Here's Darqwan on the fashion conscious Planet Mu label. Long gone are the days of electronica and now it's all dubstep this and that. Shame really cos they did a lot of really cool records back in the early days. Some of the new 'uns aren't so bad.... That Landstrumm LP was a bit useful..... quite liked that last Distance 12" 'n all. Anyway Darqwan does a dubstep thing with some nice echoey dub sounds in. It bimbles along nicely with some dub-esque vocals. If you're into information then I can tell you he's had things out before on Soulja and Storming to name just 2 labels. I kind of like this anyway (I fookin loves it - Antx). I just wish Planet Mu did their own thing a bit more... Maximum Reespek is 12" only and I believe it's street talk for maximum respect.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

*In 2007 Oris Jay's influence has never been more powerful, his dark sound
revolutionized the UK garage and breaks scenes and laid the foundations for
21st Century dubstep.. this is the boy who wrote the book..
*Tunes like `Said The Spider' and `Raisin Kane' cemented his reputation as a
dark garage master, and the creator of a sound that went on to form the first
blueprint for Dubstep,
*Following on from the revitalization of his label Texture last year, in 2007
Oris provides experimental label Planet Mu with 2 hot tunes which have been
supported on dub in recent months.
*"Maximum Reespek" has a melody that circles round your head and the heaviest
of breaks, whilst the flip "Ghost Not Memory" revives the skippiness of 2-Step
Garage with the added menacing bass of 07..
*Oris had a top 40 hit with his tune `Trippin' and he's collaborated with
everyone from Ms Dynamite to Rodney P, releasing records on labels including
Polydor, Tectonic, Planet Mu, EMI, Bingo, Storming Productions and Hospital
*Tracklist: A: MAXIMUM REESPEK B: GHOST NO MEMORY
