This track is making massive waves around the internet in the UK simply because it appeals to the UK Bass heads, the dubstep massive and the drum and bass crew from whence it came. Produced by @Dubphizix with @Skepticaluk and featuring the rhythmic artistic poetry from Strategy aka @BrokeNenglish1 this enigmatic drum and bass release does not follow any standard rules nor does keep itself inline with the rest of the genre. It is almost a groundbreaking release.

The track is of a mellow and relaxed pace with a haunting tribal drum beat and sinister bass it comes across as a dark number. There really is not much to say about it other than the unintelligible lyrics are awkward to grasp but the groove and cadence of the record has truly the most infectious combination of hooks I have come across in a while. This is ambient DnB with class and style cruising at 87bpm.

If drum and bass was a Christmas present then this would be the surprise gift that you have always wanted and never asked for.

This is essential. This is ‘Marka’.

UPDATE: I’ve managed to track down the lyrics for the record. I’ve placed them below but don’t quote me on the accuracy!

‘Marka’ by Dub Phizix and Skeptical feat Strategy is out now released by the label created by @dBridge, Exit Records.

“Stinking of issy miyake dark rum and the marijuana
Step inna mi lake and swim with the piranha
Anytime mi drop mi go put down a marka
If it nuh money say whe dem bother talk for?
Dem a try fi hold up a bank wid a banana
Yeah we pree the whole ting panorama
Whole heap a gun talk they don’t really want no drama
We a kill dem a bloodclaat gain
Got the tings on lock down again
Them a tek ten shots in again
Dem pon a old pan sound dem again
Man a gash dem and light them again
Becaa me nah hyping again
Man are ready fi di war, when it comes on top, ‘ca me nah feel frightened again”
