Dubstep & Grime
April: 10 dubstep & grime releases you need to hear this month
Footsie, Slick Don, Fallow and more
Fallow 'Loco/Touch Ya Knees' (Blood Frenzy)
Manchester’s Fallow has been a fixture in instrumental grime circles for the last few years, and although his debut on wax has taken longer than expected, the delay feels fully vindicated here. A-side ‘Loco’ is a killer starting point, as glossy, earworm melodies and razor-sharp claps sit above a snarling, heavyset beat, while B-side ‘Touch Ya Knees’ is all pitched-up dancehall vocals and thumping, 4x4 bassline rhythm.
