We’ve been waiting for a fair bit to share this 🙌🏼 Next up on Jugaar is a nimble EP from Karachi born, label co-founder Rudoh.

Staying true to the label’s elastic approach to dance music, Warp Speed is a frenetic, razor-sharp, and weighty record that deftly weaves thru genres - never landing in one spot long enough to be pigeonholed.

Big love and thanks to everyone involved ❤️

Warp Speed EP | JR005 by @rudoh_ is now available on all streaming platforms and Bandcamp. Check bio for links 🔗

Saturna - It Wanders (Nyktrne Remix)

Lurking in the shadows on the likes of Wobble Infection and Audio Massacre, D&B's favourite wolfman Lupo returns to On Point with five uncut, high grade groaners. Stripped back, tense and gnarly, each cut is a certified bone-rattler. Highlights include the stark two-tone style bassline and graveyard breakdown on "It's A Trap", the sunnyside horns and perverted low-end of "Run It" and the brazen stinky minimalism of EP opener "Meditation". You bark all day little wolfy?

HAMMERFIST EP

ULTRANATE - FREE (KL BOOTLEG) CLIP

Something about the name of this EP from Kontakt leads you to believe that it's nothing short of mind bending music and if you’re on the same wavelength as us, then you’re probably right in your assumption. A brand new sound from the Serial Killaz label that’s full of ‘Drips, Trips and Slips’.

The lead track comes in the form of ‘Disassemble’. A tune so focussed on pitch bends and grotty pads that playing it repeatedly for too long will no doubt turn the rest of your street into one foot skanking zombies. ‘Planet 9’ is surprisingly more upbeat and somewhat jolly with it’s bright snares and kicks that probably symbolise the best part of your sonic trip. A perfect way to avoid any kind of comedown or morning after vibes. Someone pass the saxophone!

If you’re a DJ, you already know that the graveyard shift can either be bloody amazing or a pain in the arse. Thankfully, on this occasion Kontakt provided enough vibes and atmosphere to keep whatever party you’re at going. It’s also been said that dropping ‘Graveyard Shift’ on your next livestream can boost the number of shares by 50%. ‘Entropy’ is a strange beast, combining elements of other tracks from the EP and making one hell of a mash up. Probably best combined with some hellish behaviour and a couple of Red Stripes.

Licking off the EP, Kontak joins forces with Vital Elements for ‘Witness This’. A fine Serial Killaz staple that pays homage to the sound of the label and reminds fans why they came here in the first place. Something new combined with something old and boom.... It’s a wrap.

Norwich-based beatsmith Substance arrives on Helix Records for his latest release, following a jam-packed year that saw the high-tempo don draw heavy support from the likes of T>I, Annix, Sub Zero, AC13, Disrupta & more, whilst also releasing a slew of sharp, well-received drops from across the entirety of the Drum & Bass spectrum. Linking up with south coast partystarters Helix on this high-octane 174 lick, 'Scatta' takes the form of a dancefloor-primed, pinpoint DnB cut, always upping the energy & fluidity but never sacrificing on technique or musicality. No mercy.

Substance - Scatta [Helix Records] [OTW Premiere]

“Reminisce” is the second single from Toronto Is Broken’s forthcoming third album “Clare”, bringing forth a new chapter regarding the sound of Toronto Is Broken. Finally fusing together his two music loves, drum & bass and metal, with such clarity, “Reminisce” sets the benchmark in what to expect from TIB’s new album and music from now on.

Natty Campbell (Chase & Status, Chopstick Dubplate & Dub Pistols) also returns for vocal duties after last year’s collaboration “Set It” (ProgRam), providing a high energy vocal, perfectly complimenting the track’s aggressive low-tuned guitars and driving drums.

The flipside features a remix from up and coming YANA producer Matt Neux, bringing his jungle roots to the forefront; big 808's and hefty foghorns. This one's for the bucket hat crew!

YANA013 has also been released in association with the Beats in Mind: Headsbass mental health project, with all funds raised being donated to various mental health charities. YANA013 drops on 14th August 2020 on all major online stores and streaming platforms.

Scave - Mash It Down [FREE DOWNLOAD]

Rapper, DJ, MC, Raver
Unfortunately the best stuff is unreleased 😉

The Sleazebag MC (commonly known as TN), is London Rave Scene’s Triple Threat. 

He’s an absolute lyrical genius, who meticulously produces his own sound and will mix’n’blend DNB, Jungle, Garage, 4X4 and anything that tickles the ear.

A true Londoner at heart, you can either catch him decked out in Stüssy - mic in hand spitting the cleanest bars, or dancing by the rig with a sharp stank face.

TN’s sound is heavily influenced by the music he was bought up around - consisting of Old School Hip Hop, 90s rap, Reggae, Soul and Disco

At age 15 he discovered his passion for rapping  due to being influenced by American rappers such as Wu-tang, Run the Jewels, Eminem, Logic, Kendrick, and Childish Gambino 

It wasn’t til the following year that he was turned onto ‘Brit hop” Basically just the same old Boom Bap beats that reminded him of childhood but with a Brit screaming down the microphone instead of a Yank
Suddenly something clicked and he was able to express himself more and be himself on the track in his own voice without trying to emulate the US sound.

The next big step in his evolution came when Sleaze discovered the wonders of Drum and Bass with the likes of Jungle cakes, Tramatik and Harry Shotta.
With the tempo being roughly double that of hiphop and the same beautiful amen break from his childhood Sleaze’s already existing bars fit just right over the top of a skatty rhythm.
Soon he was out every weekend at events like PDM, LGS and Ravers Purge, eating up the music and branching out into other subgeneres.

At this time however he still considered himself as a rapper even landing a role in a film called Kensal Town about young rappers in NW10, where he created multiple original pieces, in character, especially for the Film.
Durning the production TN met other artist and Mc V4ly and soon after ended up at a Semtex free party that V4 was Mcing. 
After which he came to a realisation : Being a rapper is way easier than being an MC!

It’s one thing to have your bars written down and in your head but if you can’t freestyle then you’re gonna run out of written words after five minutes.

From that moment on Sleazebag was committed to improving as an MC, changing focus from multi-syllable complex rhymes to flow and cadence, bringing his shitty little mic with him to any event he attended with the hopes of plugging it in and getting to spit without ever seeing his name on a flyer.
This process annoyed many a promoter but helped him gain experience and friends in the scene.

Flash forward to today and Sleazebag is a resident Mc for the inclusive rave group Jungyals and Gays making a safe space at rave for everyone from any race, creed, gender or sexual orientation and highlighting gay and female talent who might otherwise be overlooked or discriminated against by other organisers.
He still gets giddy seeing his name on a flyer and being paid for his time is a huge bonus.

Sleaze is making and breaking his way into being one of the top MC’s of our time, perfectly encapsulating what it means to have original sound, with unique bars and a nostalgic sense of style n flavour. 

Book him now as your Master of Ceremonies for your next event whilst he’s still cheap 😉
