Premiere: Dread MC Calls On DJ Q & Gentlemens Club For Bassline Banger “Tun
Written by SOURCE on August 11, 2022
For years, Bristol-based Dread MC has been one of the most respected MCs and hosts in dance music, whether it’s D&B, house music, funky, bassline, garage… he’s always ready to hold down mic duties and keep things nice and lively. This year, however, he’s getting some much-deserved limelight with the release of his own album, Pressure Drop, via LazCru’s revered CruCast outlet.
The album drops next Friday, August 19, but ahead of that they’re lifting the lid on a track produced by DJ Q and garage, dubstep and bassline trio Gentlemens Club—aka Coffi, Soloman, and 50 Carrot—simply titled “Tune”. Sticking squarely with the bassline end of all four producers’ repertoires, it’s as big and bouncy as you’d hope for.
As for the rest of the 14-track album, it’s pretty intense stuff. Bass is the driving force and there’s plenty of it, taking bassline, house music and the occasional bit of dubstep and pushing them to their noisiest, raviest extremes.
While we wait on the rest of the album, get a primer with “Tune” below.
