GRIME & DUBSTEP

Digital (feat. Juiceman)

Digital (feat. Juiceman) (Alternative Mix)

16 years ago in basements and bedroom studio’s in south London, a new sound was born….
Mala was part of the music revolution which came to be known as ‘dubstep'.

DMZ, the label was created and 1 year later a bi-monthly event at Brixton’s Mass began.
Both label and event became pillars of the dubstep scene.
A scene built on dub-plates and vinyl only productions. played on heavyweight sound systems.

16 years later, Mala has decided to re-issue his back catalogue digitally for the 1st time.

All tracks have been re-mastered by the original engineer: Jason @ Transition Mastering, and still sound as heavy, warm & timeless as the initial vinyl only releases.

Air Time

Deep Medi - ever the purveyors of supreme bassweight - have had a busy year to date. Haymakers from Kahn (Over Deh So/Abbatoir) and Gantz's Witch Blues EP rubber-stamped their intentions from early on, and bits from Jack Sparrow, Kaiju and K Man have kept the ball rolling steadily into Q3. Now Mala and co reveal their strongest hand to date.

MEDiLP011 is a collaboration of gargantuan proportions. Kahn, Commodo and Gantz sell out of stock quickly enough in their own rights; now the styles of all three get tumble-dried together in a melange of Bristolian and Middle Eastern sub-low. "Unmistakable" is just one example out of the six - an earthy deep roller anchored by a hush-hush grumble of a sample and, of course, bottommost low-end.

August 28th is the release date. Eye up the vinyl and digital versions on pre-order before it's too late.

Wisdom Teeth label head K-LONE revives his Wych imprint for an essential two-tracker of bleeping, melodic halfstep. 

Following on from the critically acclaimed 'Old Fashioned' EP - released last year on DJ Parris's Soundman Chronicles imprint - WYCH002 sees the young Londoner exploring his formative roots in dubstep and grime - albeit from a startlingly fresh, forward-facing perspective. The tracks loosely recall the off-kilter rhythms of early James Blake and Joe, but their psychedelic melodies have as much in common with the contemporary experiments of Leif, Peverelist and Duckett. 

Hotly tipped by dubstep heads Commodo, V.I.V.E.K, Boofy & Kursk. Forthcoming May 11th on 12" vinyl & digital formats, with hand-illustrated artwork by Annie Foyster.

My CD was wearing out, so I decided to upload it to the only music provider I use. I do not own any right over the uploaded tracks. If you do not want these tracks to be publicly available (which is a shame because they're really good), then please, drop me a line at adubsteplover@gmail.com, and I will make the playlist private. Thank you.

Apparently, my CD album was one of the first 100 copies, so it's missing track 8 (Benny Ill vs DJ Hatcha - Highland Spring [Tempa.]).
