Dirty Dubster Bazza Ranks enlists Peppery’s able toasting skills for the new single and they’re both so moneysupermar…oohh – my bad – So Futuristic. What starts out as a dancehall riddim winds up at junglist speed after the bridge as the pair accelerate towards the bashment system and it only remains to sort out a video. A video for a track entitled So Futuristic? Concept-wise it’s an

BAZZA RANKS feat. PEPPERY: So Futuristic (2017)
DR KING & YT: TV Baby (Remixes) (2015)
I feel like a bit of reggae. Do you feel like a bit of reggae?Although…it’s not very Christmassy is it? Dr King & YT get round the problem of a December release date for summer music on TV Baby by addressing the seasonal pastime of watching hours of utter bollocks on the box – “It no right, fi watch TV from morning to night…you definitely know you need to sort out ya life.” My

DIRTY DUBSTERS feat. CHIP FU & SCREECHY DAN: Big Sound (2015)
Rating:
They’ve been so busy with other people’s stuff on their Irish Moss label that it’s been a while since we’ve had any actual Dirty Dubsters material. Fear not though as they make a massive return with single Big Sound and news of a new LP – Special Request. And they’ve only got veteran NY reggae-hip-hop luminaries Chip Fu of Fu Schnickens and Screechy Dan on board some

MAX RUBADUB & GENERAL TRIX: Sweet Like You (2014)
Is it Max Rubadub featuring General Trix or General Trix featuring Max Rubadub. Or General Trix and Max Rubadub. Or Max Rubadub and General Trix come to that. I dunno. The promo player suggests the first, the artwork suggests the second, Juno suggest the third and Max Rubadub’s soundcloud suggests the last. One thing is certain, Sweet Like You‘s lively tribute to Trix’s missus is a sweet digi

CAPITOL 1212 feat. M.A.D: Worldwide Echo (2014) + video
“Don’t hurt your head if you never get what you expect” urges superstylin’ former Groove Armada collaborator M.A.D. as the storm surge of 140 bpm breaks n bass that is Worldwide Echo, hits your ears. Then, during the occasional roots reggae breakdown, this very same M.A.D. encourages you to describe how the “big sound echo” makes you feel (like he doesn’t know) and slyly intones the

CUT LA VIS feat. MYSTRO & MR MELODY: Little Way Different (2013)
Cut La Vis covers Erroll Dunkley’s reggae classic Little Way Different on the latest Irish Moss drop and like all good covers he changes it a bit because – well – every man do his thing a little way different right? Out goes Dunkley’s skipping reggae drums and any sense of the track being a stoned late night swayer and in comes a punchy 88 bpm break and rapper Mystro with a rhyme

CAPITOL 1212 feat. SEROCEE: Makin Disturbances (2013) + video
Rating:
I can’t imagine Serocee needed much persuasion to get on the mic for this massive skanking hip-hop beat from Capitol 1212. Makin Disturbances‘ early September release date doesn’t quite open it up to the public in time for the UK’s second greatest carnival this weekend but rest assured you’re likely to hear it anyway since the promos have gone out. I say ‘hear it’ – feel it is

GARDNA feat. PARLY B (prod. DR MEAKER): Big Bad Sound (2013) + video
The latest release on Dirty Dubsters‘ Irish Moss label is the big bad sound of southwestern bass-city, Bristol, UK, teaming up with…er – Doncaster. While Bristol has a globally recognised association with bass music, Doncaster has brought the world a bit of horse-racing and Jeremy fucking Clarkson. Not that Bristol MC Gardna is holding that against Donny MC Parly B – clearly, since he invited him

FLATLINE feat. WERD2JAH: Slow Down (2012)
Flatline are another signing to Dirty Dubsters’ Irish Moss label, and on Slow Down they deliver a future dub bassline with enough clout to terminate the beating hearts in any ribcages not protected by a safety cushion of low-frequency-resistant, spongy, tarry lungs cultivated through years of ganja abuse. Not to be outdone a host of remixers (the Dubsters among them) compete to up the tempo and dark the whole thing up in a crazy genre
