"Amazing packaging and music from Bristol based DJ & producer Wedge. Coming with a fresh take on the dubstep sound with the debut release on his new label If Symptoms Persist... Having hosted his successful radio show on Sub M for four years, this first release represents the fruitful hookup that have come from the show. With the best of musical and vocal talent passing through, the show has become a watchword for keeping up on the developments in the Bristol sound. Shadz is one of the many talented vocalists to have guested on the show, and before long Wedge invited him into the studio to collaborate. The result is a perfect combination of bass weight beats and soulful songwriting. Shadz uses his experience singing with many different projects (Joker - 'Keep your eye on the ball,' Gemmy 'The Croft' Seezy -'Whatever the weather,' TC - 'Untitled,' Distorted Minds - 'Otherside') to great effect and comes up with an infectious lyric with a yearning, searching theme that suits Wedges deep bass pressure perfectly. 'Running Away' join the long line of great vocal tun to come out of Bristol, from Smith & Mighty, Tricky, & Portishead to Reprazent & Ben Westbeech. 'Running Away - Guido Remix': On the flip, rising talent Guido (one of the Purple Three along with Joker and Gemmy) turns in a remix that sums up the excitement surrounding these producers. R&B, grime, & dubstep are thrown into the mix. A rinsing b line mixes with Guido's trademark orchestration & musicality. Two prime examples of why people are looking to Bristol for a fresh take on the Dubstep / GrimeGoodnessKnowsWhat sound with DJs as diverse as Mary Anne Hobbs (Radio 1), Mr Jm (1Xtra), The Foreign Beggars (Dented Record ), Footloose (1Xtra), Starkey (Planet Mu), and N-Type (Rinse FM) supporting this release, things are looking great for this new label."
