Slit Jockey Records

Its been a minute but our Free singles series, alongside our sister label Seclusiasis, is back! And this time we are pledging to give away a free Seclus Jockey single every month from now on!!! Mr. Mitch made this sick 8bar remix in addition to his remix that appeared on the J-Sweet single last Fall…we’ve been holding it back and using it as a secret dub weapon in our sets, but now its time to let ya’ll have it! Hook us up with a Tweet or post on Facebook and this little gem is yours!

Oh yes this one is gonna smash you over the head on April 23rd! Check out the first look at the art and get ready for the track soon.

In early winter Slit Jockey unleashed J-Sweet’s grime instrumental monster ‘Can’t Stop My Grime’ Remix EP, which reached heavy acclaim in the clubs, blogs and streets.

Starkey’s Remix, chock full of thick n’ bubbly 8-bar beats, caught the ear of Manchester’s finest grime crew – Virus Syndicate – they wanted to lace a special vocal on the track! So here we have this MC version for the masses to get down.

Virus Syndicate MCs JSD, Goldfinger & Nika have a raw urban bass heavy sound that leans to many genres, with hard edged beats and lyrical intelligence the Virus are fast gaining tips to become the next major UK break through act. Virus Syndicate have released on Planet Mu, Contagious, Case Load, Stamp Beats and other labels.

Fresh off recent Ninja Tune releases and an impressive back catalog on Planet Mu, Civil Music, Seclusiasis, and more – Starkey is an unstoppable street bass force. Not to mention the legendary grime status of J-Sweet. This single is surefire, don’t sleep.

Sorry everyone we’ve been slightly quiet for a minute – theres lots of releases, podcasts and more popping over with our sister label, so you should definitely keep it locked over there as well! Hit www.seclusiasis.com and grab the latest from Aquadrop and Kastle and look out for the forthcoming drops from Siyoung, Street Bass Anthems 5 and DNAEBEATS to name a few.

That being said, Slit Jockey has a massive lineup of upcoming releases. First up we’ve got a special vocal version of Starkey’s Remix of J-Sweet “Can’t Stop My Grime” featuring Manchester’s finest – Virus Syndicate. That will be followed up by Mella Dee’s (of Mista Men) solo debut “Don’t Be Nesh.” Other upcoming Slit Jockey heat on deck from Sduk, El Carnicero, MIK, Doshy, DS1, Mr. Mitch and many more.

DS1′s “Red Rain” (from the Emotions, Colours and Spacefood EP) is a featured free download on XLR8R.

“This purple piece of bass from UK producer DS1 deploys a volley of synth licks over skittering hi-hats and plodding bass chords. “Red Rain” appears on DS1′s recent Emotions, Colours, and Spacefood EP, out now on Slit Jockey, which contains two other originals and four remixes, including a Starkey remix of this track. The artwork for the release is above, and the tracklisting can be found after the jump.”

Here’s what some fine folks are saying about this album:

“Serious ruffneck bizz-ness.” – Spooky

“This is HUGE!! I’m gonna smash this LP to bits, got mad vibes!” – Slick Shoota

“All City is a tuuuuuune! Awesome release, I will definitely be playing these tunes out.” – Kid Smpl

“Lovin’ YouNyt with Karizma!” – Proper Villains

“A year in the making…and it is worth the wait. Sduk ftw! So good.” +Verb

“This is a strong release! I can see grime, dubstep & bass DJs alike playing this.” – Neon Beats

“If Sduk’s ‘Anything Could Happen’ is the signs of things to come from Slit Jockey in 2012 then this will be the year of the Jockey!! Excellent debut!!” – rar Kelly

“VALID!!!! big tune!” – Knight Riderz

“Seclusiasis sub-label Slit Jockey arrive at their first album release with the debut LP of synthed-out Grime, Boogie and Crunk by Sduk. Boasting guest appearances from Starkey and Central Spillz (Shadz and Superisk) ‘Anything Could Happen’ is a controlled, multicolour explosion of trill synths, whipcrack 808s and ruder bass, crossing UK and US sensibilities with clear finesse. From the heat-seeking synths and switch-flicking flex of ‘Valid’ he cycles thru downbeat 808 and synth jams like ‘Fog’ to the Kingdom-meets-Royal T styles of ‘All City’ and the hyper-hybrid Grime epic ‘Fire’ feat. Central Spillz, taking in mutated R&B on ‘Landing Light’ and raved-up crunk madness on ‘Oashens’ with Starkey.” – Boomkat

Happy New Year everyone!!! We have a lot of great stuff planned for you this year. Sick music will be coming your way from DS1, M.I.K, Starkey, Dev79, El Carnicero, Doshy and to jump things off we have Sduk’s debut LP “Anything Could Happen” dropping on Monday January 9th! Look for more on that later this week!
