New Release: DJ Mutiny - Sign of the Times

DJ Mutiny
A: 'Sign of the Times'
AA: 'Here I Come'
Label: iBreaks
Release Date: Oct/ Nov 2008

"At iBreaks, we've worked really hard over the last couple of years to build up a strong label with a reputation for quality and have been proud to feature such talented and respected producers as J-Mekka, Peter Paul, Deibeat, and The Rogue Element. We are now very honoured to be able to add DJ Mutiny to this list, as he fires out a release to satisfy all breakbeat lovers...

First up we have 'Sign of the Times' – A track which mixes up the 2 renowned styles of this producer, original bass line breaks with funky soulful vibes. We have to admit, this one's a bit different (dare we say 'epic'), with its haunting arpeggiated keys, whale-proportioned synth riff, hypnotic vocal, kick ass drums and not-had-a-bath-in-weeks dirty bass, all combined in a way that will kick ass on the dance floor or play easy in your stereo.

On the flip we have the chunkier, house-ier, trackier 'Here I Come', which has been tearing up the iBreaks radio shows for a few months now , this track illustrates the journey DJ Mutiny has taken us on with his 'Concrete Soul' series (SFF) and brings in heavy hypnotic bass riffs over soulful samples and melodies, a true head nodder of a tune which is just toooo smooth...    A killer release from the Original Don.. DJ Mutiny"

New Release: Backdraft - Rock The Mic Ft. The Ragga Twins

Backdraft 

A: Rock The Mic Ft. The Ragga Twins 

AA: Pole Dancer 

AAA: Rock The Mic Inst. (Bonus Tune) 

Label: Passenger

Release Date: September 29th 2008 

Taken from the forthcoming album 'We Know Where You Live!' 

The wait is nearly over. The original Labrat's have been in their lair for the last 12 months working hard on their song writing skills and developing their sound, ready for the release of their debut longplayer released in November on Passenger. 

 

Paul and Karrie have been an integral part of the breakbeat scene for the past 6 years. Supported by everyone from Meat Katie to Rennie Pilgrim, FreQ Nasty to Tayo, this Stockport duo are one of Passengers most successful bands with a loyal and avid fanbase. Whether they are fusing ragga vocals with electro wobbles, reggae blessed grooves with syncopated beats or just having a laugh, trying to melt the globes bass cones… one thing is always obvious, they do it in style and with passion. 

 

On the first single from their album they have teamed up with Passenger's own The Ragga Twins for what could well be one of their finest vocal outings to date! As with all of the Twins work, this has a catchy 'call and response' chorus and some straight up vocal anarchy that will twist around in your head long after you have returned from the club. The flipside is true Backdraft madness… doing the rounds on dubplate for the past few months, this tune has a proven track record of 'doin da biz'. 

 

Ladies and gentleman, strap yourself in and get ready for the next 3 months of super dope, straight up cold lamping, head bopping beats that are fresher than a 4 finger gold ring rocked with iron flat fat laces. 

 

It's a sick world, be apart of it!!!

2. Original

3. Rico Tubbs RAVE rmx

Label: Botchit & Scarper

Release Date: Sept 1st 2008

3rd single taken from Atomic Hooligan's album 'Sex Drugs and Blah Blah Blah'

'Bold, brave and brash. This boasts more balls than Kevin Keegan's back yard– utterly essential'. IDJ Magazine (FRONT COVER)

Atomic Hooligan kick through the door once again at breakneck speed with another track lifted from their killer second album follow up 'Sex, Drugs and Blah Blah Blah...'

Breaking the genre boundaries once again Atomic Hooligan leave no stone unturned with the speaker busting 'Electro Aint Electro' slapping us silly with nasty glitched out acid tweaks and knees jerking bass!

A firm favourite from the Atomic Hooligan dj sets over the past year with many a folk anticipating the unleashing of the musical beastie...

Featuring the commanding electronically soaked vocals of Sim Wise, (Playboy -UK Cyber girl of the Year no less!) when she's says 'get your ass on the floor' you most certainly will!

On remix duties we've the ghetto house man of the moment Rico Tubbs, who has been busy getting people hot under collar with the bouncing bass led productions and genre spanning dj sets. Whipping the original in shape Rico has come up with a belting reworking.

We love to treat you at the house of Botchit & Scarper so as a bonus ball there will be a Beatport exclusive in the shape of a slamming 'Rave' mix from Rico Tubbs. Old skool style!
