ZamZam Sounds - a relatively fresh dub label thats been pushing some absolute FIRE recently. Old-school dub sounds with a forward thinking attitude. Thought you ninjas might be interested.

Jah Warrior - African King (ZAMZAM 05)


Xoki & Hieronymus - Deep Recall (ZAMZAM 04)


Strategy - Dub In My System (ZAMZAM 03)

New Badawi is big. RSD forthcoming!

Clips of 010

Think I only need Alpha & Omega one and I've got them all up to Badawi.

Big label.

Yeh new Badawi is sick, has it reached UK now then? There's one on discogs but couldn't find any other online retailers with them.

Badawi doesn't seem to be up yet on those who stoke it in the UK, I only know of Dubvendor and RWDFWD.

I've brought a few of 'Kristina Records' on discogs, they're mint and same price as retail so best bet is to go there. They have the Badawi in stock.

yeah nice stuff, that first one sounds a bit like some old (very old tbh) Rusko or even Kromestar. Love it. :W:

Every time I've tried to buy something off Kristina they email me back saying it's out of stock :(

Not really sure if I like the new one that much, feels more future garage than dub to me.

Disciples and RSD are both going to be big releases, Russ D makes the fattest bass.

Only ordered once but got 3, had no problems. Even came in a little protective wallet which I thought was a nice touch!

I think I've just been unlucky. I went in to the store in Dalston once, the guys were really friendly and knocked a fiver off because I bought so many fucking records :lol:

Got the RSD and Badawi one from them and got sent the covers for them both but in the RSD was the Badawi vinyl lol.. so got it twice. Emailed them and they apologised and sent the RSD one out. Big up those guys!

Good to hear!!

Going to wait for RWDFWD to get their stock in before I get the Badawi one, I'm not a massive fan of the tunes tbh but maybe they'll grow on me.

Disciples and Alpha & Omega coming out on ZamZam soon, very excited about both of them.

Probably my favourite label atm, always so much variety with the underlying theme of dub throughout!

ZamZam >>

Just wish I could find a UK seller of Alpha & Omega ‎– Revolution In The City, its the only one I'm missing. Might have to bite the bullet and just get it shipped from the US soon.

It's kind of hard to keep track of where I am with ZamZam swear UK shops get them at huge intervals, Juno seem to have ages ahead of some places and other places seem to get them really late by comparison.

That 2nd Ishan Sound tune is SICK.

Yes that Ishan Sound release is big.

B side sounds like some old D1 business
