Two new heavyweight tracks from the Welsh bass underground. “Something New” rolls in with a classic, catchy laidback post-summer vibe, while “Roulette” is aimed more at the dancefloor with a build up and drop which is stopping people in their tracks and getting rewinds all over the shop.
The release is number four in a five part series of coloured 10″ vinyl, strictly limited to 350 copies each. All vinyl are coloured and numbered, with hand screen-printed sleeves. And each vinyl order includes a download code for instant MP3 / FLAC / WAV format. Now you can’t get much fairer than that!

High Rankin’s label, Suicide Dub, is releasing their second compilation of featured artists on ‘This is Suicide Dub volume 2′. I’m not a big fan of Dubstep or Drumstep, so the compilation doesn’t really take my fancy. But after taking a listen to the tracks, my ears perked up when I heard Take A Lick by Hostage. Heavy drum patterns and breaks, with stabbing synth lines, rolling in at 130BPM by the sounds of it. I like it!
Another massive track coming in at 130, Wheel Come From by Evolve Or Die is taken off ‘This is Suicide Dub volume 1′. Came out a while ago and some how passed me by, but will giving it some play time. Download it now and enjoy!
Mumdance has a new grime release called “Tarahtid EP” coming out Nov. 29th on No Hats No Hood. Here’s a little exert from the press release.
“The “Tarahtid EP’ showcase’s Mumdance’s diversity and confidence as an artist, fusing his own signature sounds while referencing the golden ‘Eski’ years of early naughties grime. The results are a unique take on a genre which is clearly close to his heart and end up sounding like what might have been had Wiley decided to veer slightly more to the left during his recent foray in to more conventional dance music.”
