ARTIST: Crazy Titch
TITLE: Singalong
LABEL: In the Hood Recordings
CAT: ?
5/5
East Londons Crazy Itch returns with another vocal
masterpiece, this time riding along one of the most interesting pieces from the
vocal grime scene. With deep gut wrenching bass lines the last thing you expect
to hear are the delicate orchestral rhythms in place. A clash and harmony at
the same time which really grabs your mind. D

TITLE: Dead Letter Drop
LABEL: white

5/5
A very sneaky little number here. More towards the 8 bar-ish
grime, lots and lots of rolling breaks that just continue to stack throughout.
Old school samples and a blatant Drexcyia sample that really takes the track to
another level. These will be hard to find, but it really is worth scouring the
planet for.

Title: Destiny
Label: ?
Cat no. ?
Marks: 4/5
German based Dj Maxximus returns with more bass antics in
the shape of ‘Destiny’.
The track kicks off with ragga vocal pinches backed up by
tight skipping electro beats. Then out
of no where comes a roaring hoover nose-bleed of a bassline. The flip is the same tune but fetures no
beats but does have plenty angry bass stabs and low-end sub punches.

Title: Reason
Label: ?
Cat no. ?
Marks: 4/5
Another fresh slab of bass heavy bouncers from the one like
Dj Maxximus. The beats are on a simple
electro grime ragga tip and the squashy bassline sounds like an angry swarm of
South-American killer bees. This all
sits nicely under the sublime but moody chatting of MC Soomt. Quality tracks -
keep ‘em coming Maxximus.
