Cannot Be Straightened and Clapton Deep = incredible dubs

Never really hear of him playing out much. Anyone seen him live?
Also, I don't hear his tunes get dropped anywhere near enough for my liking, out at nights.
Cannot Be Straightened and Opera would get any crowd amovin' and ashakin' like their wibbly wobbly little lives depended on it.

Loving the album, Bass Clef has definitely got a unique sound and is doing his thing

He played at Futureproof in Nottingham a few months back and absolutely destroyed it by all reports...live trombone, the works.

Really feeling the album. 'Basss & Drumm make my Heart Sing' and 'Opera' are both masssive tracks.

Innit.
I think that what I like most about the album is that it has proper club banger style tunes mixed in with more experimental/ambient and melodic stuff. Good blend for a dubstep album.

This was the first dubstep album I heard. It completely blows me away.

Trombone and all sorts of craziness live too I heard. Really wanna see it. The man has definite flavor.

Trombone/whistle/ cowbell/theremin. I’m looking at music a bit differently after seeing Mr Clef in flow

Hell yes. This album is great. It has some great dubstep bangers but it goes beyond the genre and holds up to many other electronic releases.

best lp on the scene for me by far. pushing music forward.
album touches on so many moods and styles and makes them all its bitch, no filler.
cannot be straightened, the banger of bangers, the 2 step drop towards the end is sick siCK SICK. thank you for starting fires is a truly beeyooty of a blissful track.
nuff love to the clefster.

Absolute Badman.

He supported Murcof in London this month. Now THAT would've been a gig.

Slept on this one, why is it not getting the hype it deserves?
