Scavenger
Portuguese producer & DJ, 3WA debuts on Infernal Sounds with the Scavenger EP to mark the 4th instalment of the prolific LTD series. The producers progressive, forward-thinking approach to the 140 sound, is a perfect match for Infernal Sounds and this EP radiates the purest of dubstep flavours on offer. Minotaur kicks things off and instantly throws you into the crosshairs. The burgeoning weight of the main lead piles ten tonnes of weight onto the shoulders, and culminates a true monster in musical form. Mutts then wheels things back, elegantly crossing the boundaries between new-school 140 techniques and old-school dubstep tones. The percussion is an absolute triumph. Wandering takes you a little deeper into the mainframe, a swirling bass cauldron licked with groove-infused kicks and mid-range textures. Space Impact finishes off proceedings with a progressive dread-march through the stars, incorporating some snap and groove between the wobbed out low-end flex. The EP really highlights why 3WA is one of the most lauded in the scene for his innovative use of percussion and perfect mantra between light & dark, new & old.

Deathgrip / Miso Soup
Prepare yourself for an absolute sound system assault as Solidstates hit NICE UP! with two seismic 140 bangers, fresh off the back of their massive drops on N-Types Wheel And Deal records (including the notorious War Mi with grime icon Riko Dan). The Leeds/London collective consisting of Danny T & Tradesman, Finwa, Jakey Banton and Joe Knight bring their heavyweight production skills together, blending the rawest elements of dubstep and grime drawing inspiration from their early raving years at the legendary Subdub at the West Indian Centre. Deathgrip comes on like a lost Icerink-era Eski riddim, stark and relentless energy built for any MC daring enough to step up, whilst Miso Soup goes a bit heavier, sounding like it would detonate DMZ on any night of the week. One for true heads.
