p brothers feat. boss money & ress connected New Religion / Shoot 'Em Down (12", £6.25)

The mighty P Brothers return with this two-track taster for their long-awaited LP ‘The Gas’. Arguably the UK’s finest hip hop production team, DJ Ivory and Paul S have hit heavyweight gold once again with another pair of tracks that they’ve been driven to make because it’s what they want to hear and no-one else is doing it, and the formula shows no signs of losing any potency just yet. Already getting plays from such prestigious selectors as DJ Premier, along with heavy exposure on 1Xtra and Radio One, and picked for the coveted ‘Chairmans Choice’ spot in the March issue of XXL. Reviews in The Wire, HHC (“Hard with ahypnotic twist… no brainer”), and Echoes (“Two solid dark grooves with eardrum-hurting boom-bap drums unapologetically bringing back the essence of rap from another era… get involved”). Main, instrumental and radio versions both sides. Limited vinyl pressing of 500 copies.
