Artist:	OBEAH/WOLF MAN
Title:	Copenhagen Massive/Eye of the Demon
Label:	KRAKEN RECORDINGS (DENMARK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	KRKN 001EP

"The first release of the new Danish dubstep label, Kraken Recordings, is definitely certain to make Denmark known for more than just bacon, street riots, and the Vikings of old. This features tunes from two of the most promising producers in Copenhagen: Obeah's 'Copenhagen Massive' and Wolf Man's 'Eye of the Demon.' What started as tunes shared with other up-and-coming producers via the influential dubstepforum.com, has since been recognized as groundbreaking productions by the established international DJs. A first release from Kraken Recordings might turn into tomorrow's dubstep classic. Despite this being the debut release of both Obeah and Wolf Man, both producers have (under different monikers) released several records since the mid-'90s -- as well as being part of the award-winning Danish crew, OHOI! Obeah -- 'Copenhagen Massive': The absolute anthem of the Danish dubsteppers! Obeah (aka DJ and producer 2000F) has created a catchy but heavy, half-steppin' floor-filler, inspired by dub reggae and jungle. Wolf Man - 'Eye of the Demon': Featuring bass frequencies from the depths of a 1000 fathoms, Wolf Man (aka DJ and producer JSL) has created a dubstep beast of a magnitude that will send the crowd rattling to the floor. 'Eye of the Demon' is all about dark, evil atmospheres, bone-shattering drums, and eerie vocal samples smothered with dub effects."

Artist:	RUF/SCANDALOUS UNLTD.
Title:	Raw Love/The Solution
Label:	KRAKEN RECORDINGS (DENMARK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	KRKN 002EP

"The second imprint of Kraken Recordings, the new Danish dubstep label, features tunes from two of the most promising dubstep producers of the moment: Copenhagen-based RUF (aka JSL aka Wolf Man) and London-based Scandalous Unltd. (of the True Tiger crew). The A-side features the mighty 'Raw Love,' one of the most talked-about and hyped tunes on the prominent dubstepforum.com. The B-side holds a close-kept secret track from the well-known producer team behind the successful True Tiger Recordings: 'The Solution,' a certain dancefloor smasher with an amazing bass line that will destroy every sound system and send the crowd into a pull-up frenzy!"

Artist:	EVEN/OBEAH
Title:	Order/Noise For OHOI!
Label:	KRAKEN RECORDINGS (DENMARK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	KRKN 003EP

"KRKN003 features two distinct tunes from producers Even and Obeah recorded and mixed in the heart of the bass-heavy Moremax Studio, Copenhagen and mastered at Transition Studios, London. A sure-shot combination! Even - 'Order' is the very first release of Even, who since the very beginning of the Dubstep scene has been well-known for his outstanding music productions. His style is unique featuring a mellow soundscape, catchy melodies and a sub-driven bass that will turn you inside out! This is a seriously deep and heavy 4x4 tune for those early morning ravers. Obeah - 'Noise For OHOI!': This is the second release of Obeah, one of the many monikers of Kraken Recordings' very own 2000F. We predict the reggae influenced 'Noise For OHOI!' will do as much damage on the dance floors around the world as 'Copenhagen Massive' did (featured on KRKN001)."

Artist:	RUF/OBEAH
Title:	Rudebwoy Riddim V.I.P./Kiss V.I.P.
Label:	KRAKEN RECORDINGS (DENMARK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	KRKN 006EP

"The successful Danish dubstep label Kraken Recordings is back with yet another sub bass haunted release, proving that Scandinavian dubstep artists are well worth keeping an eye out for. KRKN006 features two distinct tunes from producers RUF and Obeah, recorded and mixed in the heart of the bass-heavy Moremax Studio, Copenhagen and mastered at Transition Studios, London. A sure-shot combination! RUF -- 'Rudebwoy Riddim VIP': The massive VIP version of the 'Rudebwoy Riddim VIP' by Danish dubstep producer RUF (aka JSL). Originally released on Red Volume Records, the 'Rudebwoy Riddim' has been rinsed around the globe, but this new VIP version adds a frantic Soca-inspired carnival groove on top of one of the most twisted and heavy bass lines courtesy of RUF. Dance floor mayhem is certain when this tune is rinsed! Obeah -- 'Kiss VIP': Supported heavily by BBC's Mary Anne Hobbs, the VIP version of the Kiss tune is one of the more percussive, intense and techno-inspired cuts to have come out of the Copenhagen-based studio of Obeah (aka 2000F). With a musical background as, amongst others, a percussionist, Obeah lays down a thick layer of Afro-Caribbean rhythms, as well as drawing upon inspirations from early jungle (hence the bass line) and not forgetting the techno sounds of the TB-303 acid machine."

Artist:	SIMIEN & OBEAH
Title:	What Are We Doing?
Label:	KRAKEN RECORDINGS (DENMARK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	KRKN 007EP

"Kraken Recordings strike again with their seventh release. Complete with the usual trademark slick packaging and artwork, this time we see Obeah (aka 2000F) team up with Simien and featuring the vocal talents of Ilawy. 'Waiting' is the track and its received a lot of airplay from the likes of N-Type etc., on Rinse FM/Sub FM. It comes with a real soft reggae/dancehall vibe, perhaps this is a new approach by Obeah who has always focused on the deeper side of the 'step."

Artist:	EAGGER & STUNN GUNN/2000F
Title:	Morder Dem (JSL Remix)/Summer Rain
Label:	KRAKEN RECORDINGS (DENMARK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	KRKN 008EP

"The ever-expanding Kraken Records return to the dancehall with two high grade roots rockers. First up, Eagger & Stunn Gunn deliver the rootical goodness with the rusty throated, low end fire-starter, 'Morder Dem.' On the flip, 2000F delivers a hefty follower to his recent excursion on Hyperdub. 'Summer Rain' takes proceedings into deeper territory with techy pads, glitchy vibes and neck snapping drums."

Artist:	TURBOWEEKEND/JSL
Title:	Something Or Nothing/Raw Love 2009
Label:	KRAKEN RECORDINGS (DENMARK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	KRKN 009EP

"The eagerly awaited remix of Turboweekend's 'Something Or Nothing' has been receiving massive support from Skream & Joker. Electro funk, soothing pop vocals, all blended together with half step rhythms and 2000F's laid-back, soulful approach make this a surefire winner for the ladies this summer. Turn over to check JSL's 2009 mix of 'Raw Love,' the original first appeared on Kraken exactly 2 years ago under JSl's alias RUF. The unmistakable Justin Timberlake intro builds us up and up into an almighty wallop of brutal bass, like a breeze-block in the head."

Artist:	JAYBIRD/JSL
Title:	Work Dat Box/Fight Dub
Label:	KRAKEN RECORDINGS (DENMARK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	KRKN 010EP

"Kraken are rolling again and it's good to have the Denmark based don's back! Very little is known about A-side artist and LA resident Jaybird, but I'm sure plenty of people will be on the hunt for info after this little number drops. Absolutely relentless, crushing dubstep music, a refreshingly nasty little number reminiscent in atmosphere to one of Kraken's earliest releases, 'Eye Of The Demon' by Wolfman (JSL), this tune is currently tearing up clubs worldwide, with support from 2000F and notably featuring on Hatcha & Crazy D's Kiss FM radio show, you're gunna love this one! Legendary Kraken artist JSL pops up on the flip with a brand new beat, kept relatively under wraps this one comes out of nowhere and smacks is straight round the chops like Kimbo Slice! Act quickly on this one, it won't last."
