Forthcoming in March 2010

Press Release

A Founding partner of Mutate Records: Super Deejay Bobzilla is quite literally overjoyed to offer out his first full release on his rather spiffing label.

'I Usually Don't Do Dis' or I.U.D.D.D. as we lovingly call it here at Mutate HQ is a mouthwatering package of diverse styles from some of Electronic Dance Music's fostered sons.

The Original Mix takes you into the twisted, broken mind of Super Deejay Bobzilla himself, a purveyor of the jump-up funk since he was in nappies/dypers (delete as applicable). This full release on his beloved Mutate follows the huge success of his track 'Rip Dat Shit' on the highly acclaimed 'Mutations Vol 3' compilation.

Drafted in for remix duties are new additions to the Mutate Family: Perpetual Present who open up the remix package with a solid, tuff tech driven breaks remix, already receiving seriously high acclaim from many evangelists of bass.

Those bastions (or is that basterds?!) of the Breaks scene: Ben & Lex, deliver a big time, twist out breaks remix that, once again, stamps their authority as one of the breaks scene's freshest production teams and deserved Breakspoll winners.

This week: Down 3, at 3, are Unique 3 ' Edzy's signature big boom sound transforms the original into a big tent rave offering that just can't wait to be released on the twisted festival crowds this summer.

In at 4 ' Disco Assassins with their fresh as you like electro beat bonanza, aimed directly at those big room, prime slot dancefloors.

Adding some serious Sheffield Steel is our favourite closet circuit bender: Kickflip. This full release version is the 28th recording of his mix, such a perfectionist is this man, which is simply why he's one of the most talented producers in the country.

Kicking in the back door is Casual Bill ' lifting the middle finger at the breakbeat rulebook, before unleashing the oversized beats is a Texan who is set become a familiar name on the lips of bass lovers worldwide.

Taken from the Thank NuFunk Its Friday Blog'

Fresh from picking up their award for Best Podcast I have an awesome remix by these guys which sounds nothing like their usual style. As well as running their successful Ape Music label and brand Ben & Lex are the long serving residents of Beatz & Bobz which has been running in Exeter now for around 13 years. These guys are renowned all over for being fine purveyors of making and playing hard edged breaks which smashes dancefloors to bits. This track that they've made available for download however is a remix for Plymouth DJ Aldo Vanucci and is a really nice funked up affair featuring vocals from Amie J. It came out on Good Living Records last year but can be yours for free by checking out the link below.

Press Release

Ben & Lex are back again and this time making their debut for the awesome Rocstar label with this killer 'Mixmag Breakbeat Single Of The Month'.

Unless you have been asleep under a barrell for the last few months you will have seen that the busiest men in breaks have been beavering away non-stop dropping some killer remixes but now they are back with no doubt their biggest original release so far!!

'All Da Breakz owes a large debt to the mischief and mayhem of bass music. Neo junglist steppa beats begin a marauding romp that takes in a dirty burrowing reesey bassline, jump up bashment vibes, hardcore hiphop MCing, Casio bleeps, Grandmaster Flash, dog whistles, and maybe even the kitchen sink! '

With all the elements set squarely at 'party' this tune is a stone cold killer with plays from all the usual suspects including Annie Nightingale on her award wining BBC Radio 1 show as well as on the floor as proven at Breakspoll 2010.

'All the Breakz is the best attempt at a cut and paste club track I've heard for a while, forging together breakbeats from original funk and old skool through to dubstep.' Pete Jordan. IDJ

For 'Soundboy Step Up' the dastardly duo turn in a breaksy/dubstep crossover banger with all the throw ya horns up bravado of a rock anthem. Rasta snips & badman bass combine for a proper dub rave mashup! Fitting somewhere between Tayo and the Bassbin Twins if heavy dub bass music is ya bag then this is for you

2010 is set to be their biggest year so far so keep 'em peeled for more new material coming your way real soon. Blap!!

Magazine Reviews

Mixmag ' Tune of the Month 5/5

DJ Mag ' 4.5/5

The dastardly Exeter breaks twosome really deserve some breaks themselves, as they've been beavering away at the coalface for ages, and 'All Da Breakz' owes a large debt to the mischief and mayhem of bass music. Neo junglist steppa beats begin a marauding romp that takes in a dirty burrowing bassline, jump up bashment vibes, hardcore hip-hop MCing, Casio bleeps, Grandmaster Flash samples, high-pitched dog whistles, and maybe even the kitchen sink. It's a boss tune, and on 'Soundboy Step Up' they turn in an equally well-worked dubstep piece.

4.5/5

Jinx In Dub

Tippa Tap (Functional)

Bristol fiend Jinx indulges his love of dub on this side-project, and the conquering lion kicks 'Tippa Tap' off with a straight-up skank and a Haile Selassie sample as it drops into reggae. It develops a breakbeat shuffle in the second part, and label chief Biff's Exeter cronies Ben & Lex turn it into a wicked dubsteppy piece, complete with old skool breakbeats and Detroit chords. Great smokin' material.

SCRATCH PERVERTS

Tony Vegas, Prime Cuts and Plus One are the Scratch Perverts ' a name that has become synonymous with HipHop and battle DJing ever since their formation in 1996. Their reputation as one of the world's most progressive DJ collectives is unparalleled; two consecutive World DMC Team titles, Plus One's World DMC Champion and World Vestax Champion titles, Prime Cut's back to back World ITF Scratching crowns, and countless showcases and gigs all over the world.

