BOOMKAT SINGLE OF THE WEEK
*LIMITED COPIES WITH SPRAY PAINTED INSERT* Sick sublow dubwonk business on a brand new label from a mysterious camp we have much love for, with four brilliantly executed versions on the deeper bass vibe. 'Silvah Bullet' may initially cause a bit of 33 or 45 (???) confusion but once you've settled into the sturdy halfstep swing you'll be swallowed up whole by the claustrophobic bass undercurrents. From here on in it's a mission deep into the echo chamber, with 'Let it slide' and 'Mi eyez' working on a King Tubby-meets-Disrupt in Chapeltown kinda vibe, proper dark wobbling dubs with fine cut double-time percussion alleviating them from the pits of wobble hell. This is a unique take on a sound that it seems everyone is taking a crack at, and succeeds far better than most. Seriously heavy. BOOMKAT

This is fucking INSANE!

I scored the 2nd aXXo EP "Hell Plate" which is also a friggin monster and HAD to hunt the 1st one down too.....and WOW!

aXXo is now my top producer of the moment.

Do yourself a favour and nab both of these 12"s asap!!

Seeing as no one replied to my thread about the 2nd 12" I'll just paste it here as it really is a crime for this to go un-noticed! Hope that's not too cheeky!



This just dropped and it's an absolute BEAST!

This has to be bagged on sight people!

Below is info from Piccadilly Records................

"Following the success of the super-heavy "Silvah Bullet" EP in 2008 (ROTW here at Piccadilly) Killtone are back with another aXXo special. aXXo are a duo of dub enthusiasts who borrow from the old and new school of bass music. They mix angry twisting, dubstep bass growls with vintage (Studio One style) spring reverb and tape effects. This is future music owing a heavy debt to 70s dub. On this EP we see them moving yet further away from the mainstream of dubstep towards deeper dread filled space experiments. Sometimes ultra minimal, sometimes ultra hectic but always working the lowest of bass frequencies with deceptive weight (turn it up and you'll understand!)."

Listen to snippets at www.piccadillyrecords.com or...........

If you love RSD and the more Reggae/Dub influenced Dubstep this will be right up your street! I love this shit!
