Chechnya Over Dub
The following appeared on Boomkat.
Thuggishly hardass Bryn Jones breakbeat noise tackle, ventured by Ukraine's I Shall Sing Until My Land Is Free, a new label "dedicated to all the fighters for freedom and independenceā.
Originally found on the 'Fatah Guerilla' 3CD set in 1996, 'Chechnya Over Dub' takes its place as the first move from a new label helping fund Ukrainian freedom - a cause we can only cosign. It's Muslimgauze in necksnap late '90s hip hop, dub noise and house mode, swirling sampled breaks and a couple of housey tumpers with overeasy amounts of distortion in a model that could be heard as a pre-echo of contemporary badasses such as FUMU or Rat Heart.

Chechnya Over Dub" is totally groovy, midtempo-beats connects with industrial noise and language-scraps to dance-pure sound-collages. "Camel Abuse Does Not Egzist In Mogadisu" sounds very strongly like house, it is however a 7/8 time
Dedicated to an independent Chechnya.

Dedicated to an independent Chechnya.
"There is not a single misanthropic ideology in the World, even in theory, acting more cruelly and cynically than russism ... No moral principles - they are all like animals. I don't want this war to stop. I need this war, its continuation. This war will go to the territory of Russia - whether Russia wants it or not ... And the Western countries, the world community will not let it be stopped in order to completely isolate Russia and destroy it as a state, so that this predatory beast on Earth no longer exists." - Dzhokhar Dudayev, the president of free Chechnya. April 1995.
