We install doubt in you and your yes-men
And if the #game have veins, we'll insert the needle, upheaval the ground
'Cause the #adrenaline we blend with the sound
Is our thing, relieving the kings of all crowns 
What you talking 'bout? Space or out your mind?
But can you rock it like rocket, fool?
That's a close encounter of what kind?

These songs deserve to be heard world wide Recorded at Kleiderschrank Studios Kansanga, Nyege Nyege Studios Bbunga, East African Records Kabalagala, Statement Studios Makindye, Arnest Beats Makindye and Masters Studios Ntinda / Kampala Uganda in 2017-2019 He’s like, “Yo, we’re going to Paris, if you guys want to come out, you should come out.” We stayed there with B and Jay for two and a half or three weeks in Paris.Yes friends + family: finally this is my new mix "Gaman Juice" - I've spent about 1year recording dubplate specials n creating exclusive relicks of some of Uganda's best, biggest, or most exciting underground dancehall and hip hop songs.

From that night, Jay kept saying, “Stay close.” Young Guru, God bless the man, one of the realest guys ever, made sure he kept me and Cool in the loop. When it was done, she played it three or four times, and she’s like, I love this, this is great. There was one record that Cool kept saying, “Yo, Dre, don’t leave there without playing him ‘Salud!’” So after he played a couple Beyoncé duet records, I was like, “Yo, can I play you one more?” It was just the beat, but he was like, “What the fuck? You wait until the end of the night to play this shit? You crazy?” I was like, “I got a hook idea.” He’s like, “Lay that shit.” As I was laying it, Beyoncé walks into the studio. Towards the end, he started playing me records that him and Beyoncé cut. He invites us over, and in a 10 or 11 hour span, we cut around five or six records. Keep feeding me.” After a couple records, we gave him one song that he loved so much he was like, “You in L.A.? Come over.” We’re in Miami right now, but we’re gonna be in LA immediately I’m booking flights. We emailed it to him, and I reminded him about that time he told me, “Yo, before we send this to anyone else, I’m gonna take your advice and hand deliver it to you first.” He emailed right back after he heard it, “This shit’s crazy. Cratesishigh: So probably eight, nine weeks ago, Cool and I started sending him ideas.

After being inspired by the rich history of labels like Moving Shadow, V Recordings, Good Looking, Full Cycle, XL, Formation, Dread, amongst many others, S.P.Y proudly presents the jungle sounds of past, present and future in his ‘Dubplate Style’ LP.Since the release of his last long-player, S.P.Y has been digging through the crates – rediscovering his love for all things jungle, hardcore and breakbeat. He began his ‘Dubplate Style‘ journey in 2018, paying homage to original jungle culture and kitting out two studios with vintage synths and sequencers to recreate that authentic jungle feel. Across fifteen heavyweight tracks he’s put a fresh twist on the music that originally brought him into the world of drum & bass. Kicking things straight into gear is the stripped back stealthy banger ‘After The Rain’ featuring the deep, grizzly tones of legendary MC GQ. Continuing the bassweight reign is the reggae-tipped ‘Runaway Dub’, plus ‘Whole In The Speaker’ that’s the ultimate throwback and new-school hybrid with a unique hardcore edge that calls back to raves from across the eras. S.P.Y mixes up the tempos with the nostalgic ‘See Your Face Again‘, complete with uplifting vocals and rave piano. This future summer classic has all the right components to soundtrack the sunshine. Expect all speeds and styles, available as a stunning limited edition ‘Dubplate Style’ Box Set, with 7×10″ pearl white vinyl sealed away into premium quality foil blocked casing, with a superb luxury jet black finish. Also available via CD and digital / streaming formats from all major platforms. #spydnb #harddnb #dnbnight #dnbunitedrecords #dnbworldwide #dnbhi #dnbstrong #dnbmix #Ukdnb #dnbhead #dnb_bank #dnbislife #dnbforever #dnbfam #ilovdnb #dnbnight #pertdnb https://www.instagram.com/p/BuMbTAGlr3d/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hgmhv2oflav3

On the record

Chris Arch has been running his popular Sydenham spot Sugahill for 11 years. He tells how he turned the cafe into a destination for coffee lovers and crate-diggers alike

WORDS BY EMMA FINAMORE; PHOTO BY LIMA CHARLIE

It’s not often you see local cafes listed on Resident Advisor – the online home of electronic music, artists and events – but Sugahill is not your average caff.

Just a five-minute walk from Sydenham railway station, the independent coffee shop on Kirkdale is a fully licensed venue selling craft beer, spirits and wine alongside hot drinks, juices and small plates of vegetarian and vegan food – as well as tempting homemade cakes. But it’s also a record store and venue, serving up regular events for music fans and selling everything from soul and reggae to hip-hop.

It’s the first Sunday of the month, which at Sugahill means it’s their monthly record fair: the Sunday Social. The small, bright space – with colourful racks of records running along one side and a coffee counter (complete with DJ decks) at the back – is full of friendly customers, some catching up over warm mugs of tea and coffee, others crate-digging for new vinyl, some even hopping on and off the decks to spin a few tunes.

Sugahill owner Chris Arch is at the centre of this buzz of activity, playing records and conversing with customers, persuading them to play a few records while he sits down to chat.

The music side of the business might be unusual when it comes to most cafes, but it makes complete sense when you speak to Chris: he’s been playing records to crowds of music lovers and frequenting record stores since he was just a teenager in school. He’s especially drawn to jazz, funk and reggae music, which is reflected in Sugahill’s events and record selection.

