Ninjatune just announced the next single off The Bug's forthcoming new album, London Zoo: "Angry" featuring Tippa Irie on the A-side with "Ganja" featuring Flowdan on the B-side. The 12" vinyl and the digital download both drop June 16th. Whoever writes the press releases for Ninjatune does such a smashing job, it leaves me with nothing to add. So, without further ado:Kevin Martin AKA The Bug...

The Bug has a "Poison Dart" that he's aiming at future dub massives. The noise-dub producer recently signed to Ninja Tune for the release of his new album, due sometime next year. Ninja Tune must be pretty excited about The Bug's new music, because they just released a wicked video for his latest, "Poison Dart" featuring UK/Jamaican chatter Warrior Queen, and pressed two EPs for it, each with...

Now this is a heavy hit of some serious Reggae experimentation brought to you by The Bug. The Bug is Kevin Martin (aka Techno Animal). This has to be one of the hard hittinest sonic bong hits I've heard in a long time. This album pulls no punches whatsoever. It's like grime mixed with dancehall. It's distorted techstep mixed with dub mixed with some terrifying MC's from hell. I like it. ...

It's Saturday. My heads still hurts. Too much bass? Or never enough? Atmosphere was electric in Twisted Pepper last night. Just to give you a flavour.. No Warrior Queen with The Bug but as you can hear Flow Dan was in full effect. If you like this try: A birthday present: Waxy Cocktail mix The Bug & Warrior Queen [...]

London Zoo, the latest missive from London's Kevin Martin, a.k.a. The Bug, is heavy enough to be one of those peak statements, an album that feels like the logical culmination of the notorious producer's 20-year career. That's quite something, considering Martin's participation in projects like Techno Animal, God, Ice, and more recently Razor X Productions. The scope of this album, however, cha...
