Possibly the most celebrated dubplate of 2012, Commodo's masterful remix of Mala's dancefloor classic 'Miracles' is sinister, cunning, and confident. Paced gracefully, its gait is fluid and precise, fueled by a monstrous low-end and unrelenting percussion. Most importantly, it is now released.
Once a secret weapon for a chosen few artists, Commodo's almost mythical remix will now be found in vinyl crates the world over. It is a bizarre moment in dubplate culture to be sure; a bittersweet feeling for many. There is something truly magical for those fortunate enough to have heard it at a dance before its release-- the feeling that one is being let in on some incredible secret that only those in attendance will ever hear. It is not totally unfounded to claim that a full-run release on Mala's Deep Medi label will cheapen this unique experience. But then again, countless followers might have otherwise not had the experience at all.
