The Bug

Cant Take This No More / Rise Up The Bug

Limited 7” on neon yellow vinyl ! The Bug is returning. After dropping the hugely successful London Zoo album in 2008 ("Hovers immaculate between beauty and fear" - The Wire) he's returning with a Roland TB-303 in hand, and an 808 under his arm, detonating a new genre and sub-label: Acid Ragga. First up is "Can't Take This No More" which finds the legendary Daddy Freddy slowed down to a menacing crawl, on a countdown to self destruction. The flip features Inga Copeland (Hype Williams) on "Rise Up", sounding like Donna Summer on smack, crooning inna deeper shade of blue. The debut Acid Ragga release will be swiftly followed by single 2, "Ganja Baby" feat. Daddy Freddy, which is a body breaking, robo-raggamuffin, weed anthem (Think "Witness the Fitness" remixed by Richie Hawtin in cold crush mode.) Watch for a continuing series of Acid Ragga singles throughout the year, leading up to the next Bug album proper Angels & Devils.
