MH010 - Pugilist & Another Channel - Fight Authority / Seek Truth (Out Now)

One of soundsystem culture's most fascinating elements is sound clash for sure. Comrades join a convention, presenting freshest treasures in friendly competition. 
Imagine this single as a peaceful battle between two heavy weight produbbers of the bass music scene. One like long-term 45seven hero Beam Up meets Bukkha on the other side debuting on this junglist's sunday paper of an imprint, shining in all his honour of his latest signings on System, Moonshine and Lion Charge. Them meet up to deliver two vibrating bombs of dubwise halftime Jungle bassiness: [...]

One Shot comes in less flooded and a 'lil cooler. But don't get taken by its ease, the riddim is heavy and will boil up any massive. Horns dubbed with smooth pressure, spiced by melodica blops, a massive strolling bassline and subtle percussions keeping listeners in suspension. Eyes up!

"Sounding tuff!" Om Unit
"Nice 1" Loxy
"Big up mate, these are sick" Tamen
"Mega dope release again!" Maltin Worf
"Loving the vibe on these, hitting on every level, some serious weight to them too, will definitely be supporting" Kyam
"Both sides are fat. Sounding super definately. No wonder with this mates." Jah Schulz
"Love the vibe as usual! There is some caribean, sono mundial, dancehall vibe on first side along roots and jungle. Love the B side , mega festive Jungle sound system session vibe." Marquis Son Sistem
"Super. great vibes without forced happiness. really good arrangements as well. the chopped amens on Double Trouble know how to wake up. One Shot got a nice dirty aesthetic, I Iike!" Dreadmaul
"Strong release, mega fat mix!" DJ Detox

A: Beam Up & Bukkha - Double Trouble (3m52s, 170BPM)
AA: Bukkha & Beam Up - One Shot (3m20s, 170BPM)

This 45RPM 7inch vinyl in stamped cardboard sleeves with catalogue number 45722 on 45Seven Unlimited will be released in March 2022 through friendly distribution by Suburban Trash, Unearthed, Toolbox and Hardwax.

Double Trouble (45Seven 45722)

Bukkha & Beam Up - One Shot (45722, 7", 2022)

It’s been five years since Khaliphonic #8, the various artists collection, “Sounds From The Well: Collection One.” Eight releases later we’re finally able to bring you Khaliphonic 16, “Sounds from the Well: Collection Two,” a next set of outer dubwise from across the diaspora of bass-heavy sound system music. While Collection One focused on a kind of Mediterranean and Near-Eastern dubwise topography, Collection Two explores psychological and emotional spaces instead, with a focus on experimentation and a mood that is decidedly deep and dark.

Titus 12 & MTF open the set with the “Koyla Rhythm,” heavy half-time atmospheric moves underpinned by serious bassweight.

J:Kenzo’s “Kotale” is a neck-snapping nod to the glory days of old school dub-hop with big drums and an even bigger 2-note b-line. 

Undefined deliver mesmerising organic 140 dub techno in fine style with “Signal,” demonstrating once again why they are unrivaled in the experimental dub arena. 

No one sounds like Gulls, and his hardware-centric approach to production and hands-on-desk mixing shine on the emotional “Immolation.”

As big fans of Lakker and his Bedouin Trax releases, we’re thrilled to have Eomac, opening the B-side with “Wildfire,” a genreless beast made of hard drums, swirling spectral flutes, and dark distortion.

Pugilist & Mystik come with “Arbitrary,” a shimmering orb of opalescent dub-techno refracting light from inner and outer realms that almost sounds alive. 

Though touchstones such as Jah Tubbys or African Headcharge might provide a reference, Marcus Anbessa’s soundworld is his own, and “Piros Tribe” is a deep roots missive from the ancients. 

Five-piece dub band Systemwide emerge from a long silence with “Warrior,” a piano and analogue synth bass-led behemoth recorded live in the studio and mixed by the one Alter Echo.

Al Cisneros of Sleep and Om fame closes the set with his inimitable approach to heavy, meditative roots dub with the low-slung “High Concentrate.”

Soundcloud clips always recorded straight from the vinyl with flat EQ so you know what you're getting. 

Releasing mid-October 2022. Vinyl only, no digital. Limited to 650 copies. Art & design by Polygon Press. Email zamzamsounds@gmail.com for more info.

I'm The Queen - (Om Unit's Bristol Edit)

🇫🇷
Pour bien débuter cette année 2023, Egregore Collective revient avec un second vinyle sur le label principal. Cette fois, nous plongeons au plus profond d’un océan d’accords réverbérés, de spirales d’échos et de tonalités apaisantes. Pour cette nouvelle incursion dans le domaine du vinyle, au titre approprié de “Tones and Echoes”, nous avons fait appel à 5 spécialistes de la dub musique sous ses formes les plus profondes.

C’est l’allemand Another Channel qui ouvre le bal. Avec des apparitions régulières sur des labels très respectés dans le genre tels que Moonshine Recordings ou encore Modern Hypnosis, il entame les choses en douceur avec une ballade dub apaisante.

Vient ensuite le viennois Mantsche, accompagné de son partenaire Bishop, avec un riddim plus profond, impactant et mélancolique, qui culmine en un second drop stepper qui vous fera skanker pour sûr.

