Ds2b Records

Dubstomp 2 Bass is an extremely prolific label that seemingly has a release out every other day, which makes it more impressive that all of them seem to hit the nail on the head. That nail is on the shape of messed-up (in a good way) jump-up, something Maurizzle and Parasite clearly excel at making. 'Hoot' doesn't have the tightest sound design in the world but I can't imagine this pair really cares all that much, because that's not what matters: instead, they've made a rough and heavy dancefloor tune that'll go down well anywhere. 'Fools' opens up with some menacing, suspenseful synths on the introduction which quickly flip into a wave of distortion and dirt, wrapping themselves around the drums in an injection of funk. Sick EP.
