"No doubt the majority of you will have already heard of Excision, one of the leading lights of the North American dubstep scene. His studio mixes have received over 60,000 downloads from one file sharing site alone, while his Rottun Recordings label regularly tops the sales charts, stacking up thousands of sales for each release on Beatport alone! Recently his official remix of Pendulum's 'Showdown' brought the sound of filthy dubstep to the masses and has clocked up over 120,000 plays on the band's Myspace page. Meanwhile DJs such as BBC 1Xtra's Mistajam have been all over his signature sound. With so much attention from clubland and the media alike, Excision thought it was time to start a new imprint, geared to release the very biggest of the tracks in his record box. Teaming up with Infectious PR who will be managing and promoting the label on his behalf, Excision is ready to kick off EX7 (pronounced Ex-Seven, for those not in the know) with a pair of downright bangers. 'Yin Yang' featuring DZ is straight up LFO-based dubstep at it's finest. Featuring an ambient intro that lulls you into a false sense of security before smacking you round the face with a bassline so big it could be seen from space (that's a ridiculous thing to say, don't think we don't know how ludicrous our own press releases sound). This track is also rumoured to appear on Snoop Dogg's forthcoming Dubstep LA mixtape, so watch out for some serious commercial crossover business. Flip over and 'Obvious' takes a surprisingly less obvious approach than you might think. Drawing out electro influences and blending them expertly with Excision's unique hard-hitting style 'Obvious' is packed with energy for the dance floor but with plenty to keep you interested at home. Anyone who likes to mix up electro with dubstep should be slipping this into their sets."

Artist:	EXCISION & DATSIK
Title:	Swagga/Invaders
Label:	EX7
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	EX7 002EP

"Vinyl copies of EX7001, Excision - Yin Yang, sold out in a matter of weeks, while the digital release has been sitting pretty at the top of the Beatport dubstep chart ever since it was dropped. Now, following on from their immense first 12", EX7 is back with an even more impressive pair of dance floor killers. EX7002 has been getting plenty of attention from all comers, with dubstep, breaks and even drum & bass DJs all clamouring to get their hands on it. The A side, 'Swagga,' was a feature in Excision's DJ sets on his recent UK tour as sweaty crowds of teenagers rushed the decks shouting 'Play Swagga!' in anticipation of its filthy bassline combinations (we kid you not, we feared for our lives). Not only that, but 'Swagga' is the only non-Rusko track that Rusko's been battering on all his recent radio mixes; for proof just check out his recent Breezeblock mix for BBC Radio 1. Teaming up with fellow Canadian, Datsik, once again on the flip, Excision creates another mechanoid-influenced stomper that hails the beginning of Armageddon. Monster bass and super-hard beats are what 'Invaders' is all about, another piece of heavy artillery for Excision & Datsik's sonic armoury."

Artist:	EXCISION/EXCISION & NOIZ
Title:	Subsonic/Force
Label:	EX7
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	EX7 003EP

"Ever wondered what the apocalyptic soundtrack to invading robots ready to destroy the world would sound like? Well, you're about to find out as Excision drops the latest 12" on his own EX7 label. Following the immense dancefloor killer 'Swagga,' supported heavily by Rusko and Mistajam, Excision steps up on the A side of EX7003 to deliver 'Subsonic,' an incredible blend of super-tough beats and grinding bass. Opening with prophecies of robotic doom before stamping down its mark of totalitarian authority, this one destroys the dance each and every time. Flip over and Excision teams up with Noiz to create 'Force,' a shifting tumultuous slab of whirling and interchanging basslines that create a wall of sonics just powerful enough to crack a rib or two. Haunting FX and skipping percussive rhythms pave the way for utter destruction."

Artist:	DATSIK
Title:	Mechano/Brock Out
Label:	EX7
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	EX7 004EP

"Only in the dubstep scene a short time, 21 year old Datsik (Troy B.) has wasted no time by making his presence be known internationally, introducing his own unique style of industrial sounding futuristic beats and heavy dance floor stomping rhythms. He has also earned the attention of some of the most notable and influential acts in the scene to date such as Bassnectar, Skream, Rusko, & DJ Craze, to name a few. With the Rottun Recordings label behind him, he has been hard at work, working on many tunes, collaborations, and remixes for some of the biggest names in the world. 'Mechano': This tune is pure insanity, every aspect of it blows my mind. It's the Gnar Gnar track! On the flip 'Brock Out': TWO of the filthiest dubstep producers in the business combining their MUCKY sounds to make this."
