My live set from the latest takeover day on Dub Frequency Radio.
Mostly darker vibes on this one!

Lubi J on Dub Frequency Radio - February 2022

The beat master Echo 1 is back yet again, never easing up with his incredible musical journeys. He gives us 4 more tracks of intricate and irresistable drum and bass that weave their way through space, time, and sound. Driving beats propel each track as washes of blissful sounds tease their way out of the speakers. These tracks are perfect for the dancefloor as well as for home listening as the thundering beats play joyfully with the thrilling atmospheric soundscapes. Echo 1 is proving to be a force to be reckoned with as we eagerly await his next chapter.

OUT NOW: ECHO 1 - THE DREAM MAKER EP (OmniEP266)

DJ Ink’s much heralded Architecture Label continues to remain a brand you can trust for future thinking avant-garde Drum & Bass for going on 25 years. The label has been the launching point for not only Ink and his own productions, but also for a core group of hand picked artists whose discographies have gone on to cement a legacy of their own in the genre such as Konflict and Gremlinz. Ink’s keen ear for innovation and talent continues to bear fruit today with the release of Dutch mainstay Sin’s first major album project after years of DJing and promoting in his home countries scene.
Split into a series of EP’s, Traumas, Lost and Found Chapter One, collects seven ice cold sci fi steppers into one potent salvo of uncontested dancefloor jabs. Sin’s sound is heavily informed by late 90’s golden era aesthetic peppered with heavy doses of Reinforced futurism, Headz Rufige, Krust’s abstraction and Optical’s sound design. A pallet Sin comes by effortlessly, honestly, and organically based off his many years of connection to the music and the culture surrounding it.

Timeless, Unapologetic, Authentic, true to the canon Drum & Bass for the real connoisseurs.

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.
