"Only octopus' can hear it that low"

After the cancellation of DUB 4 LIFE in Vauxhall on Saturday I was in great need of a portion of sub bass. So I decided last night to nocturnally venture into the heart of Croydon with Chris and Jason for Croydub hosted by Sgt Pokes at The Black Sheep Bar.

With a colossal line up of Surge, Deapoh, Cluekid, Chef and Oneman I was under the impression that things couldn’t possibly get better. But when Skream stepped up for a B2B set with Chef; sound, sweat and skank levels in the building definitely raised.

Deapoh’s exquisite mixing; Cluekid’s dubplate selection and Skream and Chef’s alliance definitely made Croydub in my eyes a success. Unfortunately I didn’t manage to see Oneman’s set but no doubt he followed suit.

Out to everyone else that reached down last night; Benga, Kutz, N-Type, Loefah and a whole lot more that I couldn’t quite put names with faces!

I managed to grab a couple of mediocre photos from the proceedings. However nothing quite as impressive as the 500 + we are used to each week from Brum’s top guy; Witts!



-The local clown wasn't able to attend so Chris did instead



- Jason and Beni



- B2B confrontations - Never that!



- Chefal submerged in the mix



- He was actually having a GREAT time

The next Croydub is coming up on December 21st with a line up like you have never seen in your entire life. A definite reach for those in the surrounding counties!

To conclude you may enjoy this Digital Mystikz Essential Mix for Radio 1 from February 2006. – which is available to download HERE
