EU Order info
Unfortunately, the UK is no longer part of the EU - This means that certain shipments sent to addresses there from us may be subject to tax and / or import duty - All orders sent from RWDWD are sent ‘DDU’ - That is, duty unpaid - any import tax and/or duty is the sole responsibility of the buyer.
If you would like to use our reserve function to group several orders into one large shipment, we can arrange for it to be sent tax and duty pre-paid so you don’t have to worry about it at a later date - Contact us for more information.
Special Edition, of 150, these are served with unique ink transfer stamps on the printed sleeve.
The catalogue number suggests otherwise, but Peng Sound Records are indeed presenting us with their 10th vinyl release, roughly four years after the incendiary 'Find Jah Way' kicked things off in all the way back in 2012... Many thought that the world would end that year, but things really got going for Peng Sound from there on in, moving from the occasional music events in the Take Five Cafe to fully-fledged DIY record label.
From the very start, it was clear that the label would serve as a community platform for the extended 'Peng Sound Family'. Moving forward with a collaborative ethos that has established itself through close friendships and attitude developed via the Peng Sound dances that took place since 2009 in Bristol.
The latest incarnation on the label, is the unearthing of 'Counter Attack' -
Full pressure, past-midnight soundsystem gear, built by Digistep and Stryda, firing from all angles as soon as the Piano intro-lead gives way to the momentous bass and drum parts -
these steppers cuts have acted as crucial dubplate weaponry for Iration Steppas, Gorgon, Dubkasm over the years... The first time this dubplate got played, was at Zion Station Festival, in Italy during a three way sound session between Dubkasm, Vibronics and Young Warrior.
And those of you who made it to the session, or got a copy of the cassette recordings that were issued on the label later that year, will probably also remember hearing this one getting played at the first Teachings In Dub & Peng Sound dance at the Trinity Centre in January 2015, where Counter Attack set the dance alight with soundsystem pressure. It was for this occasion, that Gorgon Sound had got hold of the stems and restyled 'Counter Attack' in their own inimitable way -
The Gorgon Sound remix comes locked with an extra fluid low-end melody, crushing it's way through the first 3 mins, before stripping things down to a heavy dubwise section for the last part of the tune, with a propulsive bassline that is fittingly only a few notes away from the first ever record that brought Gorgon and Dubkasm together – Find Jah Way.
Play all three cuts of Dubkasm's Counter Attack, and then finish things off with the Gorgon Sound remix, and you can mash up the dance for a solid quarter of an hour... Or maybe we should make that, 20 mins – rewinds included!
As always, the first pressing comes pressed on heavyweight 12” and is served in a printed sleeve, hand-stamped and designed by Studio Tape-Echo.
For this special edition, each print is transferred onto the sleeve using a solvent transfer technique... A real D.I.Y. labour that involves the transferral of ink from printed paper to the sleeve, all whilst avoiding the inhalation of irritant fumes.
These are limited to 150 copies, hand-stamped and numbered – each one looks a little different.
