"Aquatic Lab Sessions Vol. 1 is a diverse package consisting of a selection of Aquatic Lab's vinyl catalogue combined with previously unreleased material. The compilation is constructed to be a collection of flowing styles, capturing everything from deep atmospheric textures to some serious sub rocking big rig material. The CD album features debut Aquatic Lab release by Caspa & Rusko 'King George,' 'Colditz' by UK Garage legend Zed Bias, 'Nah Go Dung Deh' by grime/dubstep star Cotti and 'The Darkness' & 'Dark Passenger' by acclaimed producer Seven. First up is a chilling future-scape progression titled 'Ankoku Butoh' by Moving Ninja; an organic journey that is unique in every possible way. Further on, the album showcases a wealth of underground sounds from the purist hard stepper 'Wasps' by P-Vans, to the dub inspired rhythmic 2-Step roller 'Hollandia,' produced by Spherix. New York based Australian producer Flash brings forth a hollowed out 4/4 dread bass long player in the form of 'Right Here' and Kila Mega Giga Tera, a live group consisting of Distro & Dub FX, deliver a kick-stepping, hard skanking piece of kit entitled 'Subsonic.' Vista comes with a sub shaking hybrid of moody minimalism in the shape of 'Neptune,' and to round off the installment, bass scientist Twitch culminates the release with an original piece of wobble bass that is brimming with character and primed for the dance floor."

"Aquatic Lab's fifth installment reinforces the preceding release with yet more ammunition from Seven. 'Dark Passenger' is a track that needs no introduction. It has received solid support form the likes of N Type, Benga, Skream and Youngsta. One of Seven's finest productions to date, 'Dark Passenger' is an insistent slab of stepper bass science, all formatted into a brutal rolling trek. The flipside features 'Conspiracy,' a massively anticipated track delivering a deep lesson in complex rhythm construction crafted upon a deadly textured bassline. Absolutely massive -- don't sleep!"

LAB 002EP
|
"Aquatic Lab's second installment features the original dark breakbeat garage pioneer Zed Bias. A legendary figure, he is credited for laying the foundations of the dubstep sound. For LAB002, Zed Bias deploys two clean cuts of the 2-step/dubstep variation. Firstly, 'Solidarity Drop' -- a high grade drum rollout session equipped for the summer dance -- featuring the combined production talents of Joshua Black. On the flip -- 'Colditz' -- the big bass drum steppa of 2008 with a bassline designed for maximum sound system annihilation."
