Ability II, Luca Lozano, DJ Steve - My Definition of Bass (Klasse Wrecks) 12inch
Klasse Wrecksから当店的に会心の一枚が到着! 名コンピRichard Sen編「This Ain’t Chicago」やFabio & Grooverider編「30 Years Of Rage」にも収録された、言わずもがなのブリープ大名曲「Pressure Dub」でおなじみのAbility IIと、Luca Lozano & DJ Steveによる共同作品です。 ジャッキン〜アシッドでブリーピーなWrecksサイド(A面)も抜群ですが、やはりココで推したいのはItal RockersやOriginal Rockersライン〜90sUKニュールーツを継ぐのI9Mサイド(B面)。ブリープ音、飛ばしまくりのラップ調声ネタ、控えめなアシッド・シンセ等々堪りません。UKダンス好事家は必聴ですよ。※Ability IIのレゲエ〜ダブMIX絶妙→
WRECKS WRADIO - FORWARD MIX - ABILITY II
”Leeds Bleep-techno royalty Ability II aka David Duncan has been on the Wrecks radar for a few years now, the unison dating back to Luca Lozano’s remix of his evergreen anthem ‘Pressure’ in 2017. Since the remix the communication has stayed open and talks of a collaboration started, linking generations old and new. That collaboration, recorded over a couple of years and a couple of studios, results in WRECKS057 ‘My Definition of Bass’. Four tracks split into two sides, the WRECKS side is taken care of by Lozano and long time collaborator and friend DJ Steve. The two producers live jammed sketches, recorded the sessions and then incorporated original vocals by Ability II, churning out acid wiggles and jacking drum tracks. Ability then took these versions and then dubbed them out in his crossover style for the I9M side, resulting in two steppers made for the strictly for the bassbins. Echoing vocal layers and new instrumentation takes them out of the usual ‘wrecks wrealm’ and into new, dubbier territories."