Although they may have retired from battling indefinitely, the Perverts have lost none of their supercharged competitive spirit.
The creative energy and enthusiasm that the Perverts exude is quite something, through all their schizophrenic influences and lofty ideals you get the feeling that they will harness and channel their combined creativity into something very special.

http://www.myspace.com/scratchperverts

'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

JACK BEATS

A multiple DMC Award winning DJ duo made up of DJ Plus One of Scratch Perverts and Ben Geffin from The Mixologists. They have had an immediate and profound effect on the club scene since teaming up in 2007; producing transcendent remixes for La Roux and Florence & The Machine amongst others and releasing their genre bending 'U.F.O' EP on Hervé's Cheap Thrills Records.

Citing influences as diverse as Timbaland, Rage Against the Machine, A Guy Called Gerald and Sebastian, the two began to hone a style fusing House, Hip Hop, Drum & Bass and Dubstep with Electro and Baltimore Club, and what emerged was a cutting edge sound. The duo demanded immediate attention after their gob-smacking take on Boy 8-Bit's anthem 'Fogbank' dropped in early 2008 followed by refixes of Trip's guitar-driven 'Who's That?' and the now classic AC Slater remix.

Support from major industry players Zane Lowe, Annie Mac (who has played almost everything they have produced|) and the Crookers plus the whole of blog-land have taken them to the next level in 09. They are currently finishing off their last remix of the year to start work on their debut album which will be released May 2010 and the duo aim to be headlining festivals soon after.

UTAH SAINTS

Utah Saints are DJ Tim and Jez Willis, and have been DJ-ing dance music since the birth of house music. Unlike many other successful acts who have turned their skills to DJ-ing, Utah Saints were DJ's first and foremost before they had world-wide success with their production, remixes and of course Utah Saints. Having had numerous top 10 hits, over the last 15 years, Utahs are still at the top of their game, as DJs and producers. Currently signed to Ministry of Sound / Data and remixing for the likes of the Twang, Utahs continue to be an essential name is dance music.

RESO

Reso is a rising star, gaining worldwide notoriety for his technoid inspired productions which often transcend the dubstep tag that many have easily slotted him into. Reso's aural identity is a densely layered, high octane tapestry, rich with musical texture and colour, which sets him apart from the minimal sparseness of many of his fellow producers.

Press Release

Kiss My Bass returns with an action packed bass heavy package headed up with the latest from breaks/house crossover boys JOKR. Their most recent track On Point was well received on Dusted Breaks and since their sound matches our vibe perfectly we were quick to snap them up! The resulting EP is one of non stop dance floor belters, each with their own slightly different take. Suffice to say there will be one for your occasion.

As ever your feedback is really appreciated so please take the time to hit the reply button and let us know what you think and which mixes you intend to inflict upon the world.

The original mix hits the nail on the head in terms of the kind of variety Kiss My Bass is all about. Fresh off the back of our electro house led debut and the massively played electro dubstep follow up Wub Steppin we thought we'd slap a bit of breaks flavoured house your way.

The first remix comes from the hardest working men in the South (UK of course!) messrs Ben and Lex. We're very happy to have the boys on board and they don't disappoint with a big grimey breaksy bassline wobbler (deep breath).

As Udy's remix of the last JOKR track was so well received it only seemed right to get him in on the action. A typically schizophrenic remix keeps the dance floor interested and shows why he is currying favour with a lot of rave DJs at the moment.

Brooklyn's Mr Vega is no stranger to the label, with his previous tracks for KMB blowing up BIG. Always a pleasure to have him involved and and massive electro house style lead infused with the spirit of wobble.

The final mix will be the first we send out to the blogs and have for free download just to kick off the hype. Again it's some label favourites that take the honour with Knob Jockeys heading up the task force. Their remix of our last EP saw us get 1Xtra play due to them being featured on Rusko's show and once again they show why they're a massive upcoming talent. Impossible to pin down, it's probably best you just listen to it!

Dub Pistols 'Ganja'

From an album that boasts stylings of soul, funk, hip-hop and pop among others, the Dub Pistols once again deliver a fine example of their extensive musical influences with their 3rd single 'Ganja'.

Taken from their 4th album 'Rum & Coke', the single is helmed by UK hip-hop legend Rodney P, who works his lyrics into an original blend of dub, hip-hop and reggae with a feel-good, laid-back groove. Ganja? They've never touched the stuff!

With the legendary status that Barry, Jason and the boys have built up over the years, remixer's were lining up to take this one for a spin, and we're not disappointed. New producer on the scene Toby Toast proves his worth with a beautifully down-tempo electronic re-working, while Hip-hop legend Skitz hardens things up with added vocals from Deadly Hunter. Atomic Hooligan, 2 Bit Thugs and Ben and Lex represent the breaks contingent, delivering some equally leg-wobbling bass lines and beats. As always, the Sunday Best Remix proves a firm DJ favourite with a fresh cosmic disco edge.

With a frenetic winter tour of Australia, Asia and Europe under their belts, the band embark on their 'Ganja Tour' of the UK in March, culminating in a headline show at London's KoKo. The summer of 2010 is already looking busy with a host of festival dates confirmed and many more to come.

Ganja will be available as a digital download, tracklisting below.
