Ed Solo & Skool Of Thought
by VMax on Oct.16, 2007, under Music
A while ago I heard the vinyl ‘Babylon Breaks‘ that is released on the ‘Against The Grain‘ label. The A side of this record, ‘Babylon Breaks’, goes very deep and has an incredible breakbeat bassline! Sounds something like upbeat dubstep, something I like! What they’ve done with the B side is a total riddle for me, ‘Believe in the funk’ is a club dancefloor track and sounds very electro-ish. This while the other side is so made for rippin’ up the underground parties.
Anyway, this release only is not the reason why i’m blogging this. There is a new release on Lloyd’s label. ( Lloyd = Skool Of Thought & he’s also the owner of Against The Grain ) ‘Always There‘ is this new 12″. The track itself is again filled with bass and awesome lyrics of Incognito! These lyrics are reworked nicely, sounds neat. Definitely a track that can be played on parties with mainstream people.. The second track, ‘Sludge’, sounds more like dubstep. Again the deep bass wich is Ed Solo‘s specialty! Overall, both artists are great producers. I’m sure waiting for there next release!

Soundclash – Screw Face
by VMax on Sep.09, 2007, under Music
Dirty Dubs, a label used by Benny Page to release some tracks under his alias Soundclash, has released a third promo record: “Screw Face”. The first side has the track “Screw Face” on it. A track mainly about a deep bassline and a short vocal, “Move back!”. The sound is quite repetitive, but cool. No fancy stuff, just the beat. The second side holds the track “Over Me”. There’s a MC spitting it out over the whole track. This track has more action, a couple of breakdowns and samples.. Overall a good record like you would expect from Benny!

ZZT – Lower State Of Consciousness
by VMax on Aug.19, 2007, under Music
I don’t like this record, at all. ZZT is a collaboration of Tiga and Zombie Nation. I believe this is the first track they do together, and let’s keep it that way! Horrible. The A1 side has the “Original Munich Version” which sounds like a game boy on speed.. Totally overdone and meaningless. Hold on, there is a second track; the “Justice Remix”. The remix has the same annoying sounds but also adds a beat to them.. The typical Justice beat.. The remix isn’t worse, but definitely not better. Let’s keep Tiga away from Zombie Nation!

Simian Mobile Disco – I Believe (Switch Mix)
by VMax on Aug.19, 2007, under Music
You should definitely check this record! Being from July ’07 it’s dated a bit, but still worth listening..
The LP has two tracks, the first one is a remix by the well known Switch guys.. It’s a cool remix, but they start to get boring.. The same tricks get pulled every time..
The AA side is more interesting, this track doesn’t need a remix. It has these twinkles and cool sounds, very amusing track..
