We at ZamZam have long been fans of Schlachthofbronx's genre-smashing club
tracks that harness and hybridize bass music styles from Germany, UK,
Jamaica, Mexico, Brazil, and beyond. But when we heard the dark dub of last
year's "Blurred Vision" we knew we had to reach out. Little did we know the
duo was already into ZamZam, paving the way to an eagerly anticipated release
championed on dubplate by selectors from The Bug to O.B.F. to Toddla T.
The Munich pair's ZamZam pushes a sound that's intutive and familiar, yet
unlike anything else out there. Schlachthofbronx have carved out an
absolutely unique and steely-eyed take on punishing dubwise informed not only
by post-punk, house, electro, industrial, and traditional dub reggae
principles, but by the legendary 60,000 watt Elemental Wave rig they host
their Blurred Vision night on. Imagine an alternative musical universe where
PIL, Mad Professor, and Basic Channel hole up in the Batcave for a
pitch-black sound system rave and you're getting the picture.
Dun Dem's ring-modulating lead works its way into unsuspecting ears while the
projectile kick drum calls in an extended intro that builds into one of the
most satisfying drops we've ever heard in a steppers tune. A blackened
bassline of pure dub fire drives galloping clave and 4/4 sleigh bells deeper
and deeper into a flooded cavern of reverb and dark delights.
Soundbad is more maximal minimalism, wringing super-saturated color from
deceptively simple elements, marrying a massive dub bassline to smeared white
noise snares and rockers hi hats, twisting and rebounding lasers and warped
FX into claustrophobic reverb traps.
Both tunes were tested, worked, & reworked through Schlachthofbronx' non-stop
global touring schedule. Results in the dance speak for themselves - we think
you'll have trouble knowing which side to reach for first. Do you want a
sound system missile, or a sound system bomb??
