Sampler 03:
KA & ENEI/SHROOMBAB – OPIUM/LUST & PAIN
Third and last vinyl sampler from the infamous Worldwide Babylon Vol. 1 compilation brings you a special treat:
Ka & Enei is the best combo Russia delivered to dubstep, you should be already familiar with them from previous releases on DubKraft or Subway. Their sound and techniques are really distinctive, making Opium a stand out tune that does the job both on the dancefloor and on the sofa! The beats are powerful, the atmos are creepy like the ghosts of dismembered industrial robots haunting an abandoned plant. And the bass is dense and groovy like you can almost touch it.
Shroombab ads more of the feminine input dubstep scene craves for since ever, and does it in the kinkiest way you can think of… Once described as “the first lady of Austrian drum’n’bass” by Knowledge Mag, Shroombab swings between many styles nowadays, and this experience enriches her dubstep works. This slow tempo tune was described as “some philosophers on mushrooms shooting bondage snuffs in a basement” for a good reason! A professional video is awaiting its final shots as we speak.
Sampler 02:
Alien Pimp / Alchemyst / Taz Buckfaster - Multiple Options / LFO Business / Bumba
Alien Pimp opens the freak show introducing you to some dark atmospherics which eventually are supplemented with sudden outbursts of rough violence. If you’ll be tempted to recommend him a shrink, note that others already have, but quite unsuccessfully.
Alchemyst’s track is undisputedly a dancefloor banger that was ignored only when tested on autists. Apart from that it only gets rewind requests, so be prepared!
For the last act, Taz Buckfaster takes care of your mental health, driving you into a warmer place with a track like we need more in the dubstep scene: full of organic sounds, deep, yet bouncy and, we dare to say, funky too!
So there’s 3 flavas in one blunt, rolled and beautifully packaged, you just light it up!
Sampler 01:
Migrant/Matoa - Flytrap/Hullwatt
UK still sheds a tear for letting Spain adopt this big talent, Migrant, that delivers here Flytrap - pure & standard dubstep quality. This piece is timeless, guaranteed to survive any trends coming and going.
Matoa is one of the artists DubKraft Rec puts most trust in to prove himself in 2008. This Polish producer managed already to develop his own sound, so no wonder we are still digging dictionaries for proper words to describe this floorfiller called Hullwatt.

*****************************
Yeah, we blew the first birthday cake candle, it’s been a tremendous year for DubKraft Records, and here’s how we thank you:
A dozen of big upcoming talents from all corners of the world are here for you to prove how global the dubstep has become and what gems you can find if you dig deep in the small local scenes, where we think the future lies…
Worldwide Babylon Vol. 1 is not your everyday omelet, so take your time to digest it properly:
It starts with Expressions of Evil, an ambiental track that’s Hannibal Lecter’s lullaby, and continues with Dao, the tune that would convert even your grandma to dubstep, that’s how nice it is! Opium is a joint venture between Russia’s best Ka & Enei, while UK still sheds a tear for letting Spain adopt this big talent, Migrant, that delivers here Flytrap - pure dubstep quality. Sour Diesel is by undisputedly one of the best US newcomers, Claw, featuring this huge legend Jimmy Lonsome, owner of the studio where The Strokes recorded their last album. Best cocktail bars are still looking for the recipe that blends deepness and roughness as cool as Multiple Option does, while we are still digging dictionaries for proper words to describe this floorfiller called Hullwatt. LFO Bussiness is just for big boys, so let us see your ID! Bumba sounds like UNKLE turned dubstep and Cyaan Stop’s sub is being used to test buildings resistance to earthquakes. Meditational Human Trade sends a deep message about the NWO upon us. We finish up gloriously with Lust & Pain, a slow track that pictures some philosophers on mushrooms shooting bondage snuffs in a basement, a number by Shroombab, aka “Austria’s first lady of drum’n’bass” as printed in Knowledge Mag.
But the year is far from ending for us, we keep our finger on the trigger, the wax debut is close, and even that’s not our last word for 2007!
Thank you dubstep massive for your support!
