Limited Edition 500 pressing in full colour gatefold sleeve. The Others’ prolific work rate and consistently high quality output has made him the most released artist on Dub Police and an integral part of the label, so we are proud to announce that he is returning once again with a brand new six track EP for the label, ‘First Flight’. Opening the EP is title track ‘First Flight’, a fiery rave mutation for the bass generation that plays the ecstatic synth lines off against a snarling beast of a bassline. Next up, ‘Planet X’ is a futuristic sonic journey that packs a serious punch. Swinging and hitting in all the right places, taut technoid synths, snapping drums and jagged shards of intertwining basslines sweep through this lethal track. This is followed by ‘Say To You’ which showcases The Others’ versatility perfectly, switching from the 4×4 drum pattern and uplifting pads into a tough half-step beat, growling bassline and rave-inflected chord sequences. Completing the vinyl package is ‘Break Your Neck’ with Trolley Snatcha, a deadly monster of a track cutting open the heavyweight swathes of bass with the jarring drum patterns – This is going to be causing some serious damage! The EP finishes with digital only track ‘Skynet’, which opens with rattling drum breaks and eerie pads before dropping into a maniacal bassline that bursts through the track with a hyperactive energy that it is impossible to resist. With the EP, you will also be able to get hard as nails free track ‘Get Outta Here’. As well as a slew of releases for Dub Police Alex Crawford, AKA The Others, has released on a number of other revered labels including Boka, Tempa and Wheel & Deal and remixed the likes of Above & Beyond, Pyramid and Breakage. Pair this with a hectic touring schedule that regularly takes him all over the world and you have one of the hardest working artists in dubstep, who rightfully stands at the forefront of the fast-moving scene.
