24 Oct 11 Dirty/Heavy Dubstep/Grime
Played by: Knife Party
Review:
Braintree based solo artist Brown & Gammon lays claim to the Essex dubstep crown with this latest brace of bangers for the Circus label. Following on from last year's massive "Painkillers" which caused considerable damage, "Blow My Mind" continues the theme with stomping drums, squiggly synth hooks and a bouncy, house influenced mid-section setting this one apart from the pack. "Riddle Me This" mashes up anthemic pads with Prodigy style cut up vocal snippets over skippy beats with a reggae sensibility. One to watch.

Review:
The Circus performer and compadre of Flux Pavilion and Doctor P steps up with an ear-crushing, stomach-flipping four track EP of epic proportions. Expect smashing mid-range mayhem, with screeching synths and wobbly basslines in abundance. The title track has a cartoon-like feel, with the growling vocal screaming "me want cookie" over vertiginous bass wobbles. "Frontline" juxtaposes "Sweetshop" style screams over throbbing, taught synths reminiscent of Noisia's "Stigma" before "You Can Do It" takes over, with its aggressive punch and kick tactics. Final track "R0807 D06" draws it all together with a series of robotic shudders, percussive hisses and ear-splitting rumbles.

Review:
Classic Cookie Monsta silliness; he knows how to truly nurture a hype hook. And on this occasion he's done it with a LOL-worthy jab at our mothers. With the tongue-in-cheek remark about our mums delivered, the high-end bass mischief that follows is one of his most hectic and fun-fuelled hooks to date. Proving he's not a one trick pony, "Cave Of Filth" goes on a deep dungeon flex with heaps of texture and well-reigned drama. Epic stuff.

Review:
Doctor P and Flux Pavilion hand over the selection duties to familiar label faces Funtcase and Cookie Monsta for the second Circus set. A 25-strong banger compendium balanced between classics and exclusives, it oozes the perfect blend of bare-faced bass attitude and tongue-in-cheek humour. From Roksonix string-soaked jig jamboree "Music In Me" to Brown & Gammon's emotional audio rainbow "Dark Matter", the Circus sound is represented at its boldest, most characterful and, above all, fun. Not a dull moment in sight - check this and remember why we all got into dubstep in the first place.

Review:
One of dubstep's hottest labels, known as a launching ground for new talent such as Doctor P and Flux Pavillion, Circus unleash a new collection of beats and producers on this latest EP. Already with a huge following, Datsik teams up with Downlink on the shuffled electroid fire of "Sting", while Boy Kid Cloud goes off the scale with the mental leads of "How It Looks". Brown & Gammon fuse reggae soul with their extremely quirky "Be There", and rounding off the release, upcoming Russian producer Exponaut goes for sheep devastation with the impressively gonzoid "E621".

Review:
The follow up to ubiquitous, much referenced, heavily remixed and frequently circulated anthem of 2010 "Sweet Shop", Circus owner Doctor P comes up with another future classic on his own imprint. Imagine piping Rusko-style synth warblings, whippet screeches, a sprinkling of High Rankin's eccentricity and vocals which are straight out of Fresh's Kryptonite "Chacruna", and that's "Big Boss". "Black Books" is less Bernard Black and more Manny gone mad, with a rave-referencing intro, bouncing beats, bleepy progressions and sense that something's about to explode. A sure fire hit on the dancefloor, no doubt.

Review:
Along with his more D&B-slanted aliases Slum Dogz and Picto, Shaun "Doctor P" Brockhurst has become a dubstep icon, thanks to releases on Circus (co-founded with Flux Pavillion and Swan-E). Here, he reaches for that old standard, the Tetris theme, and wreaks absolute havoc with it. Dropping from the straight chiptune rendering of the original into a fierce metallic beat 'n' wobble riff, he arranges it sweetly, toying with the tune in short bursts amongst the carnage of the amped-up snares and bass noise. Expect this to get dropped simply everywhere very very soon.

Review:
Quite who Mr Mongoose is, we haven't the foggiest. But do we care? Not in the slightest. We haven't got time to care! Not while we're chowing down on the five mighty genre-smashing bangers that soundtrack his fantastic weekend. While all cuts are pretty darned shiny, the jewel in the crown has to be Dillon Francis and Doctor P's "Music Is Dead". A slow, sludgy, downtempo electro bass work out, it's like they've eaten all of Daft Punk's albums, drunk several bottles of strong spirits and battered their computers on each other's heads until they're happy with the outcome. Or something. Another highlight, that rolls with similar, slow-mo funkery, is Figure's "What More Do You Need?", a spitting, snarling, growling beast, it's proof tempos don't need to be a hundred miles an hour for things to truly bang.

