Clinton Sly - "Party All Night" (FLeCK mix) - (3:29) 148 BPM
Review: Signing out 2016 in style: Totally Dubwise follow up their successful Riddim Up collection with another full-spectrum compendium featuring all firm family faces. Fresh versions abound from moody, gully darkness ("Versitality Dub", "Struggle") to rushed-out party skankers ("Party All Night", "Money Friend") to sultry sunrise horn-blazers ("Temptress Riddim") via out-and-out bounce attacks ("Police Officer") ensuring this album not only documents the strength and creative clarity of the label but every member involved, too. Serious firepower.
Review: 39 tracks, 10 FX sounds and a full mix. This isn't any old slice of afternoon cake you might share your elderly neighbour or distant relative, this is a seven-tiered wedding cake full of every type of unhealthy, fattening ingredient you can imagine. And we're not stopping until we've chowed the lot. If you've feasted on Deekline and Solo's Jungle Cakes before then you'll already know how tasty this is; a selection of their own releases and similarly spirited cuts from the scene, all laced with dubwise, dancehall and skank-soaked soul. Highlights hang from every corner but you'd be mad not to peak at Aries & Gold's soul-flecked massage of Mr Benn, or Dominator & Logan D's brokeback bust-up "Cowboy" or Serial Killaz' savage repurposing of Freestyler's iconic "Entertainer". High calorie badness.
Review: Sonz Of Mecha co-creator King Yoof has contributed to the breaks and bass scene since its earliest stages of formation. Proving he's still got the punch he slapped with back in the day, here he teams up with soul-stirring vocalist Ronnie Blue and tip-top toaster Mr Williamz for an emphatic, sing-along D&B sermon that skips and sizzles with sun-kissed charm. Remix-wise all styles are covered: dubby house skankage (Gold Dubs & Nushu), slamming D&B (Toronto Is Broken), jacking 4/4 garage (Capitol 1212), heads down tech bubbles (Oscar Luweez) and dub-flecked dancehall stompage (King Yoof's own Stepper version). Each soundboy has nailed their remix with precision - show them some love today.
