RAMP 014EP
"Eyes glazed, nose running with a mixture of blood and amphetamines, curled-up lip, Taz Buckfaster emerges from a sea of Iron Brew to crush all who stand before him like some Scottish parallel world Godzilla. This hooligan has been causing trouble on the streets of Glasgow for years, being pivotal in the city's grime scene, and counts emcee Durrty Goodz, and wonk hop pin-up boys Rustie and Hud Mo amongst his BFFs. Taz has put on his dubstep head, mashing a worrying combination of influences from Altern 8 to Guns 'n' Roses to Dr. Dre together in a thoroughly disturbing way. As a result, Mary Anne Hobbs has pretty much hammered everything this troublemaker has committed to HD, and current scene hypees Rustie and Starkey have been keeping Taz tunes in their secret weapons box and reducing audiences to a sticky mess across the planet. Now Taz has been let loose on the general public."

"In the late '70s, a young boy was surgically attached to an Atari 2600 using primitive medical procedures by the U.S. government, and then hidden in a massive conspiracy thing like what happens in films and stuff. Upon hearing his plight, we found that boy, who is now a man, and he has only gone and made some tunes!"

RAMP 019CD
"Picture this: Sweden, 2004, a desolate wasteland devoid of funk. A number of Swedish alcoholics joined forces and cheap synths to make a new brand of Scandinavian electronic funk, or SKWEEE. What is this new kind of music I hear you ask?! The original skweee label, Flogsta Danshall have been drafted in for a split release by the trend setting and current general all round top label Ramp Recordings, in the form of
Skweee Tooth
.
Skweee Tooth
drafts in all of skweee music's top producers from the label that started off the whole phenomenon to give you very lucky people a taste of the R n' B/electro/hip hop hybrid that is skweee. Flogsta Danshall was founded in a very small scale in 2004 as the first label releasing what later would be named skweee or Scandinavian-electronic-funk. Alongside Finnish Harmönia, they´ve lately built up a scene of their own based mostly of hardware liveshows and 7" vinyls. Flogsta Danshall won the first ever skweee sound clash at Sonar 2008. There are nowadays numerous Skweee acts doin' their thing. Among the producers, we find familiar people from bands such as Imatran Voima, Mr Velcro Fastener and Canadian Slow Hand Motëm. Finnish Skweee-label Harmönia released their first records 2006 and new labels like Norwegian Dødpop and French Disques Mazout has recently released their first vinyls. With US, UK, French and Spanish producers, the Skweee music is no longer only a local phenomena limited to Finland and Sweden."

RAMP 020EP
"Due to their unfeasible low attention spans, and bored of trawling the earth looking for new human producers, the friendly people at Ramp opened their cybernetic research department, to create new and exciting robotic producers. First, they made a rave robot, which predictably they grew bored of. They then went on to make a 2step robot, which again, they grew bored of. Upon realizing that cybernetics and robotics was not the way to feed the void boredom created, they disguarded their robots in the ditch behind the office. The two robots began talking, and quickly sparked up a friendship. One night after drowning their sorrows with many Peach Daiquiri's, the two robots fell into each other's arms and had hot drunken robot sex, and rave robot fell pregnant. Nine months later, there was a tap on the Ramp Recordings back door, followed by the patter of robot feet running away. Upon opening the door, they saw a basket containing a robot child and a note, which read: 'This is Hot City.'"

"Meet Slugabed. He is a 12-year-old boy from Bath, and he does not like to get out of bed. On occasion, he is known to sleepwalk, and urinate on things. When he does manage to drag himself out of bed, Sluga spends most of his days repeatedly banging his face against musical equipment until it's a bloody pulp. His parents have had enough. Ramp Recordings has decided to come to the rescue of young Sluga's parents, and adopt this problem child... OH SNAP!! We didn't mention 'wonky' once!!"

