Green Bandana
Green Bandana - (3:47) 135 BPM
Review: Rolling in the manor with the ratta ta taahh... Sheffield's Teedee makes his debut on Nu Wave with this one-track gun-finger salute. Rolling deep with Prezz Montana and Don Dappa, there's a sharp, hooky grime feel as Teedee rolls between spacious beats and a chugging 4x4 while keeping the lava-like low end oscillations flowing. Smoking.

My Dress
My Dress (original mix) - (4:29) 129 BPM Hot
My Dress (Dappa VIP mix) - (4:38) 131 BPM
My Dress (Steve Brooke remix) - (4:25) 130 BPM
Review: If you ever wanted to know what a collision between a garage juggernaut and a wobble techno would sound like, well, "My Dress" is it. Sirmo weaves a quirky snippet of film dialogue around lively hi-hats and juddering bottom end for an explosive floor-filler. The Dappa VIP version dubs things out slightly and adds an extra little spring in its step. However the monster track here is Steve Brooke's remix which adds another nastier bassline and more of a garage swing for maximum dancefloor damage.

Rikos Revenge
Rikos Revenge (original mix) - (4:14) 133 BPM Hot
Riko's Revenge (Wolfe remix) - (3:48) 135 BPM
Rikos Revenge (radio edit) - (4:09) 133 BPM
Review: There's no denying DJ Direct doesn't fool around, as you'll soon find out on this single - 'I'll shoot ya bruv' one sampled lyric seems to say. The original version is a super bouncy club track with a kick, clap and stack combo to boot, while Wolfe's remix reworks bass to the front of the mix while remixing the track's arrangement for something different. Dangerous UKG - don't front.

Mooody
Mooody - (4:46) 128 BPM
Big Jimmy - (3:56) 128 BPM Hot
Review: Hungarian heaviness UKG-style, "Mooody" sees Sirmo conjuring up six different types of bassline and laying them down over a delightfully shufflesome drum arrangement. Twisting and turning with turbulence, it's design to keep your floor on their toes from start to finish. Flip for "Big Jimmy". A more linear affair (read: he's got about three bass sounds instead of six) it rolls and gurgles over a slightly techier beat... The results speak for themselves.

The EP
Faded - (4:57) 129 BPM
Give It All - (4:41) 126 BPM
Whoa - (4:59) 129 BPM Hot
Take It Or Leave It (feat DUO UK) - (5:08) 126 BPM
Review: Sheffield youngster Kris Jay - AKA producer Chris Matthewman - is doing his best to uphold the best traditions of Steel City bass on this debut EP for Nu Wave. Powerful subs and bone-rattling basslines form the backbone of his sound, which takes in a myriad of "bass music" forms. Opener "Faded" delivers a fusion of two-step garage, UK bass and the wooziness of deep house, before "Give It All" swings by on a trip back in time, presumably to a speed garage rave circa 1997. "Whoa" sounds like something Sheffield legend Winston Hazel could have made - ludicrously heavy sub, hustlin' 4/4 garage beats and pitched-down ragga vocals - while "Take It Or Leave It" pits a fragile, world-weary female vocal against a chunky, bass-driven garage groove.

Review: For a label that only launched this spring, Nu Wave has taken no prisoners whatsoever. Repping the funkier side of garage and the darker side of deep house, Deckstar and Steve Brooke have established a distinctive sonic signature in a very short space of time. Here we find them tethering their past work with a number of exclusives to form this highly accomplished debut compilation. Ranging from the dark bubble/jazz-chord balance of Deckstar's "Wondering" to Lee Martin's organ-slapping "Wanna Be" via Duo and Chantelle Rowe's blistering vocal stunner "Enough Of Your Love", Nu Wave paint an on-point picture with clarity and originality. Get to know.

Ain't Nobody
Ain't Nobody (Chris Gresswell remix) - (6:07) 124 BPM Hot
Ain't Nobody (Cavna remix) - (5:31) 128 BPM
Ain't Nobody (High Society remix) - (5:21) 126 BPM
Ain't Nobody (Boy Raver & Pianoman remix) - (4:54) 124 BPM
Review: Deckstar and Steve Brooke's Nu Wave label has been on a roll as of late, releasing some of the best new artists around when it comes to funked-out house music. This time, label newbies Ryan & James are accompanied by Chris Pottinger on a full remix EP of their "Ain't Nobody" tune. Chris Gresswell provides a deep, subby bassline, while Cavna is in a party mood with his sample-fuelled, old-school house refix. High Society step up and deliver another bouncy house version, while Boy Raver and Pianoman team up to deliver a Chicago-inspired bomb made purely for a hot, sweaty summer dancefloor.

I Like The Way
I Like The Way - (5:07)
Review: Badman sounds from the likes of Billy Ken and Duo, two UK artists on a steep rise to success and total dancefloor domination. Representing Nu Wave's second outing, the boys come trough with a nutty garage stomper for the small hours. Swamped vocals, shuffling percussion slices and whole load of funk.
