Bristol producer Gemmy is one of a New Generation of producers alongside Joker and Guido nicknamed the `Purple Trinity' and celebrated for their innovative sound. Gemmy's productions are like playdoh, bouncy and rounded. He takes elements of Grime, the G-funk of Dr. Dre and the warm electronics of Digidub and mixes them with the clean dayglo sensibility of 16-bit console classics like Sonic The Hedgehog giving his productions an almost synaesthetic quality, framing this with low-end histrionics for maximum dance floor impact. He's previously released 12�s on Punchdrunk and M4 records and had one 12" on Planet Mu. he also had the track `Rainbow Road' on Mary Anne Hobbs' `Wild Angels' compilation, but This double E.P. really showcases the different sides of his productions to date and in fine style! Side A 'Johnny 5' makes use of a bleepy melody matched to slurring waves of bass and snappy double time electro drums. Side B 'Dolla Digital' is an anthem. Gemmy's catchy sing song vocoder melody contrasts with double speed 808 toms, a fierce bass kick and rough midrange synths to make an unusual and rather lovely psychedelic song. Side C 'Wata Down Sound' manages to do something that sounds completely unique within a fairly standard dubstep template, making good use of a couple of choice samples, it starts with a rude melody that sounds like a synth impersonating an electric guitar, before a lightning-like flickering midrange bassline drops in. The Final track on Side D 'Shanti Riddim' is supreme 16-bit steppers dub, updated with a tight grid of drums and sub bass, a bubbling 8-bit bass line and a melody that wouldn't be out of place on an old Sega game. Tracklist: A: JOHNNY 5 B: DOLLA DIGITAL C: WATA DOWN SOUND D: SHANTI RIDDIM
