SPENTSHELL has quickly become the go-to label for Grime, and quite rightly so as the founder Flowdan is one of the original and founding fathers of the genre. Their second release is GHSTLY XXVII’s, GUERRILLA TACTICS EP and the KILL CONFIRMED video via GRM Daily, which marked the EP’s launch

With a minefield of platforms, outlets, and social media it is difficult to know where to look to find quality artists of any music genre without having to sift through a lot of mediocre stuff in between. Spentshell is quickly stepping up as the go-to label to discover uncompromised, specially selected grime and by the time the decision has been made to release a project, they’ve already filtered out the top talent, making the music a rewarding find for the truest grime lover.

After the recent debut release of PK’s (YGG) ‘Bad Ombre’ EP on the label, they are straight back in with their second release, GHSTLY XXVII’s ‘Guerrilla Tactics‘ EP. The young emcee came to the attention of Spentshell’s founder, Flowdan via his unstoppable and unrestrained hunger for spitting, clashing and the roots of grime culture that he presented in features across Radar Radio, Mode FM, Flex FM, Pyro and Rinse FM.

Released on the 16th March, the 4 track EP ricochets through the darker, murky edge of grime, making it a raw, unapologetic and gritty serving. GHSTLY XXVII stands out as a talent beyond his years, clearly growing up on a staple diet of Channel U and in-depth studies of grime classics shared via Bluetooth on the back of buses, making him lyrically seasoned and sharp. Productions run through from Audioslugs, Flowdan, J Beats & Kid D whilst features include a cross-section of celebrated talent from both ends of the grime spectrum, old and new, including PK & Riko on the shellers ‘Start It’. The string-led, ad-lib laden, screwface inducing ‘Kill Confirmed’ was the first record to touch down with DJ Charlie Sloth snatching it up for his premiere feature on BBC Radio 1Xtra, setting a strong precedent from the get-go on this serious release.

Having developed Spentshell to be the go-to grime music label, staying authentic to the essence of grime while developing new talent and nurturing it alongside more established grime artists, Flowdan is hitting the mark and his years of experience are being crafted into a blueprint for Spentshells bright future.
