It's a special occasion at Architecture when one of the labels core artists returns to the fold with new music.  The Original Dreadlock Warrior, 4 Horsemen Chief, and legendary DJ - The Grim Reaper: Loxy.   Undisputedly respected across the D&B scene as one of the most stand alone, ground breaking  DJ's, Loxy's reputation  as a key taste maker and champion of new sounds and artists is recognized worldwide.  His pedigree as a producer is well documented as well, his "Rufige" sound influencing  a legion of artist's under him.  Here Loxy returns to right hand man Ink's imprint with four cuts of trademark warrior dub, forward leaning Drum & Bass.

"White Lotus" intro's with Samurai battle drums,  pouring rain, sword sweeps and Japanese wood winds creating an immersive sonic image of the Shogun period.  A Brief silence sets up the massive natty  bass line, while choice jungle breaks swap in and out over the main tribal drum bed.  Classic Loxy!
Title track "The Author" see's Loxy teaming up with fellow Hardware and Exit  alum Genotype to take matters into deep, low slung territory.  Hypnotic kick drums, eerie sounds, dub effects and a vicious, gurgling bass line combine to icy, spine tingling effect.
on "Righteous Path" Loxy and Genotype build sublime arpeggio skanks, tribal percussion, tape delay vocals and a vintage sounding Sly & Robbie bass line with marching woodblocks and selector effects creating another stellar piece of 170 bpm future Dubwise to add to Loxy's long standing catalog of similarly influenced productions.

"Cold Crush" features Loxy and Genotype bringing Mortem into the studio with them for some early morning, refresher dubwise.  Utilizing a steppers drum bed and system crushing low end growl, replete with reverberated rim shots, cowbells and uplifting atmospherics and melody.  An expertly crafted piece of Speed Era Jungle referenced with a distinctively current approach.
With this EP, Loxy's continues to press forward with his brand of Drum & Bass, encompassing core elements of Jungle but always with a progressive future edge, exactly the reason why he remains one of the most consistently fresh and exciting DJ's and Producers in the genre year after year.

INK : The story so far......

An architect first visualizes then realises, making something out of nothing, making sure that not only the object itself shines but also the space around it. The sound is moulding, shaping and morphing at the hands of Dj Ink... 

The year is 1990 and a young Dj Ink has solidified his love for the culture known as hip hop- as the years move on so does UK street music, there are new genres forming and Ink begins to hear what is familiar to him, but there is a new twist-It is the UK passing by the USA, with a huge dose of African and Jamaican influence, This is music to a budding Dj Ink's ears, he naturally becomes involved and it doesn’t take too long before he begins to make his mark. 

First begins the Pirate radio circuit. Working hard at his craft and allowing the followers to get familiar with the roll, steadily bookings began to build up and soon it would be time for Ink to become associated with three names that changed the landscape of British electronic music-Basement Records, and slightly later Metalheadz and Renegade Hardware. Ink would go onto form his own imprint- Architecture Recordings, releasing anthems from himself and various crew members, bringing through new talent and the cream of the heavy hitters within drum n bass. If you're familiar with drum n bass/jungle you’ll know instantly the weight these labels carry, and if you're not by just scratching the surface you’ll become aware of the impact they have had. Renegade Hardware & Metalheadz are two commitments Dj Ink has upheld to this day, through thick and thin, engraved in the wall of time.

Essential work includes 'The 50th (Blueprint)' (1st Drum and Bass/Jungle tune selected live by a dj (LTJ Bukem) on BBC Radio 1 essential DnB show ever!) and "Altitude" on Basement Records, ‘Feel da heat’ taken from the LP ‘Can u draw sound?’ on Architecture Recordings, ‘Kaos Theory EP’ on Renegade Hardware, ‘Shine’ on Metalheadz, and the now infamous posse cut ‘Instinct’ also on Architecture, this is just a small fraction by Ink that has made waves. 

The now famous "Horsemen" project was a concept headed up by Ink, Loxy, Dylan & Keaton. Originally formed due to the affinities amongst the original four, the crew went onto bring together producers from all over the globe under the "Horsemen" banner- beat makers who have been inspired by the foundations laid down by The Four Horsemen went on to receive acclaim from critics and music buyers alike.

Ink has a number of long players under his belt, to select a few In chronological order these are - Incision and Can You Draw Sound for Architecture Recordings, Hard Soul w/ Perpetuum for Colours Audio and: The Last Scroll for Renegade Hardware. In more recent events we have "The Tree & The Wind" by INK & SIN also on Architecture Recordings.  With these credits to his name it is fair to say INK continues to make his mark on DnB.