“I’ve been DJing since the 80s,” he explains, “and more recently at Wax On Wav Off at the Four Quarters in Peckham, Diggers Dozen at Ace Hotel in Shoreditch [a night where DJs bring 12 records each, are only allowed two turntables’ play, and mustn’t use bootleg records – always original vinyl] and the Great Exhibition in East Dulwich, where I have a monthly spot. Plus I always play a few records at our events.”

This love of music explains the fact that there’s a double-page spread from a recent edition of The Lewisham Ledger pinned up on the wall of the cafe: it’s a history of the borough’s deep sound system and reggae roots, which Sugahill also likes to celebrate.

Chris says the article was especially relevant to his cafe not only because of the genre, but because it talks about Freddie Cloudburst, who once ran a soul music sound system (where roots reggae legend Jah Shaka famously started his career) in the borough and whose son – Tiny T, AKA Mighty Cloudburst – has actually played at Sugahill.

Other south London reggae DJs have taken to the decks here too, including Dubplate Pearl – who has spun records for high-profile places like Somerset House and Boiler Room, and has a regular show on Peckham’s Balamii radio station.

There’s also Toby Broom (AKA Mr Swing Easy), who’s another Balamii regular and author of Englishman, a book exploring the world of the British reggae DJ. The cafe has even been the location for video interviews with people like soul singer and songwriter Eshe Escoffery.

Sugahill wasn’t always such a hub of musical activity though. Chris and his wife Yasemin took the business on from its previous owner in 2007, and set about making big changes – literally.

Chris says to create the space they wanted, he and Yasemin had to alter the layout of the building, moving the entire kitchen to the back of the cafe and even lowering the floor.

As the business changed, with Chris introducing the music side, so did the neighbourhood around it: Sydenham was named on the Evening Standard’s “where to buy” list in 2018.

Chris is positive about some of the changes, and welcomes new life being breathed into the locale. In fact, he sees it as a sort of return to the Sydenham he knew in his youth.

“It was quite a lively place in the 1980s – there were nightclubs and record stores – and now it’s getting there again. Recent openings have helped bring back some life to the area.

“There’s some real cool stuff going on too, like directly opposite us – Nick Garrett signwriting [he gestures to the building opposite the cafe, where one of its regulars has his signmaking business], and Inkwa Tattoos [a friendly, family-run tattoo parlour] are a cool, creative bunch.”

As with all change, other things fluctuate with it, but Chris maintains a positive outlook – which is probably why Sugahill has such a welcoming atmosphere.

“We’ve definitely lost some customers since the changes,” he says. “But we’ve attracted new clientele at the same time. And then we have regulars who have supported us since the beginning, and have stuck with us through all the changes.”

That’s reflected in his interactions with people at the cafe – they’re friends as much as they are customers – and their involvement with it.

The signwriter across the road is responsible for the smart Arch Records sign on the shop’s left window – a nod to the importance of the music side of the business, but also to how much a part of the neighbourhood the place is.

Dave, one of Sugahill’s regulars, demonstrates this too. He explains how some mates (who actually arrive while we’re chatting) originally introduced him to the cafe, but that he and Chris later realised they’d met before: Dave worked in the record store that Chris used to frequent as a schoolkid.

Sporting a Stüssy jumper emblazoned with a Slick Rick photo (which he points out was taken by London photographer Janette Beckman, who used to live in a south London squat and worked at a Streatham youth club), Dave has grown up immersed in music – DJing and working on little-known (but influential) Crystal Palace pirate radio station, Starpoint FM.

“It’s a bit like a big boys’ club,” laughs Dave, when asked why he keeps coming back. He doesn’t mean it in an exclusory sense; more as a chance for him and likeminded music fans to come together regularly to catch up and enjoy some tunes.

“And look at the weather,” he gestures to the surprisingly bright and sunny January day. “It’s January and we’re sitting outside – it’s always sunny for the Sunday Social.”

There are plenty of other events in the pipeline too: in addition to the Sunday Social, Chris throws a regular vintage reggae night (the next one is on February 9), and for all the music lovers feeling a bit romantic this month, he’s holding a Valentine’s dance, playing Lovers’ Rock and soul music on February 14.

“What we like most about running the cafe is the people we meet,” says Chris.

With such a busy schedule lined up, and so many great records up for grabs, he’s bound to meet many, many more.

Dubplate Pearl Mix | Boiler Room x SYSTEM: Sounds Series at Somerset House Studios by BOILER ROOM https://ift.tt/2oJ19Pe

[generalechoes]

Regular reggae disco in North-East London playing dub, dancehall, roots, rockers, ska, rocksteady and other bass transmissions on two turntables and a space echo. The night is named after sadly departed MC Earl Anthony Robinson, the voice behind classic deejay tunes such as "Drunken Master".

For our April session we're delighted to welcome back our friends the Camberwell Connection, aka Dubplate Pearl and Mr Swing Easy. Dubplate Pearl is originally from West London: born in Notting Hill, grew up in Shepherds Bush, now lives in East Dulwich. Musically influenced by her parents who liked listening to jazz, soul, calypso, pop and reggae. She has previously played out solo and as part of the Sisters of Reggae collective. Mr Swing Easy makes up the other half of her current partnership, and as well as his noted skills on the decks, has also written an acclaimed book on his experiences in the reggae scene, ‘Englishman’.

We've hosted this duo on a few occasions before - both at the Trades Hall and at our old home The Victoria (r.i.p.). It's always a joy to have them and they always give us a very entertaining musical education with classic tunes and lost gems, running the gamut from rocksteady to dub to lovers rock. We're going to let them do their thing but also have a bit of tune-for-tune soundclash planned for the end of the night!

Come down and listen to some of the greatest music ever made in a beautiful old school club.

Free for Trades Hall Members £3 Guests and non-members Please help the trades staff by bringing the correct money for entry.
