Bakongo comes proper with two stripped back drum workouts for TRULE’s 10” series. UK Funky pioneer Roska has been making great percussion tracks under his Bakongo alias for some time now. On Thirteen/Level Cowbell he continues this with two rugged, skeletal drum tracks with tough, minimal bass and the faintest trace of texture in there that absolutely demand to be moved to.

Stefàn Dubs is part of the Folklore crew operating out of Toulouse, and is also the producer behind the excellent Maquis Son Sistem records. Stefàn Dubs and Folklore have been pushing their own style of contemporary, dub influenced dance music spanning Garage, Techno, House and Jungle. The Spring Tones EP is a perfect fit for Trule, drawing on these influences to create something new while remaining focused on dance floor functionality.

TRULE presents its first release and the latest from Deadboy, the Klint EP. Four swung out club focused tracks exploring the meeting point between techno and UK garage music. Deadboy uses a stripped back percussive sound palette with shuffling drums and a hands on hardware approach to create four individual, jacking, crisp joints for the dancers.

On the second TRULE release Al Wootton (AKA Deadboy) drops his first ever record under his own name. Traces of dub, UK garage and techno inform the forward leaning, club-focused sound.
On SELAH, Al creates a driving steppers rhythm shot through with dub manipulations and UK swing.
OMEGA and UNTITLED on the B side continue in the percussive, tracky, swung techno vein of the first TRULE record.

Bash (AKA Julio Bashmore) graces Trules fifth release and the first in a series of ten inch white label singles with Jubilee, a sub heavy, minimal, UK garage dub that manages to marry the sparser techno vibes of his Conch releases with the subtle anthemic quality of his other alias. A real dance floor sneak bomb.
Al Wootton provides a two-stepping dub remix on the B-side, chopping the drums and echoing everything out to infinity.

Something for all the dancers.
