Artist: JOKER/TRG
Title: Snake Eater/Move Dis
Label: SOUL MOTIVE (UK)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: SMR 001EP
"New label Soul Motive with a stunning debut. Based in Bristol, UK, Soul Motive is dedicated to bringing you quality, bass-driven music from dancefloor bangers to deep leftfield styles, from breaks to 4/4 and everything in between. Think Planet Mu meets Mo Wax. Think music to get your skank on. SMR001EP is a double A-side featuring two of dubstep and grime's heaviest, most talked-about artists. Coming as a fully art-worked single release on vinyl, this is the start of something. Joker -- 'Snake Eater' -- coming with his first official release since his critically-acclaimed EP on Earwax, Joker's next release has been hotly-anticipated from grime and dubstep fans alike. Presenting a different style to his previous offerings, 'Snake Eater' is a crunk banger with a grime twist, a soul-grabbing vocal hook and a seriously healthy dose of bass. Instant reload! TRG -- 'Move Dis' -- Romanian TRG is very much man of the moment and is playing an influential part in helping dubstep remember its UK garage roots. With a plethora of releases on a wide range of labels, he is shaping the sound of now. 'Move Dis' is a classic swinging steppa with a nasty, rolling bass line underpinning the subtle percussive groove. Guaranteed to make ya shake."


Artist: FORSAKEN (FEAT. JOKER & BEN BLACKMORE/MR. JO)
Title: Last Saloon Swagger/Into The Sunset
Label: SOUL MOTIVE (UK)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: SMR 002EP
"Soul Motive returns after its critically acclaimed debut with some Wild West wonkiness. Another double A-side, this time showcasing the sounds of Bristol based Forsaken and friends. Accompanied by musical talents such as grime genius Joker, Bristol Guitarist Ben Blackmore and Belgian harmonica player Mr. Jo, a unique musical experience is guaranteed. Forsaken feat. Joker & Ben Blackmore - 'Last Saloon Swagger.' Championed by Martin Blackdown as 'one of the most head-turning productions in dubstep,' 'Last Saloon Swagger' gives drunken rowdiness a new edge with honky tonk pianos, western guitars and staggered beats, along with one of Forsaken's trademark chest-rattling bass lines. One of the most original dubstep productions of 2008. Forsaken feat. Mr. Jo - 'Into The Sunset.' Continuing the strutting Western narrative of 'Last Saloon Swagger.' Take a textured, subtly layered journey through a musical landscape via ethereal harmonica, intricate percussion, melodic campfire guitars, rolling beats and earth shaking sub lines. Crossing the open plains of Kansas, with horses and harmonicas, heading off 'Into The Sunset.'


Artist: GEIOM/HEADHUNTER & INVISIBLE
Title: Luna/Lovedup
Label: SOUL MOTIVE (UK)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: SMR 006EP
Soul Motive flex out on a funkier house tip with mutations from Headhunter & Invisible and Geiom. It's probably the first time we've heard Headhunter on an explicitly housed vibe with "Lovedup," albeit at a dubstep tempo. Geiom lays out a merry fusion of melodica, Latin horns and smooth, rolling house with the requisite amount of sub to keep bassheads happy.


Artist: BASHMORE, JULIO
Title: Batak Groove/Around
Label: SOUL MOTIVE (UK)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: SMR 007EP
Soul Motive presents some bespoke bruk beats and Afro-housing with tropical flexes guaranteed. Julio Bashmore's "Batak Groove" resolves around a flowing broken beat, tooled out of an Indonesian-feeling motif, inventively colliding with mighty sub-bass propulsion to killer effect. "Around" sets up stall in prime Afro-house territory, deftly realigned with fresh 2010 vibes. Impressive 12" from the on-point Soul Motive crew -- highly recommended.
