It’s not often that you get a two track release featuring four established solo artists, but that’s exactly what Banana Stand Sound are offering with their latest 180gr 12” outing. As their slogan suggests, there’s always bass in the Banana Stand, and this release from OldGold, The Widdler, Helktram and Karnage is no exception.

The A side comes from none other than social media rascal and co-owner of Silent Motion Records, Oldgold, and dubstep community pillar The Widdler. When he’s not up to no good doing things like spoiling the last Star Wars movie on Facebook, Rolando, – aka OldGold – produces a raw, no holds-barred iteration of dubstep which can be heard in his collaboration with American dubstep pioneer and legendary TwitchTV streamer The Widdler.

A heavily processed sample in typical Widdler style from an episode of Star Trek attempts to prepare you for a journey into ‘another dimension’ in the intro of Imperial, but it’s difficult to be prepared for the onslaught of tribal drums, lush chords, and of course, some of that Banana Stand bass that follows. The track makes exceptional use of tension and release, and empty spaces; something to be expected from a track involving veteran The Widdler; but if you’ve been following Oldgold’s music during his rise to prominence in the last few years, you’d know it’s something he makes good use of in his own productions as well.

On the flip side we see the two Encrypted Audio signees from Japan – Helktram and Karnage – team up on ‘Rat Catcher’; an almost psychedelic, spooked out skanker with a militant rhythm and a gorgeous lead melody; reminiscent of the creepy tones of everyone’s favourite Pokémon graveyard, Lavender Town. With springy reverberations and wobbly sub basses, it’s what you’d forsee from such a powerful combination of producers, and it’s living proof that the Japanese bass music scene is alive and well – newcomer Helktram is definitely one to watch in 2016, and the more established Karnage is still going strong.
