subb-an and adam shelton may be plenty busy with their own endeavours, but they still know how to bring it home to roost on their own one records. this time around they ve both turned to the same vocalist, isis salam, to deliver some insistent instruction atop their lean and mean productions. subb-an s -self control- is a cool and deadly workout that places the emphasis on the bass and places salam s classic speech at the front of the mix. shelton gets into a more jacking frame of mind on -only now-, whipping up a raw chicago flavour to devastating effect.
subb-an is back with one of the most hyped tracks to land on crosstown rebels in recent times. a collaboration with cedric from azari & iii under new moniker s.y.f (starving yet full), say no more shows the wunderkind producer on a wholly satisfying song-based tip. a killer weapon for any peak-time dancefloor, its a bumpy infectious ride with a wonky edge - steeped in the soul of cedrics vocals rolling over immaculately crafted grooves

the long running one records overseen by adam shelton and subb-an returns with it s 32nd release and first of the year, more importantly warp is the first full ep for the label from mr. ashique subhan! with a style very much cultivated across releases on spectral, crosstown rebels, visionquest, cocoon, a new record from subb-an will always be greeted with anticipation. lead track warp is a typically classy slice of effervescent house music, funnelling deep and dubby textures underneath a strident bassline and crisp, intricate drum programming. complementing this, tv is an equally charming production who s worming bass surges work well against the vocal contribution from jacob phono.

just be has been riding a wave of success in the past year and further cements this new incarnation with next installment for the mighty crosstown rebels. the massive dont make me wait for you, featuring jesse monroe is a wonky slice of pent up tension and swelling moods, reminiscent of proto garage house classics with a touch of modern slinkiness. as the diva vocal narrative builds with a dirty bassline groove, hypnotic echoes of dont make me wait for you propel the track higher to truly captivate the dancefloor. the more tangled 5am remix comes courtesy of rebel wunderkind subb-an
