RCEP-008
Release Date: Early November 2021
Format: 12" 45RPM
Tracklist:
A-1 Element feat. Nazamba "Freedom"
B-1 Element "Xpander part 1"
B-2 Element "Xpander part2"


The 11th single on the Riddim Chango imprint features a dub poet from Kingston, Nazamba. He dropped a debut single on The Bug's Pressure label which followed by a full album on Dubquake Records. (Run by Europe's leading soundsystem crew, O.B.F) The riddim is made by Element who is a co-founder of Riddim Chango records.
On the A-side, Nazamba's earth-shattering and vexed poetry tells a true story of black oppression and the minimal tech-stepper riddim accelerates the power of the dub-poet. On the flip side, “Xpander” is instrumental stepper track influenced by 90s UK militant digital dub. It is built with layered Oberheim's classic synth sounds and solid drums and bass. Low-end focused part2 has lesser elements with greater energy in a classic dubwise manner.
The 3 tracks on the 12” have been soundsystem approved for promised bass weight and balance.

LIFE IN DUB PODCAST #35 ADRIAN SHERWOOD hosted by Steve Vibronics

Dusk was falling as they'd entered the space, ready to embrace everything that came their way. The pulsing sounds had absorbed them from the moment they set foot inside; what came after felt like a whirlwind, their memories becoming lost in a haze of sweaty bodies and enchanting rhythms. Bright light greeted them when they left, feeling as though they'd been chewed up and spat back out - yet it was nothing they wouldn't relive over and over again.

Siamese Twins' co-founder Sunju Hargun has been making moves over the last couple of years, both solo, as part of Mogambo and with the releases on his Bangkok-based imprint. After gracing the label a few times with the more downtempo side of his creations, Sunju makes his way to Taiwan's 禁JIN for two tracks that are guaranteed to have you drifting up into the cosmos. Backed by two remixes from Barcelona's Marc Pinol and Taipei's own Initials B.B., Sunju's originals are an ode to the sounds of classic trance and acid, with both set to light up dancefloors across the world.

PREMIERE: Sunju Hargun - Chale [禁JIN]
