📖Story Time📖
Me and Inertia go back donkey's years, all the way back to the days when we were just 2 smelly teenagers listening to nu-metal on a beat-up Discman after school, showing each other new bands, and sharing cool music with each other
One day in the summer of '07 while we were chilling at a friend's place he came up to me with this huge grin on his face and said JIMMY YOU HAVE TO HEAR THIS RIGHT FU***NG NOW!
I didn't realize it at the time, but what was about to happen was one of the defining moments that would radically alter the entire trajectory of my life. One of those moments where there is a seismic shift from before to after
He dragged me upstairs, handed me a large bifta, turned the speakers way up, and put on 'Rubber Chicken' by Caspa... Nothing would ever be the same again
I had no idea what I was listening to, it sounded so strange and alien, but I knew right away this was something I NEEDED to be a part of:
"What the f**k IS this? It's incredible!"
"It's this new sound called Dubstep"
The rest is history...
It's been 15 years since that moment changed my life. I still LOVE dubstep, I make dubstep, I run a dubstep label, I promote incredible dubstep artists who deserve to be heard, and it all can be traced back to the day Sam upended everything I thought I knew about music
THAT is why I am so happy and so f**king proud to be putting out his music on my label. Dead Pest Records owes its entire existence to Inertia and now, 15 years later, I'm finally able to repay a long-overdue debt of gratitude to my best friend!
Inertia - The Translucent EP [DPREP005] is out on Dead Pest Records on Friday December 2nd 2022 via all reputable streaming platforms and online stores!
After blessing us with his banger of a track "Drool Pool" all the way back in 2020 for our Vol.1 Comp we have long awaited the day we can put out a full EP from Inertia. We are happy to announce that
