Review: The Book of El - not to be confused with the AAA movie by a similar name starring Wil Smith - is courtesy of Dubplate Dread and it's a raw, jungle inspired journey through sampled soundscapes and urban, dance music culture. The snares are tough, the breaks are gruff and the overall vibe is one of a by-gone era of cutting houses and Fabio on BBC Radio 1. It's nostalgic and yet sounds fresh, especially the liquid tones of 'Soundsystem', and it's a combo that we dig.
