Last Wednesday, @mc-slowie appeared on Rinse FM alongside an elite team of Bristol talents—Koast, Dash Villz, Jakes, and Gemmy—to showcase his new project. We caught up with him just moments before he touched mic for a revealing interview, delving into his career history, 'Snakes and Blaggers', Bristol grime, and what the future holds. We also invited him to freestyle over an epic, bass-heavy new instrumental from Cardiff producer @dubzta-beats called "Rain". Head here to read the interview:

Scottish grime innovator @polo-nis is set to release a self-titled, seven-track EP on 16 December. On standout song "Ultimate Survivor", available to stream exclusively above, the Greenock beat-maker pairs ritualistic drums with a haunting, repeated motif and a swelling bassline to create one of the darkest grime beats we've heard all year.

"Earthman From The Future" appears as the opening track on Russian grime producer @creep-n00m's forthcoming Jericho EP, out 14 December via Italdred.

Newcastle-born, Manchester-based Khabs (@khabss) and Preston's Rakjay (@rakjayuk) have crossed paths on "Rear View". This intense, cinematic collaboration will appear on @ChameleonAudio's new 'Volume 3' compilation, dropping next Saturday, 22 December.

"Rear View" is unlike anything we've previously heard from either of them. Introduced via a dark, seeping drone, the listener is later met with a concatenation of snappy brass, punctuative violins, pitched percussion, and a booming bassline. Grime at its finest.

Carlisle-born, Bristol-based producer @prizma-uk has teamed up with American label @lowtiderecordings to release a colossal 10" white label, limited to just thirty copies worldwide. Read more and pre-order your copy here: http://www.onceuponagrime.com/2018/12/premiere-prizma-recruits-killa-p-muhla.html

Teaming up with Brixton badman and past collaborator @killa-p-music on A-side "Still Here", Prizma scatters flourishes of plucked, eastern-sounding strings over stuttering hi-hats, choral bursts, and a dark and brooding bassline. Lyrically, the song celebrates Killa's longevity – even when the odds may seem stacked against him.

The vinyl's B-side, "6 Points", was co-produced by Prizma and fellow Too Much Collective resident @therealmuhla, and features vocals from Swindon star @grimsickersmusic and lesser-spotted Lewisham MC @officialkozzie – who returns here for his first new track in over two years. The track sees the two spitters deliver their signature flows over haunting vocal cuts, suspenseful strings, and a bass so deep and guttural it's guaranteed to tear up sound systems in the imminent future.

Elusive Bristol producer @kyo_uk's immersive new four-track EP 'Solar', slated for a 5 February release through Daffy and Thadeous Matthews' Pear Drops imprint, showcases two strings to his bow: wave music and two-step garage. Standout track "Mercury", a serene slice of escapism, finds soulful vocal cuts set against delicate synth arpeggios, a dynamic bassline, and slick percussion. Listen above, and read more here:

@rapture4d is a relatively new face to many in grime, but the Glaswegian has been putting in work for a good while now. The @plasmaabuse boss has enlisted in Bristol's @vexxymusic for the label's latest offering, the mesmerising and boundary-pushing "Wanna B with U". Rapture takes the original's formula and reimagines it as a choppier number, dominated by pummelling bass. Listen above.

The 'Wanna B with U' EP is out now.

OUAG Mix Series // #10 // DJ Citrus (Old School Vinyl Special)

Bristol's XOX (@xox_bristol) first made their mark musically in 2018, but the duo are far from beginners. The wifey riddim production powerhouse is in fact a new side project from Sepia — an acclaimed dubstep artist — alongside Arthur of Sheffield production trio Wölfe, best known for their UK funky output. Now with a strong back catalogue under their belt, including a feature on Pearly Whites' latest compilation, they're gearing up to drop their self-titled debut EP 'XOX' – conveniently slated for a Valentine's Day release.

