Dubplate Drama - Season 1, Episode 1 - Sample Heavy



Side A - Perfect produced by Ray Juss

This track was a cut up of a few Todd Edwards tracks. At the time I was experimenting with the 4x4 side of garage and to be honest, stealing other peoples sounds and trying to make them my own. Perfect was something I was pretty proud of at the time and decided to cut it although it didn't really fit into the type of garage I was playing at the time. This track also featured on my only vinyl release, Rushgroove Vol 1. This dubplate version has an extra set of hi hats in it making it a kind of exclusive.



Side B - All Stars (Full Vocal Mix) produced by Ray Juss


Round the time of making this, there was a fashion for making multi drop tunes as made famous buy the Pay As You Go crew and DJ Slimzee. I wanted to have my own type but I used acapellas from records I had that would fit in the garage tempo. The beat was fashioned from a Lil Kim record that I heard out in Canada whilst on holiday and the spin back between each vocal was an idea of a friend of mine, Amish. He came round on the Saturday I was making it and from there it stuck. The instrumental version became quite famous getting plays on Choice FM from DJ Chrissy G. Oh and the 'outraygeous' vocal sample came from one of those Stephen Hawkins esq computer programs!
