Ramadanman 'Revenue' b/w Untold remix back in stock

Our 7th release back in stock....
This is what Boomkat had to say about this release:

"2nd Drop pair up two fine dubstep operators with Ramadanman providing the goods on 'Revenue' to be remixed by Untold on the flip. Ramadanman carves up a killer rhythm balanced between Shackleton style percussive syncopations and T++ alike techy kinks while retaining his own slinky post-garage flavour. Untold's remix utilises a similar percussive palette as his recent Hessle release to resketch Ramadanman's rhythm in a more plasticky shade, with almost cartoonish melodies in the final strokes. Heavy plate."

AA: Ramadanman - 'Revenue' (Untold remix)

Nike x Size? Dave White: 10 Years of Obsession

For the past year Rosie Lee have helped Nike & size? with their 10 year collaboration celebrations; a year which so far has seen the release of 9 limited edition shoes. To coincide with the release of the tenth shoe and put the finishing touches on a fantastic year we were asked to organising a party. The evening was held at Dover St’s Air Gallery and featured all ten limited edition shoes and a one off piece of Dave White Artwork, which was broken into pieces and given away. Drinks, DJ’s and Sneaker heads all culminated in a top night to celebrate Nike & size? and their ongoing obsession with all things sneaker.

FACT mix 196: LV

Photobucket

LV were the first act to release on Hyperdub outside the trio of Kode9, Burial and The Bug, making their label debut with 2007’s ‘Globetrotting’, a collaboration with veteran reggae singer Errol Bellot. The years since have seen a steady stream of LV releases on Hyperdub, Hemlock, 2nd Drop and Keysound, with the London-based group content to stay casually in the shadows; the majority not knowing the members’ identity or background.
