Vinyl compilations/albums (bass-heavy)

Post by wehlfest » Fri Nov 14, 2014 3:46 am

Greetings. Been lurking around for a bit, haven't posted much in the last few months.

I've been getting into DJing vinyl at my house. I'm looking for some compilations/albums that are decent. Anything bass heavy from the likes of Zomby, Mala, Gantz, Vex'd, Distance, old Skream, Wen, Commodo, Silkie, Kahn, Kryptic Minds, Terror Danjah, Royal-T etc.

Just trying to get the most bang for my buck so to speak.

Thanks for the help. 8)

new compilation on Artikal is pretty good; 2x12" for £10, that's 8 tunes plus d/l codes for the digital comp (14 tunes). no-brainer. Scientist Launches Dubstep Into Outer Space (original mixes). copped it in a record store for a tenner about a year back. not a single weak tune on it and overall great variety. 5 Years Hyperdub; need to get the 12"s individually though. you can get the Skreamisms cheap off discogs. Tempa Allstars. older ones are pricey, but if you're looking for solid dubstep compilations, #3-#6 do the trick (1&2 are more proto-dubstep/dark garridge).
albums... the two dmz ones. author. vex'd. distance. kode9 & the spaceape.

wanna spend more, go for Grime2 on rephlex.

The Bug - London Zoo, the Tectonic Plates compliations are top stuff, Silkie's City Limits LPs, Distance - Repercussions. MAH - Warrior Dubz is amazing but pricey.

All that melts away when the lights are down and the bass is up.

A few that I can think of off the top: Deep Medi Releases Volumes 1-3, 50 Tracks of Tempa on Bleep (includes Crack Bong), Skreamizm Vol. 1-5 on Bleep, and Black Box Presents Transmissions Vol. 1 & 2.

Edit: I really need to learn how to read. All the Soul Jazzes along with Warrior Dubz are really the biggest compilations on vinyl. You can also find Skream! for not much as well.

Has been mentioned but the 'scientist launches dubstep into outta space' comp on Tectonic is awesome, has lots of great tunes and artists (mala, loefah, pinch, distance, guido, rsd) and is pretty cheap on discogs etc

I proper love so many of those tunes :mrgreen:
