nice price deal !!! second drop from grievous angel this week, making a huge impact with a shockout vip version of naphtas soundclash 1, backed with his supremely odd grime stepper harpy. in whats turning out to be quite an immense week for releases from the grime/step scene, grievous lords it up high with his mix of naphtas junglist soundclash, forging the sort of darkside bass lick that sends shivers down your spine, and welding it into a hard stepping garage framework indebted to the legacy of steve gurley and el-b. absolute bomb track! on the flipside gas wicked harpy sees the light of day, making nods to wileys early grime/post garage reductions with a splintered percussive palette and agitated synth stabs balanced by a powerful dubstep bassline.

this is a welcome return from sheffield-based producer grievous angel who has been known for his slew of edits and live remixes - whether it be grime, dancehall, house or uk funky. having done this for keysound label-mates dusk & blackdown as well as random re-works of productions from artists like wiley (check 2009s ice rick refix under the alias of bubblez), grievous angel has got an eye for recycling existing ideas but is no slouch when it comes to his original productions either.

grievous angel steps back up to the plate, fresh from smashing the summer with his loser and move down low versions. ripe sense of timing as well - revisiting the seminal grime rydim ice rink from 2003 for rhythmic guidance looks as dapper as savile row on rascal right now.the originals cold, arhythmic arcade game derived brutalism is reborn for the late 09 in 2 sensual and smart funky compatible versions.

originally released in 2008!!

cool mixture of folk, rockabilly, blues, and alt-country

nice price deal !!!

kode9s grasp on the throat of bass music in 2010 is almost unparalleled. his trend setting record label, hyperdub, is in its sixth year of viral contagion, hes become a published author on the theory of sound abuse and sonic frequencies being used as weaponry in his book >sonic warfare< and his production work has mutated from an almost simplistic marriage of beats and sine waves into a fusion of dancefloor ebonics and discordant synths!
