After a self-imposed break from the stage to spend more time in the studio, Bristol's premier rave wrecking rap/dubstep collective Central Spillz return with a new line-up and new project; 'The Overspill'. 

Since 2011's 'Space Travel' album, producer Superisk and vocalist Shadz (now signed to PMR Recordings as Javeon) have departed for pastures new. Ably filling the gap is one of UK hip hop's best kept secrets, Sirplus, who links with original members Redders, Strikez, Skillzee and Koast to form the new-look 2013 Spillz.

Best known for their raucous live shows, which have seen them perform across the UK and beyond, including bookings at Glastonbury, Outlook, Boomtown Fair, Nass and Nozstock festivals, the Central Spillz boys are no slouches in the studio either. The collective’s unique blend of hip-hop lyricism and beats that recall a misspent raving youth has seen the guys collaborate with bass-music luminaries such as Starkey (for a release on Ninja Tune), Joker, Guido and Dev79, while as individuals they’ve notched up releases on labels including Black Butter, HENCH, Lobster Boy, Audio Zoo and Ramajam. 

'The Overspill' is a collection of songs recorded over the life of the collective, and includes remasters of their earliest demos alongside some brand-spanking-new bangers. Collaborators on the mixtape include Gemmy, former Spillz man Interface, Rossi B & Luca, Temo and Isola Dusk.

With the mixtape ready to roll and a batch of new videos in the pipeline, Central Spillz are now ready to take it back to the place they know best – the stage. Preferably with a bottle of rum and a pint of Sambuca...

Durkle Disco is a Bristol-based record label with bass at its very core. First conceived in 2011 as a place where grime, garage, hip-hop and dubstep could combine and intertwine - with just as much attention paid to the MCs as the producers - the label has since evolved to become a natural home for the new strains of instrumental bass-driven music coming from Bristol’s next unstoppable wave of production talent.

Lamont, OH91, Otik, Lemzly Dale, Daffy & Gundam are just some of the producers to have released with the label in the past. As a mark of the respect Durkle holds within the music world, the label’s tracks have undergone the remix treatment from some of bass-driven music’s biggest names. Zed Bias, Kahn, Starkey, Hi5Ghost & Caski have all given some of the imprint’s finest moments their own individual twist.

With recent releases from Mani Festo, Unkey, Young H, Vern & Milla, and Denham Audio, the only Disco worth doing your thing at this year is the Durkle one…
