Invasion / Revenge

Support: Doc Scott, DBridge, Goldie, etc.

INVASION: Dom was once asked by Nico of No-U-Turn to do a remix of Ed Rush’s Mothership. Dom set to work, he had already smoked a lot of spliffs that day, and the tune took a turn towards the sci-fi film Dom had just been watching before he started. At the end of the session, Dom realized he’d forgotten to use any of Ed Rush’s sounds, so he decided he’d keep the just finished track for himself, as it had turned out alright! As he’d already written Mothership Remix on the DAT tape and promptly lost the sharpie he wrote it with…The name stuck, until now, 20 years later, when it was decided it should be named Invasion instead.

REVENGE: Originally made to be a DJ tool for several of the Blue Note DJ’s including Doc Scott and Peshay. This “quite mellow for Dom” roller became an often played fixture of the Hoxton Square club. Dom felt the switching bassline from clean to distorted as well as being the pinnacle of dopeness echo’d how his then girlfriend would “switch” at him for spending endless days and nights in the studio. Revenge was another tune lost, until several years ago, when a bunch of Dom’s old DAT’s turned up in a box under his mate’s stairs, alongside an N64, 4 controllers and a copy of Goldeneye.

Dom and Roland’s Label has gone from strength to strength from its conception in 2006. Featuring collaborations by Dom with other Artists such as Noisia, Hive and Amon Tobin, the label has continued to push sonic boundaries whilst staying true to its ethos of “not selling out”. It is currently in A “Dubs from the Dungeons” Phase releasing sought after unreleased music from the 90’s from various accomplished artists every month on limited edition gold vinyl.
