Dreadsquad's output has been prolific but always full of quality. To date, they have released four mixtapes and two albums, in 2005 and 2009, and nine singles between 2009 and 2012, covering an array of genres through both the original tracks and the remixes, cooperating with Reggae and Hip Hop artists from all over the World. As well as performing hundreds of gigs in Poland, they have also played all around Europe and North America.

Early 2012 kicks off with yet a new release, delivering nothing but top quality with 16 tunes as varied as they come! Indeed, The Riddim Machine is as colorful as you may expect it from the lineup of the featured artistes:

True blue Jamaicans such as the "Deejay Daddy" U Brown, Ward 21, Perfect Giddimani and Scarra Mucci are as well representing as Germany's Ska and Dancehall veteran Dr. Ring Ding, the Britain based Lady Chann, El Fata, Tenor Fly and Blackout, and Kasia Malenda, Poland's answer to Adele and Amy Winehouse -- to name but a few.
You will find a dynamic mix of authentic Jamaican riddims and styles with modern bass-heavy genres from a producer at the top of his game -- a variety that spans from old school Ska to the digital computerized style of the eighties and from heavy electronic Dub to rootsy Rock Steady.
On top of that, Dreadsquad shows off amazing remixing skills -- foremost in the atmospheric dubby reworking of the infamous Polish 'suicide tango' To Ostatnia Niedziela, using the vocals of the original 1936 recording by Mieczysław Fogg.

The Dreadsquad sound is always lively and full of energy, making you want to hit the dance floor and have fun -- music is their life and their passion, and you can hear that in the music.

The Riddim Machine is released on digital, vinyl and CD formats on 10/03/2012 through the Superfly Studio label.

As I got older, I realised that there were no real winners and there were no real losers in psychological warfare. But there were victims and there were students.

It wasn't David versus Goliath, it was a pendulum eternally swaying from the dark to the light and the more intensely that the light shone, the darker the shadow it cast.

It was never really a battle for me to win, it was an eternal dance. And like a dance, the more rigid I became, the harder it got. The more I cursed my clumsy footsteps, the more I struggled.

So I got older and I learned to relax and I learned to soften and that dance got easier. It is this eternal dance that separates human beings from angels, from demons, from gods and I must not forget, we must not forget that we are human beings - Hi Ren

Superfly is a label based in Poland founded by Marek Bogdanski aka MMF, co-founder of Dreadsquad – one of the best known Polish soundsystems.
It is focused mostly at heavy bass music which include Reggae, Dub, Dubstep, Drum'n'Bass, Garage and Breakbeat.

Except releasing music as digital downloads they try as well to keep vinyl culture alive.

Their first international release was „Dreadsquad – Caravan” which is Duke Ellington's jazz standard in a fresh reggae/dub version with 5 remixes, each moving further away from the original. It got very good feedback:

„Tippa top version of one of my favourite jazz tunes - love the original, mega slick production from Dreadsquad as always. Nice selection of remixes too, something for everyone. Specifically, Turntable Dubbers have nailed the re-rub. Will be playing this a lot”
Ben Menter aka Mr Benn aka Mr Blennd

„Killer new production ! 6 versions of Caravan on one 12" ??? Each moving further away from the original. B-side rules - all great cuts with Turntable Dubbers and Kwazar mix killing it ! Big ! Upstate say so !”
Upstate Rockers

Next releases form Superfly will be cooperation between Dreadsquad and top Jamaican and UK artists such as: Ward 21, Tenor Fly (Freestylers, Pendulum, Congo Natty), Lady Chann (Warrior One, South Rakkas, Sticky), U Brown (Gorillaz). Also lot of Dubstep, Breakbeat and UK Funky remixes is ready to be released.
