Probably my favorite label at the moment. Pushing that deep and melodic sound, but also releasing some roots/reggae stuff, there are some absolutely amazing tracks being put out on there right now.

Swarms, Clubroot, O-Dessa, South3rn, 6blocc/R.A.W., Starkey, etc. - big things coming from Lo Dubs!

Got nothing but love for Clubroot. "Clubroot" is possibly the best dubstep album ever.

"Muslim Dub" by South3rn is beyond catchy too. When I first heard that, no joke, I was whistling it every 10 minutes for about a month :lol:

I only heard Muslim Dub a few months ago watching Ideal and had to find out what it was. It often plays over in my head.

Just bought this....I fucking love it.. The opera-style vocal samples on chamber are amazing, remember me is beautiful, it's a fucking TUNE, easily one of my favorites, and the other side, which has Solar Flares, is another amazing tune.
Saving up some cash to get the swarms old raves end LP on vinyl. Anyone want to donate $20? :mrgreen:

Good move getting a 1200 for your first deck. Makes it so much easier already having one when you decide you want to start mixing. I did the same.

So many underrated producers on this label too - Clubroot and Swarms get enough respect, but artists like south3rn, O-dessa, Tru Tek, etc need more!

I work in dollars and no, that seems to be the going rate on ebay/ craigslist... or it was when I got them. Either way, Lo Dubs is a pretty good label from the US. Need more of their releases.