La clôture de la face A est assurée par Masis, collaborateur récent d’Another Channel sur Moonshine Recordings. Il nous amène dans un registre plus profond et minimaliste avec un dub lo-fi ponctué de vocaux qui nous rappellent la destination finale de cette sortie ainsi que le titre du morceau : “Mount Zion”.

Sur la seconde face nous avons un roster 100% Toulousain, avec en premier l’énigmatique Stefan Dubs. Pilier de la scène illégale et underground de la ville rose avec le collectif Folklore, il décline une fois de plus sa production méditative, saturée, et parfois hypnotique, une ode aux fêtes dans le maquis.

On termine avec notre Stacktrace, qui entre deux bangers dancehall nous livre un track progressif, étincelant de shakers cliquetants et roulements de percussions, et comme à son habitude culminant en un second drop singulier avec une mélodie de bassline qui vous restera en tête.

Kicking off 2023, Egregore Collective is back with a second vinyl release on the main label. This time, we’re diving deep, spiraling down in a sea of reverberated chords and soothing noises. For this new foray in the physical realm, appropriately titled “Tones and Echoes”, we called upon 5 specialists of the deepest forms of dub music. 

Opening the record is Germany’s very own Another Channel. With regular appearances on respected labels of the genre such as Moonshine Recordings or Modern Hypnosis, he delivers a laid back dub ballad to kick things off smoothly.

Following up is Vienna based Mantsche, tagging along his mate Bishop with a deeper, stomping and more melancholic sounding riddim, that slowly builds up to a powerful stepper second drop that’s guaranteed to make you skank.

Closing the A side of the record is Masis, a previous collaborator of Another Channel on Moonshine Recordings. He takes us on a deeper tip with a dusty, minimalistic and lo-fi sounding dub punctuated by vocals chanting the name of the track as well as the final destination of this journey : “Mount Zion”.

On the other side, we have an all-Toulouse roster, starting with the enigmatic Stefan Dubs. Essential component of the illegal and underground scene here in Toulouse with the collective Folklore, he once again showcases his trademark meditative, saturated, and sometimes hypnotic aesthetic with another ode to forest raves in the maquis.

Rounding off the record is our own Stacktrace, taking a break from his dancehall bangers to go back to his roots and sign off on a highly progressive tune, sparkled with clicking shakers and drum rolls, and as always building into a very different second drop with a bassline melody that will stick to your head.

When it is about art and music we are fascinated by unexpected sweet spot combinations: When traditional concepts meet new ideas, when darkness meets light, when rough meets the smooth. 
Here at 45Seven Unlimited we enjoy our sweet and salty popcorn and we are always looking for exciting new blends that inject modern beats and basses into a half century of Dub history. This next incarnation of our bubbling melting dub tank hits right in this very honey pot with this double A side by Rainforest.

Bullet Riddim sets the pace for this plate with a nicely syncopated yet rolling groove with deep skanks, playful bass and some delicious drum switching. "My selectah is here to suit your heart desire ... and set your soul on fire" proclaims the vocal chop throughout the intro. And he is not wrong: Bullet is a rollercoaster of Jungle breaks, dubbed out Reggae horns, skanks and FX. Truly a "riddim so nice you gotta play it twice". [...]

Rainforest is transmitting from Mexico, has got a strong graffiti background and releases Drum & Bass music on labels like Shoot, Omni, Absys, Syhda, Monochrome and his own Breakbeat Rebelz. Known for the brilliant Jungle Is Our Dub 7" on 45Seven in 2016 which was almost label defining already, this new plate is even about to run them all out again. "Pull it up"!

Rainforest - Bullet Riddim (45723, 7", 2023)

It’s always a joy to release music from friends, and ZamZam 91 is our first collab with a dear one, Jim Coles AKA Om Unit. It’s impossible to frame the breadth and depth of such a storied career in bass music in just a couple lines- so suffice to say that releases over decades on a who’s-who of seminal labels including Exit, Fabric, Planet Mu and of course his own Cosmic Bridge have cemented his rep as an absolute force in production and DJing across any number of genres and sub genres. 

Coles’ roots in Bristol and deep love of dub and reggae - made wonderfully explicit on his recent Acid Dub Studies LPs -  come through strong on both sides. “The Canopy (Armageddon Style)” opens with ravey, arpeggiated synths worthy of Vangelis, punctuated by a brooding piano chord, building steadily into a dark and utterly apocalyptic steppers guaranteed to storm & batter down Babylon walls inside and out. 

“Mystic 808” is a deep meditation, a slow stepper that ices down the furious energy of the A side and drops the tempo to suit. Recalling the heady days of original late 90s/early 2000s UK Dub - as well as early dub techno - stabs and melody caress, restrained percussion swims and multiplies in reverb and echo, orbits locked to the gravitational force of the massive and truly timeless bassline. Proper sound system material that will satisfy the heart and soul long after the dance is done.

Strictly limited to 800 copies for the world. No digital, no repress. Art, design & screen print by Polygon Press. Mastered by Sam at Precise, Pressed at Third Man. Releasing 12 May 2023.
