Sorry for the utter lack of posts over the last number of weeks. We’ve both been busy moving into a new place and getting everything situated. Soon we should be back on the normal grind and bombskwad should be back in full swing. We’ve got some legit productions coming your way as well to be on the lookout for.
Stumbled across this video today and was pleasantly surprised by the musical choice that comes in around 2:20. Enjoy =).
If you haven’t heard of DJ Madd yet, then here is the skinny: Madd hails from Budpest, Hungary and is now based in Bristol. He has been putting out tracks for the last several years and gained support from the likes of Skream, Breakage, Joe Nice, Mary Anne Hobbes, Ikonika, and more. His tunes aren’t as raunchy as some of the other tracks we have posted and favor more of Breakeage’s style-the drums really roll and his ground swelling bass push the tracks forward. I’ve been listening to Madd’s tunes on repeat for the past couple weeks- So here is a grab bag of select favorites:
Split the Atom dropped back in April, mix of drum and bass with some slower tracks and a little bit of a dubstep vibe. Very good all around. There’s another Foreign Beggars collab on it, although I think “Contact” is a much better song.
22tape shot us an email earlier tellin’ us about his new EP “Mosaicchangetone” and we’re glad he did. In the game since 92′ 22tape has been producing vinyl based hip hop out of a variety of places. Apparently producing all of these tracks while in Denver, LA, and Dublin, he shows a good amount of variety while still keeping the tracks simple and bangin’. Tons of low end bass throughout and a dope glitch vibe put him among the likes of dimlite and prefuse, but at the same time his tracks give off a more relaxed hip hop vibe than the more recent glitch hop endeavors by heavy hitters like FlyLo and Alex B. This is the third track off the EP and gives a good impression of the quality of tracks throughout.

I had never heard of these cats before, but in my opinion they blow Eoto’s “live dubstep” out of the water.
