Some 2012 shit!

Im not usually posting much bass music these days but i cant help it with releases like these two. Both big on bass and both hella inventive. The first one by ex-Aftershock grime crew member Scratcha DVA is release number 30 for the bass heavyweight label Hyperdub. Its a bit left of center compared to their normal releases but maybe that’s why Im into it so much. Gunja is the B side to an all impressive 12″ that has one of the most head nodding hypnotic hook lines to grace my cans in ages. Its DVA’s first release for the label and Im really looking forward to seeing what he does next.

Second up is the all impressive I.D. & Baobinga “Bass Music Sessions Release”. On first listen to this LP i didn’t know what to think. Its some serious 2012 shit. All kinds of bass music tunes from bad-ass hip hop to experimental electronica have been put together to make an album that has seriously blown my mind. Its gaining support from cats such as: Buraka Som Sistema, Claude Von Stroke, Sinden, LVis1990 and many more. Hither & Thither is prob not my fav track on the album but the one that most freaks me out. I seriously suggest buying this if ur short on production inspiration as its been that and more for me of late. Tune of choice from me is “Hush Up Riddem”. But Im gonna make u buy that one.
