REVIEW: “UNIVERSAL VIBRATIONS” by Chad Dubz
The big man Chad Dubz is no stranger to my record box. I’ve been a fan of the Bristol-based dubstep producer’s output since roughly 2017 when I picked up his sophomore release on his Foundation Audio imprint “Kingdom Dub EP”, that led me to grabbing his “22 Ounces” release on Boka and the rest is…

REVIEW “BEHOLD b/w PARADISE BIRD” by J. Sparrow
A nice little find courtesy of Planetwax.co.uk. I found this 45″ when I was browsing a recent sale there. The first ZamZam Sounds record that I ever REALLY heard was LQ & Headland’s “Fat Neck” and after listening to that track on my subwoofer at home, I knew that the Portland based dub label was…

The Burning Paper EP is made up of four tracks featuring the Young Echo collective associated Manonmars and Bogues with production duties taken up by Ishan Sound and Neek respectively. I was already very familiar with the A2 track…

REVIEW: “INTERTWINED” by EAZYBAKED
I’ll fully admit that I had no idea what to expect when I ordered this cassette. I had heard of EAZYBAKED through Twitter and had a vague idea of what type of music they made and I knew that it was vaguely something similar to what I was into, but if I’m completely honest, I…

REVIEW: “COMPLEX FLASHBACK” by TMSV
PRF004 is the most recent vinyl offering from Dutch bass-master TMSV who has served up a wide selection of vibes for the heads on this release featuring two different dubstep tracks on different ends of the sonic spectrum, as well as tasty little digi-ragga banger. The title track “Complex Flashback” is a rolling euphoric dubstep…
