What we say

What the label says:

In their brief one year existence, Lo Dubs have arguably established themselves as the leading imprint of the USA’s emerging dubstep community, with a series of 12”s that have proved as consistent in their stylish presentation as they have in their status as “must-bag” releases for forward-thinking basshead selectors everywhere. Echoing Kode9’s informal manifesto to “give dubstep that which it thinks it is not”, Lo Dubs have already deliverered a volley of low-end weaponry which places class firmly in front of fashion, displaying a keen ear for that rare blend of the populist and the adventurous, plus a dynamic approach to runnin’ tings. Now  Lo Dubs present their first venture into CD,  ‘Analog Clash’, mixed in continous DJ format by LA’s 6Blocc, surely destined to become the Rosetta stone of the dubstep sound emanating from all regions of the Americas. From Toronto by way of DZ, Bombaman, XI, and the doom metal group Nadja (exclusively remixed by Vex’d), to Venezuela via Pachecko and Cardopusher, and back to the middle with Philadelphia’s own Starkey and the mighty South3rn of Texas, all the earth encompassing the continent is covered in a release that may very well be the first of it’s kind to represent the movement on the left side of the Atlantic. As a mix, 6Blocc has demonstrated once again his ability to thrill, compiling a one-hour-plus set that weaves through Lo Dubs’ diverse list of releases, in addition to a host of unheard recordings, many of which will be featured on 12”s in their own right in the coming months, thus continuing the cross pollination process. 6Blocc has just returned to LA from blazing a 30 date trail throughout Europe, playing many of these tracks on dubplate to huge crowd response. As a limited bonus, a second disc is included, containing all sides from every Lo Dubs vinyl release to date, in full CD audio format, mastered to perfection. As Lo Dubs is run from the back office of Portland (Oregon)’s Anthem Records store, they frown on digital distribution (hence ‘Analog Clash’), and this will be the only way any Lo Dubs releases will be available in such a high quality digital format