Review:
A dirty screwed-up anthem from Flux Pavilion who delivers a real gem with "Got To Know". Produced with stunning precision, this half-stepping monster rides a clever descending chord sequence that gets fleshed out with tons of bitcrushed bass. With a female vocal that drops on every 32 bars, it's utterly relentless. "Normalize" is more pacey - switching up tempos at the drop of a hat while the buzzing synths flit between octaves. Proof that Flux Pavilion just keeps getting sharper and sharper, this is not to be missed for bassheads everywhere.

Review:
This huge collaboration for dubstep aficionados sees Circus co-founder and dirty bass god Flux Pavilion hook up with one of 2011's breakout stars, Skism, on the mighty "Jump Back". After an unholy build, the pair drop a smooth bass rhythm over half-step beats and allow London MCs Foreign Beggars to tear up the track with some typically intense rhymes. A huge tune, guaranteed to get some heavy rotation over the next few months, we urge you to get involved asap.

Review:
Eight tracks strong with appearances from the likes of Foreign Beggars and this is still technically an EP? We are officially being spoiled here by Funty! Highlights include MiK's lyrical fire and Funt's mad sonic switch ups on the title track, the dramatic high-end operatics on "Angry Claws" and the industrial strength halfstep savagery on "Particle". And that's not even half of it. Don't get Funtcase angry - just buy this EP and everyone wins.

Played by: Flux Pavilion
Review:
Funtcase does Circus boss Doctor P proud with his exuberant, ear-pounding Doomed EP which is as every bit as brash and as boisterous as you would expect from this camp. "Dem Mans" twists up a grime sensibility and tortures it with mid range distortions and synth manipulations a-plenty for a dramatic intro. Next he teams up with Genetix for the title track - an apocalyptic track with bellowing beats and twisted up sounds taken to the extreme. "IN! (feat. Persist)" is classic wobbly Doctor P style dubstep at its best, whilst "Invaderz" brings in the skills of Bristol-based Jakes for more mayhem.

Review:
A huge tune that's been getting crazy love from both the forums and the dancefloors for months finally gets a release from the good people at Circus. One listen and you'll see why Rusko, Chase and Status and Flux Pavilion have all been going mad for this debut release from Funtcase - check out "Mattress Punch" on the flip and you'll see he's no one-trick pony either. A potential dubstep classic in the making.

Review:
New artist alert! Circus Records welcome Mizuki to their fast-growing family of bass aficionados and this time we're in for a serious blend of beats and subs. The title track is a grinding half-stepper packed with enough grit to have your jaw fall off in pure euphoria and boasts a ridiculously funky bassline for an electro/dubstep hybrid. "Oh Yeah" is just as funky but instead of the more familiar dub-roll, we're now presented with a veritable pac-man score, where videogame coins bleep away to the most squelching bass flows imaginable. It's one hell of a ride, boys and girls!

Played by: Roksonix
Review:
It's exactly a year since Roksonix last appeared on Circus with the hair-tearingly boisterous "Music In Me". It's clear the duo haven't lost the touch, as "Get Live" is equally as frantic. After a teasing intro the main drop is one of Technicolour thunder with screaming highs and deep grizzly lows. A fine balance of melody and party fire, this may well score you a rewind or two. Meanwhile "Girlz" sees them sign up the inimitable mic styles of Spyda for a even ruder romp with added skank and sing-along lyrics that give well deserved credit to the fairer sex. Monstrous.

Review:
Roksonix steps up with a couple of bangers on Doctor P's ever expanding Circus Records; the enticing lyrical "Music In Me" is all reverberating vocal, clinking piano keys and building anticipation, dropping into a synth screeching tear out tune of enormous proportion, with grumbling bass and riled up rhythms, and growling roars, which bear resemblance to label owner Doctor P and the rest of the Circus roster. "Madness" is another mash up of computerized bleeping melodies, accelerating bass, distorted SFX and thumping drum kicks, which should have the UKF contingent foaming at the mouth. Coming to a dubstep rave near you soon!

Review:
Doctor P and friends fire up their mean bass machines for this rather generous eight track EP. Roksonix fittingly opens with a ringside seat to the halfstep chaos with a well-executed wrestling sample. Mizuki induces a sexy sense of strange with the wonkier, wistful, 8-bit baller "Damn F*#king Right". Later on we take a seatbeltless ride on the scariest ghost train this side of Kansas with Funtcase and take up smoking with Genetix's well-stacked "Chimneys". When things get too hot, you've got to get Shady...
