Rumours are circulating this morning that boutique label Trouble & Bass is no more. The Brooklyn-based label was founded in 2007 by Drop the Lime, who quickly recruited AC Slater alongside the likes of Star Eyes and The Captain to form a formidable bass-focused collective.
But five years down the track, it seems Trouble & Bass’ time may be through. Talk of the label closing shop began spreading this morning, when Fact Mag reported that the T&B website had been replaced with an image of a T&B tombstone. AC Slater then linked to the story on Facebook, while fellow label-mates Drop the Lime and Star Eyes both posted the tombstone picture to their own Facebook pages, respectively captioning the image “time will tell” and “dead”.
