What we say

Rating: ecstatic This record left our brian feeling ecstatic.

Runner up SOTW is the long awaited first installment in the Shockout Dancehall series. If Kid 606 twinned with The Bug doesn't make you wet your pants then I'll just have to wet 'em for you. 4 mixes of this most superb ragga splattered madness featuring the crazed rantings of Wayne Lonesome, entitled 'Buckle Up'. Kid 606's is more jungle orientated for Knifehandchop devotees amongst you while The Bug's is just more of the twisted & dark Dancehall genius we've come to expect. A superb record.

What the label says:

Shockout is the new Tigerbeat6 sublabel birthed to provide the world with the most subversive and intense mashups of ragga, dancehall, jungle and dub creations we can create. the first four 12"s will feature two artists doing mixes of all original vocals by jamaican born MC Wayne Lonesome trained under the guise of the legendary dancehall MC "tiger" and best known for his vocals on the Bug tracks "slew dem" (razor x's third 7") and "fuck y'self" (from "pressure") wayne lonesome has been described as a snaketoothed venomous dancehall helion spitting out verses and lyrics like they were bullets from a machine gun. Kid606 raises the stakes on side A with his over the top original mix of "buckle up" clashing booming sub basses with twisted analog sirens and squelches amidst a downpour of drill n bass junglist warfare before cooling it down a 100 degrees for a laid back contemplative groovy but still thundering version with a steady tabla driven pulse and more focus on the vocals interaction with the almost arabic droning instrumentation.

More dancehall then dancehll, The Bug mashes up Wayne Lonesome's infectious original cut into a distortion splattered sonic pulp. Sounding like Dillinja's big bad bass transmitted through a terminally overdriven sound rig, the Razor X style remix amplifies the sound of a thousand blown woofers into a body pummeling rib cage rocker. Half speed jungle meets full speed ragga, The Bug rises to the challenge of the label's ShockOut motto with a brimfull of yardcore violence to match Wayne's verbal threats. No less aggressive, yet appropriately more spacious, the 'Dub Mix' recalls the gory days of On-U-Sound's finest audio abbatoir, as the spectre of Mark Stewart's Maffia is viscerally invoked by transporting Kingston's ghetto warfare into white noise central for a deathmatch soundclash..
