BASIC010 - Deogen is available now via bandcamp. 50 Limited edition lathe cuts + instant digital download. Link in bio. Andromeda The Navigator 2 deep, hard hitting tracks from brand new alias Deogen. Some may know Webbo, Jake is a proper head when it comes to the deep-beats. Myself, Deselecta & Ethics recently played in Norwich at Space Studios where we spent the weekend with Jake and Apollo. Shout out Breakout crew! While staying with Jake he was playing all of us beats he had been working on and we were all proper blown away, it was a long time coming but only natural to have him on the Basics as a long term music friend who’s making killer beats... and that’s what l’ve always stood by when signing music for the label. Good music made by good people. I hope you guys enjoy these tracks as much as I do. Shouts to the supporters every time and the dj’s! This marks the 10th release on the label, the 10th limited edition lathe cut and this will be the last *lathe* cut. TRACKS WRITTEN & PRODUCED BY J.
