Deep Dark & Dangerous レコード& CD

Review: DDD makes a landmark signing here with the legendary dubstep artist Caspa who is undeniably one of the genre's most influential figures from right back in the early days. CASPA's Inner Space EP finds the main man back in top form with his signature sound of ice-cold beats, deep, pulsating basslines, and forward-thinking sound design all making a massive impact. The four-track project makes for an immersive journey through 140 BPM and manages to blend introspection with hard-hitting energy. It is impactful yet refined music that solidifies his legacy while pushing the boundaries of dubstep into new and freshly futuristic territories.

Review: Denver's DMVU returns to DDD with the scorching Bruk EP, featuring heavy 808s and some wildly wonky grooves in between the menacing breakbeat interludes. DMVU's mastery lies in blending old and new and he delivers a meticulously crafted yet cohesive sound that is both physical and mental. The title track, 'Bruk,' kicks off with a thunderous drop that is guaranteed to shake speakers worldwide and introduces eerie atmospheres and warped percussive textures. 'Original Champion' combines quirky dubstep with medieval and 80s synthwave influences, while 'Suspect' delivers a powerful punch. The EP closes with 'Playback,' bridging dub reggae's roots with techy, metallic stabs.

Review: The so-called "Buffalo bass wizard" isded returns with more seriously wonky low-end madness in the form of his Swang EP on Truth's Deep, Dark & Dangerous label. This quartet of intoxicating cuts kicks off with 'Dig It' with its low-end oscillations and warped bass splurges. 'Swang' has slow tribal feels and vocals drift in and out of the poignant, slow-paced bass depths. 'El Affair' has some eerie piano notes hanging in the vast spaces above the cavernous drums and 'Shitfire' finishes off with more inky bass excursions and dubbed-out grooves.
