Label / Youth
Category / UK Steppers
Code / YOU7E

Soundsystem murder from Paris-via-new Berlin, aka Stockport, inna style and fashion somewhere between Jah Shaka, The Bug, NPLGNN, TNT Roots and Ossia. new from YOUTH. ‘Kitakagaya Dub I & II’ catches shapeshifting studio guy Krikor Kouchian on a mad and heavy one with spar, Element, churning up worm-charming subs galvanised with metallic noise and the sort of snares that will knock your fillings out. Cut for optimal impact on 7”, the A-side uncoils on a sort of slamming momentum distinctive to UK steppers’ mutations, and which would feed forward into bleep techno by the turn of the’90s, guiding the principles of John T. Gast’s 5 Gate Temple in the modern day, simply going on relentless with pounding subs and augmented in the red by shearing, distorted, atonal electronics certain to cut across nasty on a big rig. The B-side version slips down a gear on the half step to open out the FX in corkscrewing plongs, precipitating a teef-baring mentasm and distorted, duppy-howl sirens in the 2nd half. Damn effective business.
