Aquatic Lab Records
The Aquatic lab was established in 2006 by pioneers of the Australian dubstep and garage movement, DJ’s Farj & Paul Fraser. From the onset Farj & Paul set out to create a unique proposition- a quality record label managed from Australia but with a global vision. Currently focused on the broad and emerging sounds of dubstep, Aquatic lab as the name suggests is an experimental environment for tomorrows big name artists.
Aquatic Lab Sessions 1
Aquatic Lab Sessions 1 is a diverse package consisting of a selection of Aquatic lab’s vinyl catalogue combined with previously unreleased material.
The compilation is constructed to be a collection of flowing styles, capturing everything from deep atmospheric textures to some serious sub rocking big rig material. The CD album features debut Aquatic Lab release by Caspa & Rusko “King George”, “Colditz” by UK Garage legend Zed Bias, “Nah Go Dung Deh” by grime/dubstep producer Cotti and the “Darkness” & “Dark Passanger” by acclaimed producer Seven.
First up is a chilling future-scape progression titled “Ankoku Butoh” by Moving Ninja; an organic journey that is unique in every possible way. Further on, the album showcases a wealth of underground sounds from the purist hard stepper “Wasps by P-Vans, to the dub inspired rhythmic 2-step roller “Hollnadia” produced by Spherix. New York based Australian producer Flash brings forth a hollowed out 4/4 dread bass long player in the form of “Right Here” and Kila Mega Giga Tera, a live group consisting of Distro & Dub FX, deliver a kick stepping, hard skanking piece of kit entitled “Subsonic”. Vista comes with a sub shaking hybrid of moody minimalism in the shape of “Neptune”, and to round off the installment, bass scientist Twitch culminates the release with an origional piece of wobble bass that is brimming with character and primed for the dancefloor.
The CD album is complimented with a limited edition triple pack vinyl pack consisting of six previously unissued tracks.
