Roots and culture styyyyle from Bristol's Rob Smith aka RSD. This one, a live mix done for BTTB radio April 26th, 2009. Long before Bristol had become a recognized stronghold for downtempo trip-hop and spy-soundtrack dubs, the duo of Rob Smith and Ray Mighty teamed in the late '80s for two early breakbeat tracks, "Walk on By" and "Anyone Who Had a Heart." The anachronistic fusion of sophisticated Burt Bacharach productions with laidback hip-hop prefigured trip-hop's later fascination with the more polished end of '60s adult-pop. Rob then moved on to create his own label and productions as well, weaving together the vast influences of reggae, drum n bass, breaks, and dub under the monicker RSD. Deeply rooted sounds on this one...keep your chalwah close. DJG remix of Don Carlos Late Night Blues is pure vibes. You can DL the remix HERE thanks to MediaContender.

Here we got a set from El-B & J Da Flex for Ramp radio on May 2nd which features a minimix from J Da as well as a preview of some of the new Ghost tunes forthcoming on the new album. When it began around 2000, dubstep was a darker hybrid of garage devised primarily by El-B's Ghost, Zed Bias, and Horsepower... EL-B started producing low-key Techno tracks in the early 90's but made his name as the creative force behind the legendary UK Garage production unit 'Groove Chronicles'.... After countless remixes and soulful classics EL began his solo project 'Ghost' recordings...the rest is history. Looking forward to the new LP.
