The original track was taken from Dirty Dubsters ''Special Request'' album from Nov 2015. Pepper waxes lyrical over a Dubby / Dancehall riddim. The guys have enlisted the remix support from Irish superhero KORMAC who does not disappoint with his Ragga-House party style re work that will plant feet firmly on the floor when the beat drops!
Available on on Juno / Itunes and all good online retailers now from Irish Moss Records.
Just before the only season where it is standard practice to sit down (possibly lie down) and graze on left over Turkey, Pringles and tins of assorted chocolates while you watch endless hours of TV. we at Irish Moss Records thought it'd be a good idea to release this beast. The Reggae tune calling for you to ''sort out your life'' and telling you ''it nuh right to watch TV from morning to night''. UK Newcomer DR King and Veteran YT link on this track and remixes come in Dancehall, Jungle and Garage styles from DJ Tzinas, Frisk & Solstice and Dirty Dubsters. Drop the remote and take a listen:

Single Release Date: 11th September 2015
Album Release "Special Request" release date: 9th October 2015
Just a few weeks ago, our fearless leaders at Irish Moss made an exciting announcement. The Dirty Dubsters are all done their full-length album, Special Request! Barry and Jay have been locked in the lab for months now, perfecting the sounds that showcase everything Irish Moss is all about, and the results are nothing short of FIYAH! Their first single "Big Sound" has been making the rounds for a while, and it's time they opened up about it. Always shining the spotlight on everyone else, I nailed down Bazza and Jay to give me all the details on "Big Sound", from their partnership with Chip Fu and Screechy Dan to what it was like to finally finish Special Request. Big tings agwan!
Irish Moss Kayla: You guys have just
completed a full-length album. Must be an amazing feeling! How long have you
been working on it for?
DD: Yeah it’s been good to
finish this one. we’ve been here before in 2012 for our Fire it up album
but this one was a lot less stressful, it just kind of came together as a
result of us sidelining our projects for 2014 to focus on our Irish Moss
Records label. We signed lots of music and have over 30 releases on the label
now. We were also swapping projects and collabs back and forth and realised one
day that we had about 8 tracks finished with some really good artists. We had a
kind of Eureka moment and thought yeah ‘let's put another album together', and
here we are.
IMK: You guys chose “Big
Sound”, your track with Chip Fu and Screechy Dan as your first single from the
album. Is there a reason you selected this one in particular?
DD: We both really liked the track.
We have worked with the two guys before on a single that went out on NICE UP
records a few years back. This was a kind of follow up tune. It took a while to
get together, it was recorded in Dublin and two different sessions in Brooklyn
and prob took the guts of a year to complete. The two guys did a top job on it
and it just came together really nicely, We’ve been playing this one at our at our
gigs for about a year now and always get a great reaction to it so it just felt
like the likely candidate for the first single.
IMK: You’ve worked with Chip
and Screechy in the past. It must have been a rock solid team since you wanted
to work together again. Is that the case?
DD: Yeah, they’ve always
delivered on the projects we've done together. Things take more time in
general when you're working with two very busy guys based in Brooklyn. You
have to send them the right beat and be patient.
IMK: How did you get linked up
with those two anyways?
DD: We hooked up with Screechy
via a mutual friend, Whandah, who we had a track with before. We have been big
fans of Screechy since we heard him on the Kenny Dope classic "Boomin in ya
Jeep" ... and Chip Fu from the 90’s hip-hop group theFu Schnickens. I don’t think the pair had
collaborated on a project till we got them both on our tune "Chant Down
Babylon". Both are legends in their own right and they work wicked together. We're looking forward to continued works with these two and maybe even a tour at
some point.
IMK: How long until we hear the
next single?
The next single is out in
July and Features Irish HipHop MC legend Ri Ra from the group Scary Eire.
Blackout JA provides the hooks. Our good buddy Matjazz is producing an animated
video to accompany this one along with remixes from MAARS and Adam Faz. We’ve
also flipped a jungle remix to feature onthis one.
So stay tuned, Dirty Dubsters aren't done yet. Next up, single number two! Special Request is full of bangers (TRUST ME), so watch for the album's full release. This thing is worthy of daily play, and has been getting rinsed hard everywhere I go for the last couple months. Big ups Barry and Jay!
