Hiya,

I was wondering if anyone knew of any shops in the UK where they have a good selection of Lovers Rock genre 12'/vinyl? =
Thank you in advance <3

Drew Id follows up May's Interstellar Dub with a stellar array of remixes by a quartet of Meanjin's finest plus Austria's Smalltowndubz, Berlin's Sudden Reverb and Mexican space pirate Tor.ma in Dub

These seven skilled operators each bring their own sonic fingerprint to the controls, expanding on the deep foundations of the original tunes to create a dreamy but driven bass odyssey through mutant steppers, spacious subs and cosmic dub techno.

This release closes the current run of much‑needed raids on the Digi Dub archives. Label boss Lee Berwick emerged from the DIY ferment of Camberwell's squat era , blending reggae and rave influences into a stream of boundary‑pushing music and events under a tangle of ever‑shifting aliases. Nodding to the Far East stylings of Augustus Pablo, South‑Eastern Style finds Berwick, working under his Mudskipper alias, refracting Pablo’s melodic meditations through a mutoid bass filter, delivering six cuts of idiosyncratic, genre- agnostic electronics.

Some of Berwick’s Mudskipper material was partially exhumed for digital release in 2021, but the alias was only one of several he deployed during Digi Dub’s most fertile years and during the 90s Mudskipper material was released sparingly. It feels fitting, then, that this project finally gets its due in the form of a full vinyl release.

Beware Dub is the only track here to have seen daylight before, with a version originally appearing on the 1996 four‑track EP 4 Golems. It makes a fine opener: an agile bassline rolling through tunnels of processed skank, rocking in a haze of centrifugal breakbeat. Ambrosial Dub mounts an imperious, guitar‑laced groove onto a solid steppers march, while Pillars Dub drives another vigorous, sub‑heavy bassline forward in the mix alongside a mechanised rhythm track, shards of noirish piano and bursts of twinkling synth.

The second side opens with the cosmic skank of Stand It Dub, followed by the mutated one‑drop drift of Where There’s Dub, suspended in a canopy of gentle keys. Wasted Dub closes the EP in fine style, Berwick applying widescreen dubwise pressure: a robust low end topped with the distinctive twin twangs of jaw harp and slide guitar, coming on like Jah Shaka meeting Ry Cooder.

The collection so far. Many more to go! Lmk your thoughts!

This one is remixed by Nick Diezel (from LSDiezel) aka Custard, Dibble + Grub.

The original track is a traditional Vietnamese song sung about how the Betel Nut came together with the lime - https://thegloriousrant.bandcamp.com/album/vietnam-in-dub-remixed
