Dank N Dirty Dubz At Juno Download

Review: A very cosy triptych of vibes from Enigma Dubz and Sub Antix here as they each delivery a piece of their own and get lively on a serious collabo flex for the EP's title track. "Easy" starts off as a very charming slice of a deep dubstep but as we progress we find things take a turn for the sleazy as a gritty off-beat bass riff worms its way into the mix with mischief and surprise. Sub Antix's "Gully Youth" is an altogether more aggressive affair with ghetto-style rolling hi-hats, chest-pummelling kicks and icy alien sub-melodies that entwine with edgy 8-bit phrases. Enigma Dubz finalise the show with the darkest chapter of the EP as "Aliens" rolls with savage hollowed bass tones and some well known movie samples...

Review: Hijinkx carves out a unique palette of sounds here in the Metallix Vibez EP on Dank N Dirty Dubz. The original is all weird tribal sounds deliberately distorted and warped to sound like didgeridoo, with aggressive, metallic synths wacked on top for good measure. Requake makes a good job of his remix, stripping back the sounds and focusing on the throb and flow of the bassline, with snapping snares and a glimmer of the vocal. Hizzelguy, on the other hand, draws out the guttural element of the track, with shimmying synths to boot. An interesting EP with a range of flavours.

Review: Swansea sound merchant Sine Here isn't just a clever name - after just a handful of cheeky dublets on Monkey Dubs and DNDD, he's gone in hard with an astonishing debut album. Winking with just a hint of euphoria, shuffling with just a hint of subdued depth, it's the perfect tonic for both home listening and the sexier low-end minded soirees. From the trippy riddim and melancholy croons of the title track to the churchy twinkles and echoes of "Holding On To The Pieces" via the Autonomic style D&B skips and sonic weeps of "Lost", this really is a remarkable album. Sine Here has officially Lifted his game.
