubBlog.de
