30 day song challenge...

Dem 2 return!

Dem 2 are back!

Creators of my favourite classic Garage tune Destiny



With a new E.P out on Tighten Up records, The Holding is a return with a BANG for these guys!


Still on an old skool tip but with some fresh contemporary styles thrown in along the way!

I'm interested to see if this will spark a few more artists to get back in the lab!

Swindle-Mood Swings digital

Out now you can buy it from 'HERE'

This 2 track E.P could be the best to come from the Butterz gang so far!

Lead track Mood Swings with Swindle's signature funk infused bass sounds, female vocal breakdowns and it's sexy synth lines make this song an EXPERIENCE!



Second track Trending Topic is an upbeat grime instrumental with constantly rising synth lines, driven drums and a typical Swindle style jam over the beat!



There's no-one out there currently making music as big as this. Make sure you support it.

30 Day song challenge

Well I keep seeing this '30 day song challenge' keep popping up on Facemusk, I don't jump on the bandwagon usually, but it's a bit of fun so why not!

Day 1- Your favourite song.

Well being brought up on The Stone Roses I was always gonna choose one, weren't I?

Trippy swung drums which if they were sped up would sound as much like a 2-step beat as I ever did hear! along side amazing chilled guitar riffery(not a word?!) and an amazing laid back vocal.

Beautiful.....

The Stone Roses-Shoot You Down.

Nate Dogg-R.I.P

I needn't go into detail all I will say is the first vinyl record I bought and Nate Dogg was a genius and a legend.

Free download from Mr.Stone

Download a free Chase and Status remix by Mr.Stone!

Garage/Dubstep vibes all the way!

Assalt Suits...


A complete random on soundcloud....

Assalt Suits started following me today so I thought I'd share with you some of the highlights of his productions up at the minute!

I like the giddy-ness of this tune, loads of percussion, vocal chops and some dark snyths!


A Kind of Plea reminds me of something you'd expect the Night Slugs or Hessle Audio guys to be playing. Weird disjointed percussion and distant sounds...

Checan - Siberia

Some more dark garage/bassline business from my man Checan. Due for release on Flaming Idiot Audio(Can't find a decent link to a homepage for em?)

Siberia.

Sorry for the slackness...


I hope I've managed to maintain most of my followers while I've been quite slack on the olde blogging biznis!

I've been working hard at some of my new productions and you can expect some big things from me SOON!
For the time being have a listen to 'Gulfoss' it's something that I made after my trip to Iceland.


PS look out for muskman.co.uk a new site dedicated to forward thinking UK music.

I'm looking for like minded people to contribute. GET AT ME!
