[SSF002] Kid B / General Malice / Setwon / 16AJ - Ambush E.P. [Ltd. Edition 12" Vinyl & Digital Download - Out 14/09/15!!!]

A1 - Kid B - Ambush.

A2 - General Malice - Fi Dead.

B1 - Setwon - Say Warr.

B2 - 16AJ - Coppershot.

No soon er has the dust cleared from the release of the devastating 'Deadly Ammo E.P.', the Sound So Fierce Records camp present their next barrage of roughneck ragga junglism with the forthcoming 'Ambush E.P' to set all dancefloors alight.

Kid B returns for a second round and drops some intense, amen choppage, thundering bass and rudebwoy ragga chat on 'Ambush'. But if all that wasn't enough for you, then the sprinkling of exhilarating hardcore, rave stabs and mentasms to the mix should be enough to quench your jungle thirst. With 'Fi Dead' by General Malice, we are introduced to some sleek R&B grooves, before being pummeled by a battering ram, bass riddim, dancehall soundclash vocals and tearing, machine-gunfire breakbeats.

Setwon kicks off the B-Side in a roughneck style with 'Say Warr', which opens with

head-nodding, dub-reggae skanking licks accompanied by ragga chatter before unleashing a rude bass bomb with scattered Reese growls, and hectic breakage. 16AJ's ode to all the gangsta and rudeboy gun enthusiasts, 'Coppershot' rounds off the EP with a 28-gun amen and thumping bassline salute backed by large helpings of classic Shabba Ranks vox.

The 'Ambush E.P' is a guaranteed
take no prisoners on even the most roughneck of dancefloors, so if you are a true junglistic DJ or follower then this needs to be in your collection.

The 'Ambush E.P' 12" vinyl and digital download is available to order from the Sound So Fierce Records Bandcamp page on 14/09/15. The vinyl version of the 'Ambush E.P' will be available in both regular black and in exclusive colored vinyl editions. Also if you missed out on the previous 'Deadly Ammo E.P.' then there are limited quantities available also.

[SSF01] General Malice / 16AJ / Kid B / DJ K ‎– Deadly Ammo EP [AVAILABLE NOW IN DIGITAL, 12" VINYL AND LIMITED EDITION CAMOUFLAGE VINYL FORMATS]

A1 - General Malice - Badboys And Police.

A2 - 16AJ - The Pirates Anthem.

B1 - Kid B - Long Live Jah.

B2 - DJ K - Flyin (Default Rmx).

Brand new California based jungle label, Sounds So Fierce Records present one hell of a debut release in the form of the 'Deadly Ammo EP' featuring 4 tearing roughneck jungle killers from a worldwide collective of nuskool junglists championing the classic 1994 era of vintage ragga tinged drum & bass.

The EP opens with the absolutely rinsing amen-fest, 'Badboys And Police' by Genral Malice, chock full of rudebwoy chat, enveloping Reese bass and brain searing mentasms to get you hyped up to maximum effect. 16AJ (aka 16 Armed Jack) drops 'The Pirates Anthem' next bigging up the illegal radio station crews of jungle's glory days with a dub skank and machine-gun fire breaks.

On the flipside Kid B flings down his heavyweight, ruffneck bass and breaks roller, 'Long Live Jah' featuring enuff uplifting, dancehall vibes throughout, and to close things off Default remixes DJ K's 'Flyin' from way back in 2004 and gives the cheeky ragga vs. Lenny Kravitz original a slamming 2015 revamp.

Altogether, the 'Deadly Ammo EP' highlights the fact that the ragga jungle sound is very much still alive 22 years on from it's conception and deserves the support of all who call themselves Junglist!!!!

The 'Deadly Ammo EP' is available to purchase directly from the Sounds So Fierce Records Bandcamp page in 4-track Digital, Limited Edition Black and Camouflage vinyl formats to satisfy the needs off all discerning jungle heads. So don't delay on getting onto this one!!!
