[TIMEBLIND]

Veteran producer Timeblind is originally from Minneapolis, then New York and lives now currently in Berlin. In the mid 90s he was mostly known for his minimal techno; since then he has released dancehall, jungle, hip-hop, proto-dubstep and has a few leftfield dubstep releases on the way. The mix he's done for Riddim 'n' Bruise is a reflection of his varied influences and ideas, a seamless flow taking in jazz, dub, techno, old hardcore, baile funk, jungle and all points in between.

Check his new material on the Version label, coming soon.

[KANSAS CITY PROPHETS]

Brixton based Kansas City Prophets have been producing for several years now, honing his distinct razor sharp electro / ragga sound on various imprints starting with Control Tower (Radioactive Man's label), Seed, the infamous Grim Dubs series, and new label Balkan Vinyl, which includes a remix from fellow Brixton resident Point B.

KCP have recently been working with vocals from MC Soom T, (Glasgow) and the legendary dub poet Linton Kwesi Johnson (biog below).

Linton Kwesi Johnson was born in 1952 in Chapelton, Jamaica. He moved to London in 1963. He joined the Black Panther movement in 1970, organising a poetry workshop and working with Rasta Love, a group of poets and percussionists. He joined the Brixton-based Race Today Collective in 1974. His first book of poems, Voices of the Living and the Dead, was published by the Race Today imprint in 1974. His second book, Dread, Beat, an' Blood (1975) includes poems written in Jamaican dialect, and was released as a record in 1978. He is widely regarded as the father of 'dub poetry', a term he coined to describe the way a number of reggae DJs blended music and verse.
