VARIOUS DUBZ


A couple of weeks back I received another surprise package from the mysterious Various Production, containing two 12 inch singles and, as usual, no cover note or press release. The four tracks on offer are all instrumentals and they're all heavy-duty dubstep workouts of epic proportions. So I thought I'd better tell everyone to buy them...but then I checked at Boomkat to discover that these are strictly limited editions of 100 copies each, that they have already sold out, and will probably never be available again in this form! I gather that vocal versions will appear on their debut album, forthcoming on XL Recordings. On the strength of these 'backing tracks', its gonna be a mind-scrambler...
