Couldn't let one of our favourite Hip-hop crews ever drop a free EP without putting up a link for you guys at least. Slug is one of the few rappers left who can pluck those emotional strings better than many of the singers out there.

As you might well be aware by now, Stagga drops his Sick As Sin EP on Rag & Bone next week (30th March). Gonna be gigantic, here's the press release for it:

"For their 21st release, Rag & Bone have pulled out all the stops. Welsh producer Stagga bursts onto the dubstep scene with a refreshingly new take on things. With a history in hip-hop and coming fresh from a debut release on Rossi B & Luca’s Rudeez imprint of ‘Jacqueline/Policeman Get Hype’, Stagga serves up 3 indisputable slabs of wonkiness.

‘Sick As Sin’ is the big hitter with it’s centrepiece phrase “Dropping you out like a bong of smack and waking you up like a bong of crack” courtesy of the vocal talents of Skamma: it’s got big tune written all over it.

On the flip ‘Predatory Control Freeks’ is a different matter altogether. Wise utterings on the sinister intentions of the new world architects drift in and out of an eerie soundtrack. Meanwhile ‘Freight Dub’ gets deep on a smokers vibe. It’s swathes of spooky synths blend perfectly with some hypnotic banter.

These tracks have already seen early support from the likes of Mary Anne Hobbs (Radio 1), Starkey (Planet Mu) and Sub FM DJs with more to follow."

Check Stagga's Myspace to hear these tracks, plus here's a little non EP special for you all too.

With artists such as Cappo, Scor-zay-zee, The P Brothers and Joe Buddah, Nottingham was always one of the leading cities in the UK Hip-hop scene, but recently there's been a few Dubstep producers from the area that have been catching our ears. One of them is Ill Boding who made the leap from Hip-hop to Dubstep within the last year or so and has just dropped a duttyfied 5 track EP (plus Intro) which he's passing out for free from his Myspace (or you can grab it below). At the moment he's on the look out for MCs to collaborate with and these solid productions would owe themselves nicely to that so if you're on that vibe then make sure you hit him up. He's also working on a joint project with fellow Notts artists Crackertoa, N.A.T. and Klassic so we shall be looking out for that one in future for definite. Here's a couple of our choice cuts from the EP. If you want the whole thing then grab it here.

Following up from the heavy mix we posted a little while back from Ninja Tune's new signing Shuttle (previously Etan), we've got a brand new track which looks set to get some major play here at Chrome Mansions from the forthcoming EP 'Tunnel' dropping 16th March. Rotten Guts also features Cadence Weapon, an ideal pairing really as they both add extra depth to the dancefloor (and indeed elevate beyond it) in what they do.

oops sorry forgot to post the track!

The future is not bright. It’s a place where fantasy and fury combine as post nuclear life becomes more brutal the further we send our machines to seek out more habitable environments underground. As they dig deeper into the realm of myth and legend, there must inevitably be a showdown between a vicious reality and the dark corners of imagination.


I think High Rankin might just be getting ready for that future, if he’s not there already. His latest EP on Suicide Dub – ‘You Me & The Devil’ has some of the toughest and grimiest dubz this side of Satansville and for those who didn’t grab a free copy over at Palms Out last month. Here it is in full flaming glory for you now.
