We are very excited to present the Steppin Up EP.

Since Steppers Club has grown with the help of support from more prominent figures in the scene, the label now wants not only to deliver the highest quality garage from the genres most established names, but also those emerging from the underground.

A year in the making, this project showcases the producers that we feel are destined for bigger things, with a selection of dancefloor ready UKG bangers that we are sure will make waves across the scene.

Surprised

There is no doubt that this year has been somewhat of a storm for Deadly Habits, who returns to Four40 with open arms here for his brand new ‘Past North’ EP. Following from a tasty string of singles and releases, this is the perfect way to summarize just how much we enjoy the Deadly Habitz sound.  The project consists of four storming originals, kicking off with the high energy drum rolls and exciting percussive switches of ‘The Night’, which combines blissful subs with choppy vocals for a real party. Next, we dive into the xylophone like melodic chimes of ‘Love It’ which adds a more colourful element to the release.   Following this we land in the more nostalgic chord switches and choppy, 2-step style drum maneuvers of ‘Calling’, which strips back the heavier drum work to employ more clicky drum set. This is then followed up with a tasty finale through the throwback flavours of ‘90’s Vibes’. This one does what it says on the tin, with crunchy drum expanses and shimmering electronic melodics being sewn throughout the composition from start to finish.   What a way to round up the year from one of 2019’s stand out UKG producers!

Downplay is proud to welcome back Royal Flush to the label with their brand new release, ‘Need You’.

‘Need You’ powers up with plenty of shuffle and swing to it’s rhythm as it develops into a rave-ready bass-heavy jam, complete with diva samples and sprightly keys to get the party really jumping.

‘Somebody New’ raises the tempo higher for a quality percussive workout that makes expert use of it’s cheeky R&B vocals before dropping into a tasty bass flex-out that will heat up any discerning dancefloor.

Label mate Kobe JT steps up to provide the remix, turning the title track into a tidy little 4X4 roller that will undoubtedly see plenty of airplay, showcasing exactly why the producer is one to watch in UK Garage right now.

Following a cracking launch EP that showcase their carefully-selected, finely-tuned roster in all it’s glory, exciting UKG startup Steppers Club return with their next celebrated, vintage tinge of nu-skool Garage hedonism. That first acclaimed VA offering, entitled First Steps, which featured label stalwarts Sensa, Oppidan, Minista, Sam Deeley and head-honcho Zefer, saw a metric tonne of support from across the underground, with premieres from us here at On The Wax, a track host from our friends over at The 3000 Network, an exclusive Instagram interview and feature with the guys over at Bass Hive and an in-depth appearance on Meltout Crew’s Reprezent Radio show. All in all, a stellar, groove-infused showing from an incredibly solid, norm-defying platform that’s still very much in its infancy.

Now, and epitomising everything we love about the current UKG revival, label boss Zefer presents his debut 2-tracker, returning to the fold after a slew of sick recent releases, the most recent of which was the locked, stocked and smoking ‘Praise Ya’ drop on Beastwang, who they themselves have overwhelmingly cemented their stance as a real platform to watch, serving up seriously special cuts from the likes of Champion, MPH, Tenshu, Earthnut, Kobe JT, Higgo, Zero and plenty more. 

As its basis, this new 2-track offering from the Steppers Club bossman is uplifting, inherently joyful, sunshine-etched and positively teeming with refined musicality, all facets we instantly look for from both artist and label. Wonderfully adept at working with both original vocalists and carefully-selected, pinpoint samples, the first track sees Zefer utilise the simply gorgeous, velvet vocals of Charlotte Meldrum on ‘Let Me Know’, a 4x4 NUKG lick that provides a sharp glance in that vintage back-mirror, whilst also hammering down that modern aesthetic. It’s stunning writing all round, from both Zefer and Meldrum, with all that flittering, patterned instrumentation providing a gleeful backdrop for the vocals to go to town on.  Has UKG ever sounded so good?

The B-side, ‘Sugar N’ Spice’, is slightly more dancefloor-focused, but it still retains every bit of rhythm, artistic prowess and gilded marksmanship of the aforementioned first track, and we’re delighted to be exclusively hosting it here at OTW. Whereas Meldrum’s vocal hooks take centre-stage on ‘Let Me Know’, Zefer’s keen ear for sampling allows his mesmerising production to full roll out here, experimenting with a plethora of instruments and percs, showcasing his funky aptitude in all its glory. Overall, another stellar showing from both Steppers Club and Zefer - long may it continue.
