Artist: Pitch Black
Title:
One Ton Skank
Label:
Dubmission Records
Released:
8th November
The
second single to be released from their highly recommended recent
album ‘Third Light’ and features re-mixes from Tor.Ma in Dub and
Robot Riddims.
Now
as you can probably gather from the title of this track it was made
with heavy bass in mind and I was intrigued as to how these re-mixes
would fare. Tor.Ma immediately drops a heavy bass line and eases in
the aspects of the original piece. utilising subtle echoes and fx
that rise and fall as the journey progresses. For me he’s nailed it
I’d even go as far to say I prefer it.
Now
the 10K Skank Remix by South London’s Robot Riddims totally flips
the script. Initially they up the pace and take the piece into a ska
number, then surprisingly apply the brakes in the interludes with
low-frequency dub-step, and it works.
So
if you’re questioning is it worth buying the single and the album
in my humble opinion if your a fan of Pitch Blacks sound then without
a shadow of a doubt.
