To mark the passing of one of the finest UK labels in recent years, Bristol imprint Skull Disco have announced details of their forthcoming swansong compilation ‘Soundboy’s Gravestone Gets Desecrated By Vandals’.

Acting mainly as an outlet for the works of Shackleton and Appleblim, the label has, without question, pushed the sonic envelope further than most in the last few years, brazenly blurring the boundaries between the worlds of dubstep, techno and beyond.

CD1 of their round-up recalls releases SKULL006 to SKULL010 with the exception of Ricardo Villalobos’ groundbreaking remix of Shakleton’s ‘Blood On My Hands’ which appeared on the label’s first compilation ‘Soundboy Punishments’.

CD2 meanwhile concentrates purely on remixes (released or otherwise) and features the heavy-hitting T++ re-rub of Shackleton’s ‘Death Is Not Final’ alongside new efforts from Rupture, Geiom, Badawi and Bass Clef.

It’s an impressive final farewell.
