Following on from the first release, Area recordings offers up another split release from Be-1ne & Lysergene (mastering by DubStudio).

Showing the versatility of their sounds Be-1ne show cases his deeper more dance floor style with the dub wise "Double Meaning", with its stomping kicks and weighty bass this tune is as much for the dance floor groove as it is for the living room. Lysergene pushes his sound further with this dark monster of a tune. "Inner Workings" comes with its own techy flavour moving stealthily with broody atmospherics for those eyes down moments in a dance.

For those of you interested in hearing the same loop over and over again on vinyl, there are two options: get a record, scratch it with a rusty pair of scissors and hope that one of the grooves gets stuck, or: order a dubplate of locked grooves from Dub Studio.

A locked groove is simply a recorded

April was a big month here at Dub Studio - after 6 years cutting dubplates we finally took the plunge and cut our first set of master lacquers! We received a test pressing and its sounding good - we will publish more details when the vinyl is released but here is a sneak preview:

Dub Studio has changed! We now have a completely new way of ordering, which gives more flexibility then ever. You can now add products and services to your cart, then carry on browsing and check out whenever you are ready. The prices shown on the site are for one side of a dub, but you can easily add a second side, or extra tracks - your cart will automatically update giving the total price. Bulk discounts are clearly shown but feel free to add products to your cart to see how much the final order will cost.

Shipping rates have also changed - instead of a flat fee they are now based on the Royal Mail system of price by weight and destination. This is part of Dub Studio's continued effort to be a truly international service.

We would also like to welcome Hazel to the team. She will be handling orders, files and bookings - giving Henry and Boris more time to focus on mastering and the technical side of things! Things might be a little bumpy at first, as we sort out the teething problems with the new system, so please let us know anything you think needs improving.

The Dub Studio Team - Henry, Boris and Hazel

Dub Studio is proud to feature one of its latest Mastering projects!

Stainage Records launches its free download offshoot – Stainage Off The Records, offering 2 tracks each month produced in its members' secret audio labs in Belgium.

'What you see and what you hear it's for real', you've been warned. Dense cinematic atmos and piercing basslines confront with razor sharp beats setting the tone for a steppy trip through Grimelock's sonic view of 'Dog Politik'.

The story is continued with 'Gorilla March' alongside Alchemyst. Dub heavy pads and stabs coming straight from a big rave flashback that echoes and glows until the bass drops and the beats kick in pumping out the air out of your lungs.

Not a bit of cheese in this pair but pure merciless frequency flows ready to get into your mind and take you far away. Off the records...
