Some tracks get pretty abused at the Ego Thieves HQ and this is one of them. Sibian & Faun release their debut EP ‘I’m Sorry’ on the ever evolving label, Numbers. Huge two step bumpy vibes, classic R&B sampling and lots of digital goodness, this was always going to go down well for us.
Out now to buy direct from the Numbers store. Also visit Sibian & Faun website here.
A clip taken from Scratcha DVA Rinse FM show (you can stream full show here, well worth checking out) of the new Burial track from the Kindred EP we posted about earlier. The track is entitled ‘Ashtray Wasp’.
Other tracks entitled on the EP are “Kindred”,“Loner”, and “Wasp Ashtray”. Very happy to see 2012 start with such a bang.
We were sent this a while ago from our old mucker Inspector Dubplate and imminently fell in love with it. We are huge Culprate fans (check his album colours here) and love the direction he is going in. This also shows the pace the Inspected label is picking up, showcasing more than just filth, wobbles and tracks that apparently make people want to act so filthy they usually insert their own hands into a family members oraphis.
Next year is going to be big for Inspected and this little beauty is taken from Culprates EP, out on Xmas day no less. Though we do love the track, we aren’t sure its going to be enough to pull us away from the various meats and stuffings on this year dinner table.
Some exciting news was announced from Hyperdub owner, Kode9, a few days ago: Burial is to release a new EP, Kindred (HDB059). Its the first EP to be released in nearly a year from an artist who inspires many with his style of music.

We have supported and loved Submerse. His eclectic range of production is amazing, especially his deeper stuff (his ‘Belong’ track on Dubfluence 5 is amazing). Here is another of his unsigned tracks ‘Always, Like This’ and it just hits the soul perfectly on a lazy pre X-Factor final Sunday. He also mentioned he is moving to Japan very soon, which hopefully means when we hit there next year we have a good and competent guide lol.
Since we launched the new site, we have been playing catch up on a few things we loved, but didn’t have the chance to post beforehand. Here is another one for the backlog.
Culprate, who most of you him for his pretty hard hitting wobbles, released an experimental album a few months back called ‘Colours’. Though it may not be to everyones tastes, that doesn’t phase us. No time for a full review right now, but here is our favourite track ‘Black’. Its such a good album and we love to support producers who aren’t afraid to step outside of their comfort zone. Buy the album here.
Big ups to Red Bull Music Academy for putting on these lectures. This was a favourite of ours from ‘Hotflush Records‘ label owner, Scuba. Detailing his musical career and insights into his thoughts on UK Garage, Jungle and why he hates Dubstep. For label owners or industry folks, this is a good watch.
Having already released three critically acclaimed albums over in Australia it is with great excitement that PNAU announce the release of their new single ‘Unite Us’ on Ministry of Sound on 5th February 2012. This is the remix by UK Garage legend ‘Wookie‘.
We have been huge James Blake fans all the way back since 2008 and on mixes such as Dubfluencial 8, Dubfluence 3 and more.
Now embarking on his more ‘commercial’ career, coming under allot of scrutiny from his original fan base, he decided to do what he does best and finally put a digital release date on a huge favourite track of ours ‘Love What Happened Here’. Going back to his melodic rhodes roots, this has everything you expect and demand from a James Blake EP. But it now <3
If you know about Ego Thieves, you should know we definitely aren’t all about ‘Dubstep’ and have a vast mix collection to prove otherwise. And DJ Zinc is a huge favorite of ours! His ‘Crack House’ EPs have been epic, and this cracked out continuation doesn’t seem to be stopping any time soon. Check out this sampler from the ‘Sprung’ EP out this month on the Rinse label.
Subzee D drops his debut EP on none other than Dub Police records. Out on the 12th of December featuring tracks ‘Jack In A Box’, ‘Zulu Stomp’ and our favourite out of the EP ‘One More’. Buy it here. Next year is going to be a big year for Subzee, and well deserved. Big ups to the Dub Police family and also if you have no idea who Subzee is, of course you can download our exclusive mix with him ‘Zulu Mask‘.
Someone sent this to us a few days ago and we obviously missed the boat on it, but had to post nether the less. All we know is we laughed our arses off, it happened in Dubstep city ‘Croydon’, was made by E4 and it features MC Skibadee’s ‘Human Error’ track. Watch it all the way through and while out.
