About the Album:

Two years in the making, the 12 tracks on Coup D'Yah unleash the devastating bass-weighted sound which has become the recognized trademark of the crew's eponymous NYC club night and its blazing live sets. Coup spans a broad spectrum, from the dub-wise depths to dancefloor crushing bangers.

SS has carved a unique global footprint, leading with heavy ragga inflection, thick beats, wide basslines, and live organic instrumentation ranging from the drums and wind instruments of India to the marching horns of New Orleans. The album showcases the signature vocal talents of Zulu (Ghislain Poirier, DJ C), MC Coppa (Al Haca, Stereotyp) Napoleon Solo (Ming & FS), and Sub Swara's own rising star Juakali (Sub Swara, Kush Arora, Pinch, D1 and more).

What People are Saying:

' A Masterful piece of work. Sub Swara deals with the most fascinating melt of sound - beats and bass laced with the elemental voice of Juakali...pure heaven...The Sub Swara mix was devastating - contender for mix of the year on the BBC Radio 1 show for real.' - Maryanne Hobbs, BBC Radio 1

'Sub Swara manages to transfer the eclectic sounds of their New York club night to tape, bleeding and blending dubstep, ragga, dub, global elements and straight up dance music in a flawless manner that's always fresh, never stale. Their ability to fuse the dark with the subtle and danceable with the complex is a marvel' - Kid Kameleon, XLR8R Magazine

'If you're looking for one entry track into this sound, look out for Koli Stance, a masterclass in swirling subcontinental tablas and warping dubstep bass' - Blackdown, Pitchfork Media
