Bass-music heavyweight Scuba (a.k.a. Paul Rose) is at the helm of the next release in the long-running DJ-Kicks mix series, which, as one might expect, will feature a number of exclusive original, unreleased, and hard-to-find tracks. These include songs from Scuba’s own Hotflush label, and this one from 808 enthusiast Addison Groove (pictured above). Scuba has pointed to “An We Drop,” which is streaming below, as a focal point of the mix, explaining, “It’s a fusion of two things, that urban, UK kind of sound, and something more techno. It sums up what the mix and my music is about.” !K7 will release Scuba: DJ-Kicks on October 24.
