Song of the Day: Hop In the Place – Sticky Blood (ft. LDizz)

sticky blood hop in the place

Following on from their Rhythm & Grime single Garn Again featuring Snowy and Yxngz, the production duo STICKY BLOOD keep smashing out the tracks and another one Hop In The Place. This track takes on Grime x Trap vibes, with its deep bass and beats, and the hard-edged lyrics.

Their work-rate is second to none, with a string of releases such as their debut EP I-D in 2015 and follow-up EP Blood Is Stickier Than Water gaining support from Red Bull, Complex, Radio 1Xtra, Clash, Wonderland, NME, Toddla T, Mistajam and Monki.

The two are now joined by another Steel City representative L Dizz who is from the new generation of Grime, and has gained attention from 1Xtra DJMistajam. He distinguishes himself between a melodic, anthemic chorus to rapping with a demanding, unyielding flow with a strong and powerful delivery that commands your attention. It’s backed by STICKY BLOOD’s alarming synths, snappy snares, militant hi hats all backed with a bass big enough to shake the grimiest of raves up.

They are already unsettling other producers across the UK with their unique and explorative sounds and wave of releases, and will continue to do so throughout the year. The anticipation is growing and growing for the new duo in town.

Having smashed it with the original, Sheffield’s hottest grimsta (that’s grime star, just in case you’re wondering) COCO comes back harder with two remixes of the single, Big Bou Yah with Jammz, Terminator and Trigga  on the vocal remix (watch the video) while Walter Egodrops drops a brand new dub of the hugely supported 1Xtra’s Toddla T original.

Big Bou Yah has been heavily playlisted across radio and TV, making COCO the one to watch for 2016. The three-minute explosive banger comes as the follow-up to debut single Target Practice, released via Girls Music in July, which earned the upriser serious recognition from Earmilk and GRM Daily.

New Release: Sticky Blood – Professional

 

Andy Nicholson and Jamie Shield  – aka- STICKY BLOOD, have just released their mysteriously moody effort, Professional, the first release from their forthcoming E.P. 

Formerly members of Arctic Monkey, the duo combined their talent in 2013 with the aim of bringing the sound of the future. Setting up in their home town, Sheffield they’ve perfected their skills and focus on working with talented artists across the industry. 

They produced Terri Walker’s album last year, which was championed by  national radio stations from the likes of Annie Mac to Gilles Peterson. BBC Radio 1’s Toddla T and The People’s Charlie Sloth are massive fans of STICKY BLOOD’s production style. They even managed to raise the producer’s eyebrows at Red Bull, who are eager for these boundary pushers to record a session, set for release in August.  

Having produced drum & bass beats for Mc DRS, the production maestro’s are currently creating rhythms for George The Poet, Coco and Tom Prior…it look pretty certain that 2015 is set to be a productive year for these guys!
