Review: Following the piano-licking brockage of "Total Recall", Rico continues on his old school escapades with this rat packing euphoria piece "Sweet Time" where a heavenly hook and soulful vocal ensure full thrust of the arms while a gully drop and slo-mo breaks ensure full thrust of bass face. Remix-wise none other than Ellis Dee joins the BW fray with a soaring mid-noughties Hospital-esque drum & bass refix while Sirmo shuts down the show with stinking 4x4 gurgler. Sweet.
Review: Over the years we have seen a number of stars born out of the GS Dubs imprint, the sister label to Garage Shared and a home to many of the brightest new garage names. They have decided to celebrate their fourth year of activity with a truly sumptuous collection, featuring 40 of their most beloved drops over the years. With a track list that features top names such as DJ Jackum, Clarcq, Purple Velvet Curtains, Soulecta, Gemi, Tuff Culture and more, this is a garage DJ's dream supply pack, with the sounds ranging from rampant 4x4 to wiley 2-step originals. As far as compilations go, this is a great example of how to balance the old with the new, with the GS Dubs mantra being to constantly push both types of talent forward with the same energy and expectation, making them a truly wonderful imprint.
Review: The Bass=Win project has been setting pace for quite a few years now, with projects spanning the full length of electronic dance music. We are here now to have a quick look at their latest 'Bass = Win Breaks' compilation, featuring 16 absolute heaters. Heavyweight bass names including Rico Tubbs, Future Wildstyle and a tonne more make solid appearances, but the obvious highlights of this compilation for us have to include Mafia Kiss's swampy rework of Flow State's 'Bad Man Tune', featuring electric vocals from Tippa Irie. Other highlights include Mij Mack's super clean remix of 'Bullets' from Rico Tubbs and of course Atomic Hooligan's break heavy rework of 'If We Try' from Reset!, also known as 'The Love Anthem'.
