Description

For the second instalment of the Curio Cabinet gourmet-dub series, we bring you two fat slices of steppers delight, straight from the southern city of Toulouse.

Both are made by Stefan Dubs under the guiding light of his live project, Sn Du Maquis. This project has deep roots in the free rave, micro-festival, and dub & sound system culture of his country. Its also the name of his own label, home to his dub-infested productions; ranging from slo-mo jungle to droney steppers and blown-out trip-hop on a slightly medieval tip.

Staying true to classic sound system tradition, each side pairs the original cut with its own version.

First there is Tolosan Dub, a trancey bass meditation colossus with deep synth work moving around in the trees. Some early nineties UK digidub vibes are surely mashing up the dance here. The version workout slows things down a bit, taking you even deeper into the riddim… strictly warrior style !
