Simple, non negative thread;

Which label do you like the most and why?

For me its between Tempa and Boka at the moment;

Tempa as it has a massive catalogue and is diverse with its artists/releases
Boka seems to put out some real heavy weight 12s

Looking forward to more from Gangsta Boogie as well... love their line up.

Adna Cigarra

Caters to the fans of the "deep" side of dubstep. Heavy subs, great artists. Beautiful label.

Deep Medi

cause it will never disappoint

Whos on this imprint ?

Rottun/EX7 cuz man, I love Datsik, and all the rest of the Rottun guys are so sick. I think Excision has a real vision for EX7, super excited for what's coming in the future!

gotta love hyperdub

DMZ, Deep Medi and Hench.

Always have massive releases that outshine most of the shitty generic stuff thats constantly floating around.

Tempa, Hyperdub, Kapsize and Dub Police are all quality labels too.

Edit: Oh, lets not forget about Disfigured Dubz either .

Hyperdub.

Consistently brilliant output and consistently breaking boundaries.

Planet Mu, Apple Pips, Hotflush, DMZ, Tectonic, Tempa and Deep Medi all deserve a mention too, as do many others.

Dmz/hyperdub/swamp 81

Planet Mu

just look at what they've released this year.
Hotflush is sick aswell.

Tempa for me as an overall label - Although there are better single tunes on other labels with Tempa there isn't a single release I don't like

oh, and Tectonic.

Alphonso BASStinction

Daynjeriss Redarick

Nigerian 419 Movement

Bluddy Nukkilz

40Hz & 40 Nightz (not my thing really)

Melanie Twenty Five (M25)

Password 10 & CosmosChimp (a.k.a Jomo Kenyatta II) - pan-african spoken word over deep bass

Banshee (pretty much a Skream knockoff...but a few interesting tunes, don't expect anything mind blowing here though)

Slippaz

Salid Tossah

fairly new label...can't seem to find out where they based out of. They have no myspace, no bandcamp, no nothing....a few bits here and there on casette tape.

if I were you I wouldnt spend time trying to track them down. I heard they got a compilation coming out next month though.

SHIFT

going on this year, its definitely a throw up between hyperdub and planet mu. all-time? that's a toughy

Hotflush probably

they put out gravious, luke envoy, boxcutter, elemental, toasty etc etc

swamp 81 will be the label of the future though....loefah has serious standards that he ain't gonna let drop

Hyperdub
Deep Medi
Hemlock
