Bok Bok & L-Vis 1990, “Night Slugs Dubplates 2009” Mixtape MP3

September 15, 2009


Brit badboys Bok Bok and L-Vis 1990 have been purveyors of some of our favorite music this year, between getting creative with new, self-coined genres (dubblestep? hyper bass?) and bodying dancefloors and headphones with their regular Night Slugs club nights and mix show on Sub.FM. They're about to drop a Night Slugs EP, so to promo it they made this mix of all their actual dubplates, most of which sounds like seeing yourself getting injected with adrenalin from the vein-and-blood cell point of view a la CSI/House. Sprung with boingy syncopated basslines, triumphant twerky synths, they're working in the most basic confines of genre—bassline, funky, garage, whatever—but have a super fresh, nigh cartoony approach that inspires energy and reflects creativity. Tracklist after the jump. Also if you're in New York, prepare yourself—they're playing a bananas lineup at Santos on November 21 with "purple"/dubstep producer Joker.
