Review: After a year of releases, 83 are taking stock with 83 Showcase 01, their first label compilation. It kicks off with the utterly monumental opener "Around The Corner". Crafted to perfection by Suga7 it's all loose and slow funky drummer beats and haunted bass. Elsewhere across these ten tracks we have all sorts of other discoveries too including the stark, dry and claustrophobic vibes of "Get Down" by Javy Groove and the doomy ghetto swing of "Underground" by Guau, a jam in possession of one of the most evil build-ups ever.
Review: After the highly anticipated release of the '11 Sins' project earlier this year from Murix, it was only a matter of time before the remixes started to appear. This '11 Sins (Remixes)' package features a full set of rework, included top draw work from the likes of Le Duke, Dovo, The Brainkiller, Outselect, Yo Speed and many more. The best moments for us include CoolTasty's choppy break refix of 'Everything', Hankook's darkened sub heavy redesign of 'Freestyler' and of course Guau's phenomenal reese driven overhaul of '11 Sins' complete with with crunchy drum processing and hardcore influences.
Review: For this super creative two track broken garage project, we hear the innovative sounds of Zemon alongside the 83 imprint, and it's an absolute corker. As a first track 'Lecture' is exactly what the UK music scene is after, creative, skippy, melodic garage with a tonne of impressively designed synthesisers. The syncopation increases tenfold as we roll into 'Girl' which vibes off pulsating reese leads, beautifully plucked melodies and unpredictable drum manoeuvres, resulting in a super groovy composition. The one is a real example of how creative you can get with the UKG style.
