Stream the new Night Slugs compilation: Allstars Vol. 2
Two years since the last collection, Night Slugs have released the second volume in their ‘Allstars’ series. The last couple of year have been pretty big for the label, with Bok Bok‘s first “proper” release coming out, an incredible ‘Club Constructions’ EP from KW Griff (though this is surprisingly absent from the compilation) and another game-changing release from Girl Unit.
L-Vis 1990 drops a new mix for Night Slugs
Finally following on from Bok Bok‘s rumbling, techno-infused garage onslaught that kicked this series off, L-Vis 1990 has taken the helm to dish out a mix of house, techno, garage and a few other things to boot.
Bok Bok’s Southside EP gets remixed
As with Claude VonStroke’s take on Girl Unit’s colossal ‘Wut’, Night Slugs did not seek this project out. Instead Rinse FM regular Sir Spyro and DJ Vjuan Allure took the initiative and mixed up their own interpretations of ‘Silo Pass’.

Girl Unit releases long-awaited follow-up to ‘Wut’
For those of us not content with the decidedly brilliant Claude VonStroke remix of 2010′s ‘Wut’, this news should come as a huge relief: Girl Unit is back with a new EP on Night Slugs.
L-Vis 1990 kicks off new Night Slugs 12″ series
It’s been a while since L-Vis 1990 released anything on his own label; 2010′s ‘Forever You’ marked the last time we a saw a Night Slugs label on his productions. Well, Night Slugs has just announced the beginning of a new series of 12″ records designed for “peak time” usage and that the first volume will be a collection of new L-Vis 1990 tracks.

New collaboration between Bok Bok and Jam City
It seems that 2011 is the year of the collaboration: Four Tet and Burial, Thom Yorke and everyone else, and now it’s the turn of Night Slugs bad boys Bok Bok and Jam City. While it’s not quite the drastic juxtaposition that a Thom Yorke/MF Doom collaboration would be, it’s certainly just as exciting.
Both artists are well-known to anyone interested in bass music or, more specifically, the wonky brand of house that the Night Slugs crew put out. Jam City’s introverted brand of Garage as seen on last year’s ‘Magic Drops’ makes sense against the skewed basslines and techy-leanings of Bok Bok.
Check out their debut track together ‘Crude Speculations’ to see why everyone’s hoping the suitably named Bok Jam partnership will be a long-term one.
