New releases last four weeks: Dubstep

Review: Taking fully after Scientist's original formula of weighty sonics combined with comical covers, producer Sub Basics puts a welcome deep dubstep spin on such things with their fresh new 12", 'Lift Off' and 'Shipment'. This is essentially 'Scientist Gets In a Row With the FedEx Courier' but better: this intergalactic shipment is full to the brim with pre-cut dubplate PVC, adding a legitimacy to the argument: to abet the transportation of such immensely valuable items rarely results in an entirely smooth or unstressful operation; rows are almost bound to ensue. Fittingly, on pressing play, we are compelled to move with the ambition of a freight ship's lightspeed, motorically reacting to both tracks' sub-50hz singularities with a total instinctual reflexivity.
