Dub Inspiration



This mix comes with a heavy emphasis on bass, from Studio 1 dancehall to modern day steppers and dubstep(even with a grime tune in there for good measure). It was not so much a concept to start with, but rather an idea of something that I wanted to be able to listen to myself. I enjoy when a mix has a nice curve or arc, and was going for that here... and feck it, I'm pretty happy with it too!

It comes mostly from Jamaica and the UK, but even features some stuff from Dublin's very own T-Woc. These are solid tracks and I was delighted to pick them up, but its even just great to see Irish dubstep getting pressed! Go on the lads, hopefully lots more of this in 2009. I'm personally very excited about an album coming from our western shores, the debut release from Intinn, Ireland's conscious warriors. If its as good as there live work we'll be in for a treat.

And check out ur man on d bike! he's tougher den Rambo wielding a bass clef! Gotta get me some of that goin for my post bike. there's time yet...
