Transition. It's a word that takes you from one place to another. It's also a small studio round the back of an unassuming building in South London. More specifically, it's the working HQ of Jason Goz, the man who helped shape the dubstep sound with his Neumann cutting lathe -- and his higher level ears, if course -- and it is the first port of call for a whole roll-call of artists from original nuttahs like Mala, Coki, Loefah, Burial, Kode 9, Skream and Benga to the international artists who only want their shit cut at Transition, as well as a heady brew of musicians including everyone from Jah Shaka to funky man-of-the-moment DJ Paleface to avant-garde ambient don Christian Fennesz. Initially, most of the custom came from the reggae community. Word soon spread and thanks to some flyers in Big Apple and a call from Magnetic Man's Arthur "Artwork" Smith, Jason became the man that all the early dubstep producers went to for their dubs. It's also why he runs two labels, one named after the cutting house Transition and another named Ringo, after Jason's sadly departed dog who would be there, lying under the desk at 2am when Jason would be cutting and cutting for late-night sound-clash business. The labels are going strong, which is why Ringo has compiled these CDs of past and future releases, including 3 brand-new exclusive tracks. Other artists include: Distance, LD, Cluekid, G Squad, Kromestar, Johnny Clarke, Mr. Lager, Alyce Be and Silkie.
