2024 repress!

released in 2008 and quickly disappearing into dub obscurity, this heavyweight 12 returns with four essential cuts that perfectly encapsulate the Jahtari sound where chiptune meets the echo chamber. The EP kicks off with Blaze Dem's Roots Defender, a hypnotic concotion of deep basslines and eerie samples from a Swedish cult ritual, setting a heavy tone right from the start. disrupt's cinematic Kozure Okami follows, channeling Black Ark vibes through 8-bit synth explorations.
