’Aphid’ tune is a part of 12“ vinyl by DubKraft Records. The “XY“ EP marks 10 Years of prolific activity for DubKraft Records, a music label that runs under a simple motto: “Bass, Spirit, Character“. X is the Roman number 10, while Y obviously stands for “Years“.

The artists chosen for this very special release are some of the heavy-weights that have been most influential for DubKraft’s history: Label’s honcho Alien Pimp remixes an epic collaboration between UK drum&bass legend Loxy and the international combo Marginal, titled “X“.
