Its gonna be a banger!
This weekend in Wigan: Deadbeat Gash & Hadean Takoever Pure for a night of bass heavy sonics and Sillyness. Don’t Panic! have been flying the bass flag up north for years now, we’ve been up once before and they’ve returned the favour, and now we’re back to show those guys what us Southerners are made of (and it aint sugar, spice & all things nice!)
Check out their Facebook Event for more info.
Dankle seems to be trying something different in this EP, with opener Absolutely containing a subtle sample of War by Edwin Starr before dropping into some bleepy/wonky techno. Though it’s the collab with Deadbeat that really had us moving, with an incredibly warm bassline sitting under an infectious 90’s house vocal. Out now on Off Me Nut Records and at £2.50 it’s a steal.

The latest EP on Trouble & Bass is from NYC based Doctor Jeep, a relative newcomer on the scene though one who has been making waves. Opener Eccies has a decent 90’s throwback sample reminiscent of early rave tunes, though it’s title track Vortex that really got us going, with its soca style beat and heavy warbling bassline. A solid EP, out now from all the usual places.

Phatworld return with this 70% vibes, 100% serious EP and from the off you know this one’s a biggun. All four tracks are bangers in their own right, from the Sheffield lilt of MC LY on the intro of Burnt In The Street making way for that wonky Off Me Nut bass. Second track Big Hoovz starts a little like Constant Guy, with cheeky guitar plucks preceding the mental drop. Zengagirls sums the EP up perfectly with its vocal sample ‘get on the dance floor’ telling us all we need to know, as does the final track’s ‘turn it up’ blending in nicely with MC K-Dot. At £2.50 for 4 tracks it’s a steal.

Three of Slick Shoota’s best tunes get the VIP treatment for this free EP, combining juke with jungle and bassline. Every track is a banger from the title track with its mental mashing up of footwork with 4×4, through the lush reece’s and breaks on Jungle Chamber VIP and rave-classic female vocal stylings of Glory Daze VIP. This is how you do it!

Chip Butty Records celebrate their second year as a label with a free compilation, featuring tunes from In The Face’s residents Deadbeat (a chopped up VIP of Chicago6am) and Hadean (new stomper aptly titled). Other highlights include Thorpeys bassline house influenced Dub Plate and label boss Dr Cryptic’s gritty Lax. Download it free from their Facebook page here.

The latest mix from Bristol based Audiogutter takes us on a journey through mutant bass via electro house, featuring some seriously heavy tunes, many from the man himself, or forthcoming on his new label Under The Surface Records. Dirty basslines and hard hitting beats combine to make this mix worth a listen.

The new mix from Drum & Bass legend DJ Die showcases his new Gutterfunk label incredibly well. This forward thinking bass imprint combines dnb with juke, jungle, dubstep, acid and more and really shows us what innovation is all about.

Kanji returns with a long awaited new mix, to celebrate him joining Methlab Management. This couldn’t have come at a better time as we haven’t had an official mix for a while, and this is packed full of exclusive tunes & edits from the man himself & others. Kills it.

I never quite know what to say about DJ Sega, as he kind of resides in a category all of his own. This mix is packed full of his usual mashups of pop/dance/whatever he feels like tunes overlaid with his trademark bass & breaks. Bouncy, fun and full of party vibes, I feel they don’t always work but when they do it makes it all worthwhile.

Zebra Katz is making waves, after last years fantastic debut on Jeffrees with the game changing Ima Read (an excellent new version of that included on this by the legend that is Busta Rhymes). Hip hop this original should be illegal, and with this mixtape he sets the bar very high. A big part of that originality is the music behind the lyrics, some of which he produces himself, but the rest is from the likes of our friends over at the Senseless camp, with Lenkemz and Deville supplying some excellent beats. It doesn’t take a genius to realise just how huge Zebra Katz is going to be.
