EXCLUSIVE NEW DOWNLOAD: Mr. Scruff - Hold The Dub
Mr. Scruff might’ve made his name spinning cross-genre sets at Manchester clubs like Manumission and his (still going!) party Keep It Unreal, but in addition to music, DUDE MAKES TEA! In an era of clothing lines and energy drinks being hawked by anyone with an Interscope deal, it’s great to see an artist proudly put their name on a soothing morning (or mid-afternoon) beverage. “Hold The Dub” (from Mr. Scruff's new album Ninja Tuna) has been steeped into murky underwater funk, centering around a riff that sounds like a fingernail scratching away at neoprene and taping it together with chain-dragging drums, some droopy synths burps and the voice of a coffee house diva. Brew yourself some black chai or whatever and use this tune to explore the cobwebs up in your mindgrapes.
