Ital & Vital – Magma

<< Upfront RwdFwd Exclusive >>

Fresh 7” pressure on Ojah’s Alchemy Dubs label! –

Following on from the wicked ‘Wisdom / Awasa’ 12″ last year, Alchemy Dubs step forward for a series of 7″s – the Melodica Trilogy.
Each of the discs will feature different players and riddims, with the Melodica playing a core part of course.

The first in the series, pressed up on high-quality wax and served in a nice card sleeve, presents a solid couple of cuts from the vaults of Ojah’s studio sessions –
This time alongside his friend Puppa Shan, together under the name ‘Ital & Vital’.
The rootical steppers production features Camila Monasterio on melodica, guiding the drum & bass foundations with ease, letting the filtered bassline bubble underneath whilst the percussion keeps things moving.
Flipside, Ojah and Puppa Shan take control of the mixing board, for a ‘four hand’ version excursion.

When Ojah is not building his own riddims or running the Alchemy label, he is a proffessional sound engineer, and this ear for dynamics and quality of sound really shows on these productions – each part sits in the mix and each vibration hits the right frequency – sure to make the right kind of impact on a soundsystem, or your home hifi.

Last but not least, the records were cut and mastered by Lewis at Stardelta, mastered via 1/2 inch tape and pressed up at Optimal, for maximum pressure.

High-quality modern roots, 100% niceness.

Edition of 500, vinyl-only.
Hand-stamped and hand-numbered.
Served in printed reversed board kraftliner sleeve.
