Souk / Crying Stones BASSREC006 by BassAssassins Records

Bassmusic veteran cYpher is back on Bassassassins Records with legendary and award-winning German Drum and Bass DJ Dash for his debut release full of hypnotic and mystical vibes to be treasured on dancefloors and headphones alike! On the flip there is a melodic and mental roller in the vein of Metalheadz, the warehouse days and Sci-Clone.
“Souk” is the first ever release of Dash on the production side standing out as a distinctive tune and sure mover. A far eastern flute lays down the foundations for a certified hypnotic roller with mystical atmospheres, percussive groove and sounds reminiscent of an ancient oriental market. The suspensive and DJ-friendly intro leads to a break enriched with buzzing Dub sounds, echoed vox-snips and a subtle skanking guitar-loop underneath. Driving crispy drums transfer to a stunning blend of deep pushing basslines that XXYYY The team-up of cYpher and Dash show their ability to produce subtle and breathtaking Drum and Bass sounds of positivity and togetherness which are particularly needed in these special times. Let’s all get lost into a better world!

“Crying Stones” sees an amalgamation of old-school influences combined with state-of-the-art rolling beats that will blow some minds for sure. A saxophone loop surrounds the musical space with warmth, while reversed chords accompanied by dangerous deep subs open the time tunnel to Jungle and the Hardcore Continuum. Wait for the huge breakdown with its dope FXs for even more head nodding bizz coming ruff with the smooth. Don’t sleep on this emotive and urban stepper!

Bassrec006 is all about old school ferocity with new school originality that will stand out in every DJ-set. Give your ears a break from that noisy world and get along with these two rolling smashers – pure vibes!
