Download J.O.E - Liondub Street Series, Vol. 55: Back to Basics (LDSSVOL055)

It's been a big year for J.O.E with proper scuds on the likes of Sub-Heavy, Calypso Muzak, 24 Karat and Dubplate Dread, now he seals the deal with a spot on the hallowed halls of Liondub International's Street Series. Seven tracks in total, J.O.E's gone in every angle with highlights hitting hard: 'Wait' is a nod towards the catchy, intoxicating Q&A style of Serum, 'Watch Me Dance' flips between a cheeky house sample and a savage coiled spring bassline while 'Patch This' strips things right back to the bare essentials - a sexy sub and rattling drums. And that's not even half of it. 90 thumbs up.
