I recently created a remake of Benga's classic tune Skank. Skank is such a seminal track that has stood the test of time and continues to slap wherever it gets played.

Benga used Music 2000 as a crucial tool in his early music production process. The PlayStation video game offered a wide range of virtual instruments and sound effects, which he used to experiment with different sounds and ideas. The accessibility and creativity offered by Music 2000 allowed him to develop his own unique style, characterised by heavy basslines, intricate rhythms, and futuristic soundscapes.

In this VIP, I went to great lengths to find and recreate the original samples used in the track. This approach has allowed me to bring a new level of authenticity and respect to Benga's classic sound.

Described by many (for example, Sam Binga) as looking like Scouse icon Paddy The Baddy, only soft, floppy-haired maverick Fonzo can certainly pack a punch with the tunes, la.

This two-tracker on Bristol’s No More Mailouts sees the wannabe UFC fighter steal a bike made of 160bpm electro before doing a sick wheelie on it la (Flake), before blending jungle breaks with proper steppers bass on ‘Lethargy’, jortameanlike? Sound.

Both tunes have an air of understated strength and focused intent, similar to Jimmy Corkhill mid-skag-acquiring scheme. And both tracks will incite the kind of dancefloor reaction that could make Steven Gerrard punch a DJ in a drunken fracas—and if we’re lucky, that DJ might even be Sir Hiss.

Please note: Fonzo is not scouse but should certainly consider it. La.

Fonzo - Flake

Lead track from our forthcoming Worst Behavior, Vol. 4 compilation, out August 18th!

Samurai Breaks - Oshee

The season 2 finale is here. In classic Kwengerz style this tune pairs deep & nostalgic instrumentation with raw breakbeats. Of course when that bass kicks in the nostalgic feel turns into pure darkness with relentless warps & phat beats. Big ups to Yung Yellowing for letting Kwengerz  sample his tune to make this one.

No more free downloads! This riddim is available to purchase on Bandcamp.

Helping to shape the sound of the imprint, this beautiful 2 track project tells the story of the birth and death of a creature characterised by bright, energetic sound design and sparse rolling breakbeats that take the club-driven sounds of drum & bass and jungle and morphs them into an advanced life form.
