Sales Note
Big Miz returns to Shall Not Fade, this time with a collaborative project featuring some incredible producers; Hayley Zalassi, Van Damn & Bessa! More

After a summer of touring and working on remixes, Big Miz readies this new self-released 5 track EP. The first outing on Miz Records since February, three solo cuts and two collaborations bring us yet another versatile spin on the modern house sound. With aquatic sound design and tight kicks introducing ‘Causal Loop’, an opener that quickly morphs into a Legowelt / Alden Tyrell type synth-led jacking house jam, the EP wastes no time in getting going. There’s a sharp vocal sample of the narcotic persuasion that brings to mind Paul Johnson’s classic ‘Give Me Ecstasy’, whilst the clubbier vibe of those early LIES 12”s is also present. The title track is a drum machine workout that gradually ends up in a loopy 90s style minimal techno groove, whereas ‘An Facile’ pushes and pulls at the dancefloor with a mean acid line and makes reference to a gig that may or may not have taken place at a now shut-down Glasgow club many moons ago. You’ll need to ask Miz. Over to Side B and ‘Sleep Well’ brings in production help from fellow Scottish stalwart Ewan McVicar, the pair working on the tune in a hotel room after a show. Evidently no sleep was had as the swirling acid lines, modulated rimshots and tempo trickery combine to make one of the trippiest jams on the record. Things draw to an end with an Underground Resistance sampling colab with Good Thing resident DD Watermelon. More

Straight out of Glasgow's southside, DABJ welcome back Big Miz for the first release on the label in what has been a very difficult year for everyone. Four tracks of robotic future-disco oddities guaranteed to bring some fun back into our lives.

Hand stamped emerald green vinyl with inlay card brought to you with love from the DABJ family. Stay safe everyone and hopefully see you on the dancefloor again very soon. More

Dixon Avenue Basement Jams feel extremely honoured and stupidly excited to finally be able to announce this!
After his first three EPs on the label, the much talked about debut album from Glasgows Big Miz is ready to drop on Dixon Avenue Basement Jams!
From start to finish Build/Destroy really showcases his effortless feel for the weird funk. From the tweaked out organ solos on "Hammond Groove" and the live bass jam of "Straight Thru Cru" to the straight up brain rattler of "Gear Tension". This is Big Miz at his undiluted best and cements the fact that he is one of the UKs most exciting raw talents. 2018 move aside, the big man has already owned ya.

DJ Haus (the hardest working man in show business!) teams up with Mak & Pasteman for our landmark quarter century release!!! How the hell did that happen? we only expected to manage about 4 releases tops? We are really proud to welcome these guys to the ever expanding DABJ family, and they have not let us down with this first release... The title track and "Bang It" are room shaking heavy bass numbers, which we have been rinsing for almost a year now... Drive MF sounds like Paul Johnson and Daniel Bell "stuck in an elevator" (or some other bullshit analogy like that...). All 3 tracks = essential. period. "Buy on sight" etc etc... Carefully hand stamped by the two slackest men in show business (or at least one of them anyway...) Shout out once again to Lindsay Todd of Firecracker for the sick stamp designs!

Deep in the bowels of the Dixon Avenue basement lived a man so outrageously overweight we used him for a sofa. King Chubby, a suite chap but a bit cheeky. Said the only reason he was humpty dumpty was cause every time he rode yer maw she made him a sandwich. He tried dieting but nothing worked. We took drastic action and wired woofers direct to his lardy lugs with In Basements Vol 2 blasting in on repeat. Thanks to the squelchy genius of tunes like Luna, Save It and Sneaking Out our big boned bro boogalooed himself skinny. He bopped till the weight dropped. King’ Chubby’s pumpalicious now and you can be to if you sign up to Casio Royale’s latest DABJ dance diet plan.
