Philo & Dreadmaul started collaborating on tracks in Zoom sessions at the beginning of the pandemic. When they met at the Membrain Festival, they knew that their shared musical spirit was far from fleeting. Do It Right reflects their penchant for UK jungle music and features an epic intro, a dub-influenced bassline and two storytelling-style drops. Shame Bats plays with hardcore and turbo elements in a raw way. The promising producer duo makes their debut on Defrostatica with this two track 12" vinyl.
