Our first release is a standard-bearer for the twinned dub and dance aspects of this philosophy, keeping a clear distance from the raging wars of ultra-wobbled-mega-synths, with melody and narrative given prominence to generate equal pleasure either in the mix or on the stereo.

Veteran French electronic & dub producer Led Piperz offers gritty and forward-looking bass for the floor with ‘Aerial’, built around a thudding but complex perpetual motion break that doesn’t follow the rules, so be warned, it’s not one for the warm-up session. With echoes of the syncopated spaces of drum & bass, this rich rythmic and melodic cut is sure to be a fixture in the clubs for months to come. Conversely, as it’s title suggests, ‘Otherside Dub’ places dub dynamics at the fore, with hymnal rastaman vocal loops, intricate bass layerings, raw snares and uncompromised musical variations, all driven by an awesome low-end engine.

‘Otherside Remix (Earth Is My Spaceship)’ is Boxcutter’s stone in the massive wall of sound Airflex Labs aims to construct block by block. His spacey, lush and dynamic remix of ‘Otherside Dub’ is rootical proof that the best of today’s sound is made by those wise enough to keep the past in mind. Although the track will also appear on his new Planet Mu CD, this 12” is the only place where it will be located on vinyl.
