DJ C & Zulu; Darling- Community Library,
U.S/U.K. (12-inch vinyl) 2008
"The dynamic duo of DJ C and MC Zulu hook up again for another rugged
bashment squeeze on ‘Darling'. The title cut tracks a similar
route to their killer ‘body work' riddim, rolling on the same
mid paced bashment tempo but this time adding a rude grinding electro riff
and industrial cowbell to rough it up some more in vocal and instrumental
versions. Ghislain Poirier steps in on remix duties, adding a much needed
slab of bottom end pressure and tweaking the rhythm with subtle phasing
and flanging for a future bashment effect. Rugged rudeboy bizzle - KILLER
twelve."

DJ
C; Sonic Weapons Full-Length Album - WIMM Recordings,
Japan (CD / Download)
DJ C's debut full-length Sonic
Weapons CD features guest
appearances by Chicago-based bad-man ragga vocalist Zulu, world renowned
Viennise thereminist Pamelia Kurstin, wicked wicked Boston riddim scholar
Wayne&Wax,
Jamaican vocalists Wasp and Dami D, and U.K. toaster Quality Diamond.
DJ
C knows the bass! Sonic Weapons is a perfect collection of digital ragga,
post-jungle tracks and big riddims with a really distinctive and personal
approach. It's heavy, bouncy and perfect party music. I play his tracks
often in my DJ sets!
- Ghislain Poirier
Bringing out the big guns... 'Sonic Weapons' is a rush. 4.5 Stars
- Remix Magazine
'Sonic Weapons' is not your everyday album. And
that's all for
the good. 4 Stars.
- Time Out New York
This is about as proper as it gets. Throughout, C showcases his seemingly
effortless abilty... Hard to imagine a summer throwdown without this
little beaut. Verdict: C gets an A
- Weekly Dig
"This [July] saw the long-awaited release
of DJ C's first full-length album, the formidably enjoyable 'Sonic Weapons'."
- XLR8R
Like New England weather, the debut from Boston's own DJ C changes gears
without rhyme or reason. Having remixed songs by M.I.A., the mash-up
artist works his magic on a set that ping-pongs from hip-hop to dub to
bhangra to rock.
- Boston Globe
Starkey; NC-17
EP - Dead Homies, U.S.A. (Double 12-inch Vinyl)
Brilliant doublepack from Starkey here, featuring
3 new tracks alongside remixes from Drop the Lime, DJ C, Atki2, Dev79
and Murderbot - all pressed up on extremely loud double vinyl.
"The
ever-esoteric Community Library label returns with what must be their
most sellable pairing with this, the second transmission from DJ
C and Zulu to date. This rough, rugged 10" rams
the dance with the irrepressible boshment killer 'body work'. DJ C has
really found his niche here, working up a grinding riddim grunting
with gyrating pleasure and sure to cause carnage if dropped at
the right moment on the right system. The "Version" on
the flipside will come in handy for those of you who prefer to
walk on the instrumental darkside - splintered dubstep with a
dancehall vibe not a million miles removed from The Bug's signature
"
This 12-inch features some tracks from the vault and a few
new joints. On the A side we have Who Wah
Seek Yo; the
infamous, until now unreleased bluegrass-core tune, with it's killer
banjo licks. Following that is LXC's remix of the same tune, taking
crystal clean drum & bass
and giving the hillbilly treatment. On the B side Come
Back Version is another track from
the DJ C vaults, this time cutting up jungle beats with large doses
of reggae and dancehall thrown in for good measure. Gi
Mi Di Break is a short DJ tool-like track and It
Gets Worse is a bass-heavy downtempo number, delving into the
murky dubstep genre, and features the world-renowned thereminist Pamelia
Kurstin.
remix, from Massachusetts' DJ C, evocative of the beat-grinding
madness of Squarepusher or Aphex Twin, gracefully respects the
melody, vocal and funk of the original, giving an experimental
genre a sugar coating for the new, unfamiliar listener." Out
December 11, 2006 on the Rob
Da Bank's UK-baced Sunday
Best label
: You're probably familiar with
the grimey-junglist-crunk-hall and bounce-beats that DJ C's known
for, but somehow in the midst of the maddness there were moments
of calm when he was able to sit down to compose the more chilled
out little goodies that appear here on the Traced
Milk EP.
2006.
"...DJ C hooks up
with his man Zulu for a killer 7" on Community
Library. Taking a bare bones post jungle template with a metronomic
hi-hat allowing the lumpen gabber kick/snare pattern to twist itself
into a highly developed steppers pattern over invisible subhits and
sticky bass. A proper tasty little slice of steppers riddim methodology."
- Boomkat. 2006.
On the A-side is the politically charged Ransom
The Senator,
featuring lyrics and vocals by Zulu, and a dub / instrumental
version of the same track. The B side features the "highly
addictive and extremely bouncy" Nuttin Attall. 2006.
DJ C and id606 serve up some rankin' riddims for Jonny P's anti-bleaching
anthem "Seaga Face and P.J. Body." Kid606's mix is a slinky funkstep
dancehall stomper with clean vocals and a grindin bassline. DJ C comes with
a timely but original floor-stomping reggaeton-influenced riddim. Both instrumental
versions appear here as well. 2006.

C continues to spread his fiercely eclectic gospel of crunkment, mashstep,
ragga-bounce, and grime-hall across the land. He's been pumping out a series
of records on U.S., U.K., and Japanese labels including a remix of M.I.A.'s U.R.A.Q.T. for
her Galang
05 single on XL

Library, and his own Mashit imprint;
sharing the groves in those slabs of vinyl with the likes of Sinden, Drop
The Lime, Ghislain
Poirier, The
Bug, Kid606, Serj
Tankian and many more. Back in Oct. '04 legendary BBC Radio 1 host John Peel
chose Mashit as a "label
of the month" and featured a DJ
C mix of Mashit tracks. Since then his tunes have continued to evolve into
ever-more devastating dance-floor monsters.
“[The album is] a heavy slap of blazing ragga bashment - Zulu’s Panamanian
lyrical flow is very much to the fore, with the eagle-eared amongst us spotting
both some new DJ C rhythms and a couple of gems unearthed from the vaults and
given a shiny new rub. It’s fast, mean and easy, and a guaranteed fire-starter
- throw in remixes from Ghislain Poirier and Chrissy Murderbot and it’s an
undeniably solid package.”
- Fat Planet
31-track, 1-hour continuos DJ C mix of Zulu’s vocals backed by hype party tracks from producers the world over. Guest vocal appearances by Aceyalone, Jah Orah, and Onili, round out the productions by artists like Ghislain Poirier, David Last, Sabbo, and many others.
