Artist:	CARDOPUSHER
Title:	Milk Thistle
Label:	LODUBS
Format:	12"
Price:	$7.50
Catalog #:	LODUBS 8010EP

"Lodubs is pleased to present a three-track 12" from Venezuela's Cardopusher, an artist well known and well-regarded within many subgenres of electronic bass music, and our second release documenting the dubstep sound of South America. As a geographical companion piece to the Pacheko 12", and directly tied in content to our CD Analog Clash, 'Milk Thistle' was first unveiled on the aforementioned compact disc, which, separate from the enthusiasm generated by the album as a whole, sparked a lot of interest in the track and the artist, in addition to curiosity as to when the tune would be cut and pressed. On equal footing with regards to stylistic ingenuity and power are 'Double Dragon' and 'Jerk Pork,' the first of which is remarkably catchy, with its high-pitched, arpeggiated melody and punchy, distinct bass line, and the latter of which is a truly original and energizing wobbler. Once again, Lodubs is leading the charge in the ascension of a new-to-the-sound artist, as quite soon Cardopusher will also have releases on Hyperdub (remixed by Quatra 330) and a host of other prominent labels."

Title:	Bad Face/Lonesome Town
Label:	OFF ROAD (UK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	OFFROAD 004EP

"To kick things off properly in 2009, they've signed up a killer plate from Venezuelan dancefloor assassin Cardopusher -- who has been ripping up clubs and airwaves worldwide with releases on Lodubs, Redvolume and Terminal Dusk. 'Bad Face' on the A side is a techy ripper, where the soothing pads and alien chit-chat are just the calm before the storm -- a thundering drop of non-stop subs mixed with ruff klaxon synths that switch and mutate before giving way to a blissed-out midsection peppered with cheeky drumwork and lush sonic textures. 'Lonesome Town' takes things even dirtier, with squirming electro synthlines filtered hard over skipping beats, as Cardo throws vintage stabs and a seriously catchy bleep riff into the mix."
