our friend DJ Oneman anounces the launch of his new label, simply called 502. Expect nothing less than greatness.

Lil Silva - No Hooks

Lil Silva - No Hooks Lil Silva's tribute to Kenny Dope originally came out on white label 12" on Night Slugs earlier this year. Those whites have all but sold out so to celebrate the release of his new "Night Skanker" EP, we've decided to give the track away: edit - new link LIL SILVA - NO HOOKS (320) Out today, the Night Skanker EP features 4 brand new, synth-heavy tracks from Lil Silva that signal a progression from his roots in up-front UK funky.

win a dubplate of Girl Unit's IRL!

GIRL UNIT - I.R.L (Dubplate)
This coming monday sees the release of Girl Unit's incredible "IRL" EP featuring the title track that is driving London crazy. With heavy support form top-ranking DJs and intense anticipation from everyone else, it's safe to say we're excited about this record. So much so that we've decided to give away the dubplate you can see being cut in the above video to one lucky Night Slugs/ Girl Unit fan. This is a one-off accetate dubplate of "IRL" with another track from the forthcoming EP called "Shade On" on the flip. It was lovingly cut at Music [...]

Slackk - Eski House Mix

Slackk - Eski House Mix When house started building a home in the UK underground around 2007, there was a lot of excitement about the new lease of life it might bring to grime production, which had become rhythmically weary, reduced to a less expressive, less experimental formula by its own failure to hold sway on London dancefloors. No grime raves meant no reason to make dancefloor-shocks; producers either gave up altogether or resorted to unimaginative retreads and 'bait hip-hop' (those words were inseparable on RWD/Grimeforum for about two years). 2007/8 presented great opportunities for grime's first generation to bring their avant-garde motifs and dynamism [...]

GIRL UNIT MIX 2010

GIRL UNIT 's already anthemic track "I R L" will be dropping on Night Slugs at the end of April. His new promo mix is as epic in scope as his influences, and pretty much presents in an hour everything that makes Night Slugs tick: vibes from London via Chicago, Detroit, The Hague, Soweto, into outer space. The juke segment at the end of the mix is particularly on point - There's been a wave of interest in the Chicago ghetto style out here recently, much of it fuelled by Addison Groove's incredible [...]

SAVE PLASTIC PEOPLE

SAVE PLASTIC PEOPLE "THE POLICE ARE TRYING TO SHUT DOWN PLASTIC PEOPLE There is a notice outside the door saying there are 2 reasons why the Police want to take the license away. 1/ PREVENTION OF PUBLIC NUISANCE 2/ PREVENTION OF CRIME ANTI DISORDER Plastic People have until the 11th March to appeal." KEEP PLASTIC PEOPLE ALIVE Facebook group Yet another example of the well-documented prejudice against London's underground music scene. Several times at FWD I remember police visits, a van waiting outside just watching for something [...]

Ayobaness (The Sound Of South African House)

Ayobaness (The Sound Of South African House) Bigup Outhere Records for putting out a release of truly massive African house bangers. I've been looking for a good copy of Mujava's "Mugwanti / Sgwejegweje", otherwise known as Please Mugwanti, for what feels like years now! It's shocking to see how little of this stuff gets a proper release, so for that reason this one is even more welcome. I first heard Kode9 play this and thought it was a Lil Silva refix of Masters At Work, because the drums are so hard and stripped down and the vocal is riffing on the theme [...]

BRAIDEN - Journey Home

BRAIDEN - Journey Home As well as close Night Slugs fam, Braiden is also one of our favourite London DJs. For his contribution to our podcast series, Braiden has put together a specially themed mix that showcases some of his key influences - synth-heavy old-skool electro, boogie-funk and technicolor-saturated techno. For many of the current crop of UK producers and DJs, Drexciya has been just as important as Tuff Jam, So Solid or DMZ - their music resonates with the vibes of Detroit as much as those of London. Braiden's mixtape is peppered with a few modern-day synth-n-bass bangers too, [...]

4 classic Geeneus riddims

4 classic Geeneus riddims This ain’t Sinogrime , but it comes from the same place. Rinse FM have just quietly given away four fantastic Geeneus/Wizzbit instrumentals from grime’s golden era - lost treasures unearthed from the irresistible late-garage/early-grime bleed period. Gee and Wizzbit are the same person of course - I never was clear what the pseudonym was about, since the sound is interchangable. The tracks are: Geeneus - Raggo Geeneus - Poltergeist Remix Geeneus - Midnite Remix Wizzbit - Aquarius Remix Download the pack here. It’s exactly the unimpeachable DJ-led rollage we [...]

United Groove - Kingdom Remix

London Orient: Kode9 Sinogrime Minimix

London Orient: Kode9 Sinogrime Minimix "Canary Wharf is like our Statue of Liberty," Roll Deep producer Target once said. "It pushes me on. It's like all the money is there and it's an inspiration to get your own." London Shanghai Sinogrime is a sub-genre that barely ever existed, a momentary glitch in the supposedly predictable sonic geography of London dance music. Around 2002-3, with garage crumbling and the cement still drying on grime as a genre, a few producers in E3 suddenly lurched [...]

RIP Dress 2 Sweat / Numbers power moves

RIP Dress 2 Sweat / Numbers power moves OK I admit I'm biased. But ever since their first release of booty, bmore and club bass edits, Dress 2 Sweat has been one of my favourite labels. Earlier this month myself and L-Vis had the pleasure of dropping the final ever Dress 2 Sweat release in the form of the Night Slugs EP . D2S isn't over however - it's across-the-board party aesthetic will last on as they amalgamate with sister labels Stuff Records and Wireblock to form Numbers Records, a move that will see them basically taking over Glasgow/ the world. All [...]
