2015; the year of the dub plates

Really Loved Nomine’s Inside Nomine LP along with LX- One’s Motions LP.

+1 on Skeptical’s Something in The Sound/Talk The Talk. Besides that I also loved:

Kaiju- 3+2
Distance - Long Live the Groove & Can You Dub. Survivors is my favorite Dub from him.
Kromestar -Second Home & Monsters
Gantz- Spooky Action At a Distance

And this finally came out:

Also listened to a lot of Drum & Bass this year too like this:

Foamplate killed it this year. All his releases were on point. Karma release on Innamind was amazing and I personally rate the Alex Coulton release on Tempa. Not to mention Epoch’s track on the new Allstars release is one of the baddest tunes of the year.

Talk The Talk is fucking huge, play it every time I mix

I like blending Skeptical’s 140 releases in and out of eachother. The mixdowns are supertight and it’s great fun doing some bassline switcheroos.

My guess is this, Mala’s been rinsing it lately

Also maybe this:

1 BigUp

Yeah his tunes work so well together, I wish he released more 140 stuff, his production is so on point. Also Talk The Talk into Aardvarck - Untitled 1 Bloom 3 is enough to destroy worlds.

Listen at 37.45

Feel like this tune hasn’t been given enough love, such incredible sound design and percussion and the second drop goes in

what’s the tune after the Aardvarck one? cool.

41.30

malleus - in the machine

been after this for a while big up @rorz9992 doing a full tracklist in the comments, was just gonna post the time and ask if anyone knew it ha

think i first heard it at young echo big session at the island where mala played, maybe before, just remembered all year he had a nasty tear out bit in his bag that i’d never heard anyone else play

heh been trying to get tunes from him for like 6 months

hope so, interrogation is large af

u mean this one? Fortress dubs 001, proper quiet plate you have to pump it right up when bringing this one in

1 BigUp

Aah you badman, been wanting to know what that tune is for time

Yeah this is the one, big big tune, really rate this guy’s productions and sound, he used to have quite a lot up on his soundcloud but most of its been taken down now :disappointed: Hope to hear more from him in the future.

kinda gutted on how poorly mastered/pressed this release was. Wake up is such a fookin banger but the plate sounds like poo. I still rinse it p often tho.

yeah same, love his stuff, pretty sure I’ve seen him post on here before too. Hoping the Ishan Sound remix of Wake Up sees the light of day at some point too

Aha, this has to be a first. But ill let it slide as if someone’s else has gone to the trouble of re-upping it and Infernal is pretty legit, then yeah you get a pass.

I don’t think it sounds too bad, maybe just a little quiet, just have to turn the gain up a bit when bringing it in.
