Echodub have just released their new (13th) EP in the form of DFRNT‘s Weapon 2010.
The original Weapon track was originally released back in 2008 on “Insectmind” and has since been brought up to date, and given a reworking. THere’s also a second version with a bit more in the way of beats. You can grab both versions at the new Echodub Bandcamp, or from Echodub’s website.
Between March 1st and May 25th 2010, DFRNT is going to be on the East coast of the USA, DJing from as far up as Burlington, Vermont to as far down as Orlando, Florida and a night in Puerto Rico. You can download the promotional mix from the site, and keep in tune with any additional dates on the site or on the DFRNT MySpace

As part of our hook-up with Sturban Clothing, I popped out the other day and shot some promotional pictures for our collab.
In the shots I’m wearing a ZooYork T-Shirt, an Ambiguous hood, and a pair of Fly53 Jeans.
A few of the shots can be found by reading on…

If I could recommend one thing for you to buy today it would be this – You can’t argue with getting all these tracks for just £1 – that’s less than the price of a pint!
I’m not going to make a big thing of this, because I have done elsewhere – so I’ll just gently nudge you in the direction of the promo site – and hope that you’ve got the sense to do yourself a favour and take a listen!!
OK, so I know it’s a bit cheeky to post about my own stuff, but those looking for a certain sound, might start using this forum, in which case I think it’s only fair to show them anything I do which might fall in to the same category.
I’ve put up 2 new tracks on the MySpace – http://www.myspace.com/dfrntdubstep
Aftermath & The Next Step.
The Next Step – A slow plodding track with warm open synths, and a high-end sparkly sound for melody. The drop provides a slow growling bassline, which never quite emerges from the shadows.
Aftermath – A sort of stabbed-out track with warm synths leading the sound, and some guitar-licks to provide something of a melody. Deep & dubby.
Your thoughts are welcome!
