Keysound Recordings presents a grimey addition to the family: an EP from JT the Goon, fresh from his critically acclaimed 2015 debut album on Oil Gang. Four versions of the "Oil on Ice" riddim, including three VIP versions commissioned for the label so that "Oil on Ice" could be played in the camp's rolling 130bpm sets. JT the Goon (an early member of Slew Dem Crew alongside Chronik, Waifer, Rage, et al.) co-produced "Gunman Riddim," the track that made the Korg Triton's amsfeedbacklead preset a grime staple almost as recognizable as Wiley's eski click and Musical Mob's Pulse X bass hits.

JT the Goon is a grime legend, but you might not know that. JT's music combines grime's raw power with the rich melodies that he's mastered in his development as a producer since the mid-2000s. His full-length debut, King Triton, evokes classic westerns and martial arts movies without ever losing sight of the fact that it's first and foremost a grime record. In addition to the AMS Feedback Lead that JT helped popularize, it draws from a range of the Korg Triton sounds that are at the genre's heart. Equally respected by grime veterans and its new breed, this is one of the genre's best, operating with authority. Includes a collaboration with Dullah Beatz and a remix by Rabit.
