June: 10 dubstep & grime releases you need to hear this month

DJ Q 'Sonic' (Local Action)

2016-Bit

‘Sonic’ has been popping up in various Q and Local Action sets over the last few months, but the track amounts to a lot more than just sampling classic Megadrive fodder. Brilliantly simple, its skippy flow, furthered by the bonkers Sonic The Hedgehog effects that’ll have you chasing imaginary gold rings , gives it a playful quality – but it still feels firmly rooted in grime’s spectrum. An excursion from his usual output, ‘Sonic’ will undoubtedly go down as one of the year’s memorable slices of club grime. Tip!
