Dungeon Meat レコード& CD

Review: The latest compilation 12" from Dungeon Meat brings together a heavyweight cast for a trip into the seedy underbelly of tech house. Leading the charge is Honey Dijon, who's on tough and heavy-grooving form with the low-end pulsing pump of "Blue Sky". Desert Sound Colony shakes things up with a quirky, bumping sample juggler in "Where Are Ya?" - calling to mind the madcap antics of Jacob London but less goofy and more mean tempered. Danielle Temperilli takes cues from UK garage for the crooked 2-step freakery of "Rattlesnake" - a wild card deep cut for the heads to get quizzical to.

Review: Brawther and Tristan Da Cunha's Dungeon Meat label is back with another massive platter of heavyweight house, this time from Dutchman Dennis Quin. He wastes no time in getting down to business with 'Naimus' layering up rock-solid kicks and steel-sharpened hi-hats with yelping vocal stabs for an energetic rave-up. After that comes the equally high octane and sweat-inducing 'Buzz Cracked' before 'Switch The B' brings a raw and naughty hint of garage swing to its monstrous drums. These tunes have already been road tested at places like NYC Downlow and Houghton Festival to great effect, so there is no doubting their ability to make an indelible mark.

Review: Leeds legend Tristan da Cunha teams up with Brawther to present more finely curated afterhours house on Enter The Dungeon. This one features the boompty bounce microhouse of Snad's 'Pure Veg' on the A side, followed by Oward's 'Nice To Meat You' getting properly deep, down and dirty. Over on the flip, the swing-fuelled energy of 2HOT2HANDLE's 'Rentre Dans Le Donjon' takes the very best of UK speed garage elements, followed by the emotive, late-night mood music of Incus' 'My Jam'.
