WBBL has been tirelessly perfecting a whole bunch of new and original tunes in his studio for a while now and the first of those new tracks have surfaced on his 3 track EP ‘Get Back‘. The hard work has clearly paid off and the bass wobble we come to expect from him is evident throughout the EP.

The title track of the EP is where we begin and things kick off in spectacular style with an extremely cool and bassy slice of Glitch Hop. Up next is ‘Toe Tapper‘ which will have you doing more than that, that’s for sure! Fuller, fatter drums that have a real kick with Glitchy tweaks and of course, plenty of bass. ‘Carry On‘ is the last tune and what a dose of happiness this House/Disco groover will inject into your lives! You can always rely on WBBL to deliver the goods and we’re very much looking forward to listening to the rest of the music he’s been working on in the future.

Here we go once again with another new name to grace the LSM ward. Carlos Rodriguez a.k.a, Bag-O-Beetz, was born in Spain, grew up in Venezuela and now finds himself living in Canada. Throughout his journey he has soaked up many musical influences which include Latin, Reggae, Calypso, Salsa, Soca, Funk, House, Breaks and D n B, which really shines through in the music he makes and selects when DJing.

It’s Reggae where his focus lies with his superb free 5 track EP ‘For The Love Of Dub‘ which was released to celebrate passing the milestone of passing 2,000 followers on Soundcloud. It opens up with ‘Lets Get Ill‘ which offers plenty for the jump up D n B fan. Up next is the ‘Numa Crew vs Hawkeye‘ and the Jungle vibes are strong in this one, as is the soul shaking bassline which needs to be heard! The last 3 tracks ‘Bun Them‘, ‘Inna Mess‘ and ‘Reggae Vigilante‘ are all of the midtempo variety, so expect fierce bass and lashings of Reggae flavourings spread across all of them. It’s an EP not to be missed!
