DIRTY DUBSTERS feat. BASS NACHO & BLACKOUT JA: Real Bad Boys (2013)

Bad boys, bad boys, whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do when they come for you? – asked Inner Circle back in ’87. It’s been a long time coming but the answer is obviously to rework the track in a digi-dancehall, nasty-ass bass stylee, call it Real Bad Boys and send it out the front to deal with ‘them’ while you scarper out the back. Which is basically what Dirty Dubsters have done – as well as replacing Calton Coffie’s irie vocals with the rather more ominous Bass Nacho and Blackout JA. While all that’s going on, Run Tingz‘ junglist remix …READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

DIRTY DUBSTERS: ‘Fire It Up’ album (2013)

Please don’t adjust your seismographs – all that intense activity is just the Dirty Dubsters‘ debut album. Fire It Up finds the boys who put the ‘dub’ into Dublin lighting up the bottom end bong to finally make (split infinitive intentional) their first full-length journey into outer bass. Production crew are the Dubsters themselves of course while vocal crew are guests: Mystro, Leiko Tola, YT, Clinton Sly, Turbulence, Danny Red, Burro Banton, Sista Quanna and the mighty Blackout JA and Bass Nacho. I don’t know about you but I think it’s time for a ‘Byron Crawford’ track by track analysis – haven’t done one of them in a while. Here goes:…READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

DIRTY DUBSTERS feat. BASS NACHO: Bend Down Low (2012)
The dream team of Dirty Dubsters and Floridian rasta vocalist Bass Nacho return for another cut with Bend Down Low. And indeed ‘Bend down low’ is exactly Nacho’s exhortation over the skankin’ bit before the buzzsaw bass kicks in on this ragga-breaks monster. ‘Bend down where?’ Are we in a prison shower or something? Oh – it’s aimed at…READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

DIRTY DUBSTERS feat. Bass Nacho: Mr Brown – 2011
Rating 5/5
The Dirty Swingers EP might have been the ‘Dubsters first release since the mighty Big Tings but this huge Marley-fied booty is its spiritual successor. It’s such an obviously gargantuan club hit and call to the dancefloor that its pull must rival the gravitational effect of a medium-sized planet. Drop this in a club and even the wallflowers will be helplessly…READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

DIRTY DUBSTERS feat. BASS NACHO – Big Tings (Mr Benn remix)
Calling your tune Big Tings is a bit like when a pub quiz team calls itself ‘This week’s winners,’ it often goes hand in hand with mediocre performance and… well, frankly it’s a bit cocky isn’t it. Having said that though, if I’d made this tune I’d be very cocky for it is a very big ting indeed. I could tell you that this is a huge bouncing skank of a floor filler,
