As promised, today brings the first of two exclusive EP's, which will be sent out only to backers of this campaign! We will start sending the first one out today via the message system here in Kickstarter, so follow the link there to check it out!

Volume one features:

6BLOCC - Slew Dem (Instrumental)

This track has been one of 6Blocc's secret weapons for a while now, having only been heard in the past in one of his live sets, or on the "6Blocc Vs. R.A.W. - Live at Various" mix tape. This is about the most enveloping Sub Bass in existence. 6Blocc slyly keeps the production and percussion to a minimum, as one that sub hits, it literally sucks all the other sounds out of the track, and one's ears. It almost feels more like an atmospheric disturbance than a track at full boost.

Jaybird - War Tone

As a lead up to his "What The Funk!?" 12", Jaybird has provided us with an additional track here. Although largely known for his house classic remixes, jaybird is an expert in the art of classic Dubstep minimalism. "War Tone" is a clear case in point.

Pocz & Pacheko - Coraje

The two masters from Venezuela collaborated on a pile of tracks together, and this is among the best. Pocz & Pacheko really balance each other out, with Pocz bringing his trademark sound that can best be described as Psychedelic bass music, and Pacheko with a real mastery of the drums and syncopation.

Word has it that around the time of these productions the two of them where kidnapped, blindfolded, and left alone in the middle of the street on the far side of Caracas, with all their possessions, including a car, and the computer a lot of these sessions where produced with taken from them. It's hard to get that story out of my mind when I listen to this beautiful track filled with cascading rhythms.

Swarms - Polar (Featuring C Strike Z)

Originally part of a sampler which is what we assembled the album Old Rave End from, C Strike Z is a Bristol MC known for being a regular at one offs all over the region, and for his mix tape work. While "Polar" in its original form is far more fitting in the album context, this version, with it's slightly off kilter but ultimately catchy vocal cadence is still a winner, and stands on it's own, or as part of this EP quite nicely.

Clubroot - Eastern Promise

Clubroot first let the world hear this track for a moment as a post on Dubstepforum, and from there it was penciled in as a track to be featured on the oddly popular, poorly named comp "This Is Dubstep Vol. 3" which ultimately ended up containing the track "Comedown" instead.

This is just too good of a song to let get lost, so I included it here to round out the EP, and to remind everyone of what amazing, yet hidden sounds will be unveiled, should we be successful with this campaign!

------------------------->

The next EP will contain an exclusive Clubroot track, a remix Collab from Chrissy Murderbot and 6Blocc, another from Pocz and Pacheko, and other surprises!

Thank you for your support, and if you have yet to back this campaign, please do so, and rest assured, all backers will receive these exclusive EP's, so don't think you missed the boat, unless the campaign ends before you get to it (nudge,nudge...)

Got mine this morning after missing it yesterday. Completely forgot it was in colour, so big surprise for me I backed at $55 level for 1 copy of each, got a CD with mine though. Haven't checked it out yet, I'm at work, but this just gets better.

Can't wait to check out the exclusive tracks on the Swarms CD, and of course, can't wait for CLUBROOT!

Portland, Oregon producer Johnny Bueno wants to take you on a journey. Calling on an array of analog synthesizers, drum machines and a deep record collection, he weaves together a sonic collage that creatively updates the classic sounds of DJ Krush, DJ Shadow and Mo’ Wax Records.

Starting off with just an ASR-X sampler and a deep record collection nearly 10 years ago, Johnny Bueno aka Justin Grubb began making music.His love of cinema, nature and theology, combined with broad musical influences, has resulted in style that balances emotive melodic elements with tough drum breaks and thick analog synth lines.Viewing the studio as an instrument, rather than just a place to make music, Johnny deftly manipulates every aspect of his compositions.

Raised in Portland, Johnny moved around the US after high school seeking out new sounds and sources of inspiration.Those journeys, combined with a constantly expanding studio arsenal, are the foundation for his music.The Heart’s Blood, his debut album, flows through many different motifs that showcase his fluid production techniques.While this may just be his debut release, plan on seeing the name Johnny Bueno around for years to come.
