Sach O is terrifying and dangerous on the decks. Terror Danjah had one of the most productive years in recent memory in 2010, going from “that other guy who invented Grime with Wiley” to a properly celebrated producer equally comfortable getting grimey on Butterz and Harddrive as he was dropping gremlin sounds on Planet Mu […]

Sach O’s sound speaks mass. No 128BPM House, plenty of Street Fighter sound effects, no turning down the aggression but no exaggerated heavy metal histrionics either: Dubstep originator Plastician sticks to his guns for the latest edition of his yearly mix throwing up a middle finger to the concept that the ravier end of Dubstep […]

Sach O is dropping science, chemistry and possibly AP physics. The received narrative is that Exothermic Reaction is a fluke, a long promised dub from a producer with little left to offer, generously provided by Non Plus, a label with whom the true credit lies. I don’t buy it. Skream has been releasing quality tunes […]

Sach O chant down Babylon. Dubstep’s worldwide ascension has no doubt been aided by the fact that it can be all things to all people. From its original expression of London’s urban dread, the genre has morphed into everything from guitar-free metal for the Facebook generation to neo-reggae to indie-approved gentility to proper electronica. The […]

Despite the Walking Dead, Aaron Frank continues to endorse Zombies. Calling Zomby’s new album his best seems slightly inaccurate. By now, it’s clear that every release is more warped and innovative than its predecessor. Oddly enough, it doesn’t feel as if Zomby is “progressing,”  as much as uncovering another place within himself. In years past, […]

Sach O doesn’t really want to think about the state of local radio. “Now I don’t mind being stuck in traffic cuz I can listen to Rinse.FM all day.” Sometimes, it’s the little things that make a difference. While Jay and Kanye unveiled a gaudy album cover for an album that promises to be about […]

Son Raw @ DJWeb.TV June 17, 2011
Son Raw could have probably done a bit more for the camera. As usual, I’m loathe to use this site for personal gain but this is pretty cool: see that video up there? That’s a stream of my performance last night on DJWeb.TV’s Beat Freakz show complete with trippy psychedelic effects and transitions. A-live-in-the-studio recording […]

Sach O thinks the only thing this video is missing is a Kool Keith sample. At this point Benga is Dubstep royalty, touring the festival circuit and dropping bombastic riffs – as a rockstar of his caliber should. When I caught him a few months ago with partner in crime Skream, I found their set […]

Sach O can’t wait to play this live. When I briefly spoke with Kevin Martin last year for an interview that never got published, he was thoughtful, respectful and genuinely interested in having a productive discussion about both his work and music in general. I always have trouble reconciling this with the fact that he […]

Since dropping Anidea last May, the Bristol-born Italian epithet better known as Guido has largely lain dormant. Presumably, he’s been soaking up some sun, smoking some spliffs, and strutting alongside the Shore to the delight of the gorilla-worshiping population. If only he could get on  MTV like his brethren. That’s the thing about Guido. Other […]
