I’m really really really feeling this label lately. They’re a dubstep label run out of the Anthem Records shop in Portland, and their stuff is just SICK (not to mention their sleeve design–BEAUTIFUL!)
Seriously–they’re effing GORGEOUS sleeves–hand-printed label logo on a jacket cut from the kind of brown kraft paper that we all know and love from the bags they give you at the record shop (or the comic book shop, liquor store, porn palace…but I know them from the record store).
Anyway, LoDubs has released tunes from perennial Mashit favorite Starkey, South3rn, 6Blocc (aka L.A. jungle producer R.A.W.), and Bombaman (including a super-hot Bombaman remix of Solvent), and have an INTENSE list of slated releases for the near future: Mashit fave Pacheko, DZ (including a DZ Morcheeba remix), South3rn’s absolutely MASSIVE and super-sought-after “Fully Loaded” b/w “Muslim Dub”, a Nadja remix by Vex’d, and a 2CD mix by 6Blocc. Check out their site (just a myspace page at the moment, http://www.myspace.com/lodubsrecords), and have a free mixset of LoDubs tunes (old stuff and super-duper-tippy-top-secret unreleased dub plate business) courtesy of Jon @ Anthem:
I’m really loving a lot of acid house revival stuff coming out of Chicago right now (as well as France, Belgium, England…)
Of particular interest is a new 12″ featuring a Johnny Fiasco Remix of the never-before-released 1988 acid classic “Don’t Take It” by the late, great Armando Gallop. It’s out on a label called (get this) Let’s Pet Puppies. Peep!
Ok, here’s a big post–I’ll try to start at the beginning. I’ve started a new label (a sister label to Dead Homies), called Sleazetone Records, specializing in all the kinds of music that you’d assume a label called “Sleazetone Records” would trade in. The first releases are a CD & 12″ by a group called Ssion–they’re a Kansas City-based art collective fronted by Cody Critcheloe (graphic designer for Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Scream Club, & others). They’ve toured with YYYs, the Faint, Black Dice, & Liars, and they sound kind of like the Pet Shop Boys meet the Dead Kennedys meet Hakan Lidbo.
Hi all, sorry it’s taken me so long to get around to writing on here…things have been super-busy. I’ll be on more often in the near future–promise!
Anyway, today we have two new mashup’s of Starkey’s “Corner Store” feat. Xploder (get the original here). This first one is Corner Store + Ginuwine’s “Pony”:
I’ll be heading out on the road next week for a little tour of the North East before returning to Chicago for a couple fun parties here. I’m gonna give each gig its own post below, but here’s the quick rundown:
