Dubplate Drama - Season 1, Episode 8 - A G.C.S.E in Japanese will give you cool titles



Side A1 - Imosheroy produced by Greedykid

Apparently, the title of this track is a Japanese word. Google cannot find it so that goes that story out the window. Dance music always has strange names. At the height of Greedykid's production there was tracks like this coming out once a week. Its hard to put this track in with much else. Heavy hiphop esq drums but programmed in a slowed down UK Garage style. Its not a reload track but it is a nice piece of music.



Side A2 - Shizuka produced by Greedykid

Shizuka is another Japanese word. This one is a bit more popular in the ol' search results. My fave result was this one here. Brokenhomes are keen fans of Anime, (Fist of The North Star) Shizuka sounds like Godzilla made out of Meccano rigged up to the national grid. The bass is like Zilla sweeping down and chewing up some buildings. Empty sparse production, plenty of room for you to fill the gaps with your mind or new skanks.



Side B1 - Allstars Instrumental produced by Ray Juss


Most of what needs to be said was done so here. Here was the popular instrumental version. A hiphop 'stroke' Garage jam built for MCs before they started thinking about making rap tracks.



Side B2 - Grimey Hip Hop produced by Greedykid


This was a beat Louis had that was never finished or was ever going to be finished. Its just one of those loop tracks. All it needs is a vocal and it turns into an instant classic (somewhere). The noise after 16 bars is actually made from phone tones. Maybe it could dial people?! 555-....
