Volume One (2000 Tribute Mix)

Reissue of in demand classic.Dubtraxx was new on the scene back in 2019 when they dropped this EP which has since become something of a mini-classic. It came on their own label Rhythm N Vibe and now this is seriously heavyweight gear gets reissued. ‘Soundbwoy Request’ is especially dangerous, working plenty of dub, reggae and jungle motifs into a rugged garage structure and sounding utterly ruff in the process. ‘Towards ’99’ is no slouch either, albeit on a slightly housier tip than the raucous A-side. The “2000 Tribute Mix” of ‘Next Millenium’ meanwhile sneaks out a few of the eerie tones you’d expect to hear around the time that dubstep first started to emerge.
