Our friends at Olde English Spelling Bee are set to release Dagger Paths, the debut full-length from Wirral, UK drone-step shaman Forest Swords, on March 1. As a preview, the label sent over this mesmerizing exclusive mixtape put together by Forest Swords, featuring deep, dank jams from Pariah, Ducktails, Burial, Madlib, Arch M, Jeru, King Tubby, and a few other surprises, plus some dubbed-out psychedelic new remixes and original material from Forest Swords himself. Download via mediafire below (includes full tracklist and cover art). Highly recommended:

Can't wait…
Skipped directly to the Burial/Four Tet rework, massive!
amazing mix on first listen. The reworks are dope. Is this Dagger Paths record an EP or full length (album)? Bands myspace says EP.
it's only 6 songs, but the label tells me it's LP-length.
Just wondering…
is it reliable to buy on this website ? Just asking since it's look amateurish (not saying that in a bad way though :) ). Is there any artworks coming with the cd's for instance ?
Otherwise, have you listened to it (the Dagger Paths LP) ? or when you do get the chance, could you tell us your feeling ?
It seems pretty good ! :)
Thanks! and nice work on gorillavsbear !
yes, it's safe, OESB is a reputable label that has released some great stuff (ducktails and jules lynch, to name a couple). i haven't heard the whole LP yet, just the excerpts on the mix, and Miarches/Glory Gongs, which are both great.
all right ! Thanks for the answer…
You give us your opinion once you got the chance to listen to the whole LP ?
amateur is the new pro. the OESB store works fine and all orders ship promptly.
this is a pre-order — these records will ship beginning on March 1st — there will be no delays on this as they have already been pressed and packaged.
also – it's NOT a cd. it will be a vinyl l.p. — and it features carefully remastered versions of four songs that were previously available on cassette — along with two brand new tracks.. & while it's being called an "e.p." it is 34 minutes long so it's certainly not a single..
AND all records will come with a download coupon so you will also receive high-quality mp3's of the music.
this is the freshest dank on the block.
sorry to bother you, i am late on the whole forest swords awesomeness and would really love to hear the mixtape. any chance you have it lying around? links are down. -> picaso2000 (at) gmx (dot) at
Excellent. I like it.
Thanks man! This stuff was really, really good
what's the unlisted track in between "Liars – You, Drum" and "King Tubby – Dub of Righteousness?"
Atlas Sound – Activation
Yeah the unlisted song is amazing who is that?
Missed this download and it’s down off MediaFire now. Anyway someone could send it to me, or it could be reuploaded to MediaFire?
yeah. can you re-up it for me as well? sorry I missed this
I really want it too.
Anyone have the tracklist? I accidentally deleted it when cleaning (electronic) house.
