Dabrye - Get Dirty

Get Dirty by Dabrye

4...according to our on Thu 14 Feb, 2008.

Quick mention must go to the latest Ghostly International release: Dabrye's 'Get Dirty' EP Features hip hop legends MF DOOM and the late great Jay Dee, AG and Phat Kat. Much like the Harmonic 313 Detroit styled hip hop moves these kuts include highly addictive analogue key lines, acidic squiggles and fleet-of-foot beat programming that'll get the moves going on any intelligent (or stoopid if you will, heheehe!) minded floor. Includes mixes by Kode 9 and Flying Lotus, it'll appeal to fans of dub stepping, Detroit bounce or abstract hip hop flows. The flip contains the instrumentals, but check Dooms flows yo! priceless as ever.

Dabrye has been in the shadows, creating the next wave of beats to unleash upon the world, but not before unleashing a few more nuggets to keep the fans fed. Get Dirty is from the Two/Three album sessions, a club-style banger that features the characteristic brag of the legendary A.G. Dabrye’s gritty, parping bass sound has been modernized, or “Blade Runner’d” into a mutant squelch for this choice cut.

LA’s Flying Lotus is making waves as the new face of Warp Records and he brings a characteristically powerful and halting remix of the immortal Jay Dee and Phat Kat’s Game Over, a more apocalyptic take on the classic tune, but no less funky than the original.

Kode9, boss of London's Hyperdub Records brings his dubstep rhythms to Doom’s masterful Air verse, and the results are as tense as you’d expect. Machine gun beats and pummeling bass keep the noir edge of the original and add a layer of suspense to the verse, fit for the club or deep subway headphone sessions.