On the second of the project's three tracks, "On My Mind" — now available to stream exclusively above — the Isley Brothers' 2003 classic "What Would You Do?" is meticulously chopped and transformed into a blissful slice of R&G perfection, complete with giddying pitch bends and luscious guitar licks.

XOX - EP

On My Mind

Premiere: XOX - On My Mind

Next up on genre-bending London label @synesuk is the four-track 'Porphyry' EP from Italian DJ/producer @fvbio. The project finds chirpy synth melodies paired with punctuative percussion inspired by baile funk, and sliding basslines similar to those used in early eskibeat.

You can stream the shuffling, 130BPM closer "U6" here ahead of its release. The 'Porphyry' EP drops next Monday, 3 June.

Porphyry

Premiere: FVBIO - U6

Up next on R&G-oriented imprint Pear Drops (@peardropsmusic) comes the 'Date Night' EP from North Londoner Grace (@grace-uk). The 19-year-old explores spatial intricacies on standout track "Voice Notes", available to stream exclusively below ahead of its release.

The track fades into existence before entering a phase of precision-cut vocals dusted over laser-guided percussion. The only respite from this surgically accurate flurry is the occasional drip, where Grace is just showing off his honed ability to create immense space in such a small period of time.

The 'Date Night' EP drops 25 June.

Date Night

Premiere: Grace - Voice Notes

Bristol-based label Italdred (@italdredrecords) is soon to be releasing a new compilation, 'Inflorescence'. Although there are stylistic themes that run across all eleven tracks, the range included remains diverse and challenging, pushing experimental sound forward with powerful results. 

Ahead of the compilation dropping on 28 June, you can listen to "Far Fetched" by rising Bristol producer Namaste (@namaste_uk) below. It's a high-energy mixture of dancing metallic chords, rolling bass, and a clean rhythm. The undeniable and aggressive drill-style bassline is offset by syrupy synth chords that deepen the build-up – only to drop hard with ringing chimes and sharp, snapping snares.

Inflorescence

Far Fetch

Premiere: Namaste - Far Fetch

Glasgow-based producers and LVLZ Radio residents @Rapture4D and @justRUDA have teamed up for their first collaborative EP, 'Nebula', slated for a 26 July release both digitally and on 12" heavyweight vinyl.

The project sees the 21-year-old partners in grime make their label debut on Scrub A Dub, the Scotch Bonnet sister label fronted by Glaswegian soundboys Mungo's Hi Fi, which has previously brought us iconic rave weapons like "Rules of the Dance" and Egoless's "Like A Nuclear Bomb".

Opener "Hubble Flow Dub", available to stream exclusively above ahead of its release, finds a juddering, seismic sub bass offset by mechanical bleeps and distorted drums.

Manchester-based platform Jah-Tek have been killing it for a while now, curating a wide variety of experimental sonic ventures on their YouTube channel. Now taking the next step and launching their own record label, they've welcomed rising Bristol-based producer Wisa to their catalogue, with the forthcoming double A-side "Tomb Raider"/"Temple Run" to serve as the label's first offering.

Wisa, not one to shy away from experimentation, has taken a sonic step into India with "Temple Run", sampling a classic Bollywood song and reinventing into a unique, grimy instrumental. The release drops 12 July, but for now you can stream "Temple Run" exclusively above.

Three grime greats team up over a menacing Ricochet production for dubplate special "Flat Line", first released back in 2010 as part of our all-star project 'The One Year EP'.

Bristol-based producer Prizma has followed up his previous 10” white label on Low Tide Recordings with another huge exclusive, "Youtdem".

Both Killa P and Long Range from Killa’z Army feature, striking back against the temptation to seek money and success through criminality and discouraging young people from being caught up in a dangerous environment that too often ends in tragedy.

Super-limited 10" vinyl copies of the release are now available to pre-order via the Low Tide Recordings website. Visit www.lowtiderecordings.com to secure a copy.

