Dubstep & Grime
April: 10 dubstep & grime releases you need to hear this month
Footsie, Slick Don, Fallow and more
Swi$jay 'Greaze' (Thanks For Trying Records)
Working under the tutelage of The Last Skeptik, young grime beatmaker Swi$jay is one for the future. His debut single ‘Greaze’ harks back to the early days of grime production: it’s rough around the edges, but uses classic techniques to build tension as he deploys strings, chops up warped bass tones and knits it all together with skippy beat patterns. All it’s lacking is an MC for now, but Swi$jay should be on your radar.