Catalog #:
RAMP 022CD
"Once upon a time, there was a band called The Cure, who had a front man named Robert Smith. Robert was an emotional being, who was always looking to test his boundaries and search out new experiences. After touring Germany in the early '80s with his band of eyeliner encrusted over-emotional Goth-men, Robert began a non-sexual but intensely intimate relationship with Florian Schneider, front man of electro forefathers, Kraftwerk. The unlikely couple decided to experiment with the then new science of gene splicing. After a few horrific failed attempts, they finally managed to successfully cross their DNA into the vessel of a baby boy. Months passed, and it became disturbingly apparent that the two men, who at the time were at the peak of their careers, had created a being of pure evil. They decided to enlist the help of the 4'2 purple sex-pest Prince to drown the young baby in a sea of colours and tears, and try as hard as they can to move on with their lives alone, ever trying to forget the horrific experiences the child had graced upon their lives. For many years, the baby's soul circled the earth, crying pixels and watching women get undressed in locker rooms and stuff, for he is just a soul, and invisible to the human eye, and can get away with that kind of thing. The child found out there was a way to come back from the dead in some kind of
Hellraiser
type puzzle themed ritual, and hark, the boy (who was now a man) did indeed rise from the dead, and yes, he did once again walk the earth with the sole intent of wrong-doing. That boy is Zomby, and this is his new CD."

Catalog #:
RAMP 025EP
"FaltyDL returns to Ramp after the painfully deep
To London
, and his acclaimed
Love Is A Liability
album on some other label earlier this year, with a new 12" of sleazy 2step vibes. 'Party' gets things moving with DL's most organic production to date, resonating in your brain like the jaded memory of an uncomfortable lap dance from an impromptu trip to the future. Flip the wax for the warm fuzzy minimal garage vibes of 'Alpafun,' a tune that Mr. Lustman hates so much, he never wanted it to see the light of day. Just to spite the cocky New Yorker, we are putting it out."

Price:

Catalog #:
RAMP 027EP
"Meet Desto. We found him wandering the streets of Helsinki, eating canned tuna and drinking the water from a tin of hot dogs, desperately clutching armfuls of sticky future garage. Starting off in spacey 2-step rhythms, falling over bassline, and breaking down into a euphoric 8-bit cascade, the epic 'Disappearing Reappearing Ink' finally reaches wax after being in the boxes of pretty much everybody all year. On the flip, 'Broken Memory' was given its first exclusive airing by Oneman on Radio 1 to much acclaim, and takes more of a straight up approach, and retains all of the fluid C64 chip-tune beauty. DJ support from Rob Da Bank, Oneman, Brackles, Sinden, Floating Points, Clouds, and Mary Anne Hobbs."

Catalog #:
RAMP 032CD
"Although you may not have yet heard his name, P.U.D.G.E. has been bubbling up in U.S. beat scene for many years. At age 9, his father gave him a Bass, a Juno synth, a DX drum machine and a Tascam 4 track. He encouraged the boy to start making his own music; P.U.D.G.E. got the bug. By the time young P.U.D.G.E. (thus called because at school he was always extra medium, or less than chubby) hit 13, he had discovered turntableism, and started DJing at house parties around NYC. By his late teens, he had emerged as a promising emcee, standing next to many of the well-known emcees from the Lyricist Lounge; including Mos Def & El P. Still producing, P.U.D.G.E.'s music was starting to gain attention, and his first beat was released on the Vinyl Junkies debut EP. After hearing about the emerging beat scene in L.A., he moved there in 2004, and started getting a few production credits under his belt, including cuts for Rawkus Records and Stacey Epps. After circulating some of his instrumental beat tapes, interest for P.U.D.G.E. started to gain momentum. P.U.D.G.E. headed up All Cty's L.A. series, on a split 10" with Dibiase, preceeding releases from Ras G, Samiyam & Matthewdavid."

Format:
12"
Price:
$13.00
Catalog #:
RAMP 034EP
"Becoming Real is a young producer residing in a forgotten suburbia, busy channeling his very own post-apocalyptic vision of London. A spectre-like entity flitting between a range of electronic frequencies, his self-termed 'Ghost-Step' sound is as much influenced by a conceptual future dystopia as by luminaries Zomby &Mount Eerie. Re-imagining the iciest of grime synths through a warped K Records aesthetic, Becoming Real has forged a frozen universe that still retains an unequivocally human feel. Charged with future-dread, this is music for seas drowned in oil, tar-coated forest landscapes, and a prophesized world of underwater clubs and haunted dancefloors. After a sold-out debut white label release last year, Becoming Real emerges with the release of 'Fast Motion'/'Jen's Clock', backed with a Scratcha DVA remix of 'Fast Motion'."