Youtdem

Premiere: Prizma - Youtdem (feat. Killa P & Long Range)

Next in line on fledgling label ESC_ is the 'LUVIN ME' EP from Nottingham wave producer Pholo (@pholouk), out 8 November.

Across four heady tracks, he explores his carefully crafted style of the growing wave sub-genre, including a powerful feature from Rapture 4D. The EP will be out exclusively on vinyl, and limited to 300 copies.

Standout song "Cry" can be exclusively streamed above ahead of its release. The track slowly simmers as it builds, adding layers of drifting, silky instrumentation. The blend of airy textures, echoing melodies and rumbling undercurrent finds a perfect balance, and the resulting cut is intoxicating.

LUVIN' ME

Premiere: Pholo - CRY

Bristol label @italdredrecords are back with another grime-influenced release set for 6th December. 
Drawing for smooth R&G cuts with bright, shimmering highlights comes 'Affection', a four-track EP from @kyo_uk and @d-a-f-f-y.

Stream our exclusive premiere of "Next 2 Me" here before the full release of 'Affection'. Beginning with a dampened guitar and drum loop, the track soon opens out into a soaring blend of sharp percussion, clean and classic bass, and elegant plucked melodies. Later, sparkling chimes and chopped yet delicate vocals marry with the warm aesthetic. The result is elegant and subtle, but still with that jumpy grime energy: a slice of R&G bliss.

Affection

Next 2 Me

Premiere: KYO & Daffy - Next 2 Me

Freeing up some of his creations from the last few years, @dunmanmusic is releasing an assortment of 14 refixes and edits as 'Dunman 001', out on 15th February.

Listen to our exclusive premiere of "Final Form" now before the release of the collection in full. Dunman chops together a red-hot refix that makes sure to keep the original track’s trademark blaring brass and stern string textures front and centre. Holding on to that integral layered instrumentation and organic warmth, Dunman still brings out a very different cut, seamlessly switching from swift syncopated rhythms and unpredictably stuttering percussion to weightier, more regular halftime measures. It’s a bold move to rework such an iconic song, but he pulls it off, adding a potent grimey twist to Sampa The Great’s already epic sound.

Dunman 001

Final Form

Premiere: Dunman - Final Form

@cocobolosound are on a roll at the moment. This time, they’ve drawn for some proper old-school energy from @swrbeats with his 'Bill Bak / Step Back In' double release. 

Listen to our premiere of "Step Back In" here. What begins as a moody 2-step cut quickly gets deeper and more complex. Rough oscillating bass, shifting sub lines and sharp, scattered rhythms are all bound together with clean liquid synths that seep across the whole sound. "Step Back In" is a perfect, nostalgic dark garage soundtrack for soaring in the shadows until the morning light.

Donation Dubs 010: July 2020

Simply Deep can be counted on to bring the heat with the artists they select. Now, its Dunman's turn to carry on that trend with the imminent arrival of his '99 Basslines' EP.

A co-founder of the ESC_ imprint with releases on In:flux Audio, Southpoint, Project Allout Records, 1Forty, Reloaded Sounds and more, Dunman’s no stranger to pushing the boundaries, embracing wide-ranging styles and sounds from the 140 spectrum. Listening to the '99 Basslines' EP gives you snapshots of his tastes, including elements of chugging, iron-clad dubstep, zoned-out atmospheric wave, sweet and silky-smooth R&G, and, of course, a heaped serving of powerhouse grime settings.

Adding the talents of MCs Deeks & Rame to Dunman's "War Fi Dem", which features on the EP in its own right, results in the brief but concentrated “Mad”. Their compact 16-bar flows lay over a warry beat that switches between growling, screw-face bass and the jerking rhythms of a swifter grime bouncer. “Mad” showcases another angle to an already formidable instrumental as the mic-men pass the vocals back and forth between them, infusing the track with the live organic energy that gives grime its undeniable potency.

Watch out for the release of the '99 Basslines' EP on 03/09/20!
