LSB - Solstice

An early DnB collab between Optical and Dom & Roland on the legendary Moving Shadow imprint. 1997. This is a special dubplate VIP. As you can probably hear it was arranged by hand live from a bunch of loops...sometimes I used to create a track like this instead of a fixed arrangement to see which way it should flow in the final track...quick draw desk mutes and live eq sweeps...another era...

4 Jungle Records proudly presents a powerful new release straight from Colombia: Highlevel and Mindhaze team up for the explosive single "Fight / Soundsystem Blood", a showcase of the raw excellence of Colombian Drum and Bass.

The first track, "Fight", delivers an intense ride — razor-sharp drums, heavy basslines, and an atmosphere built for tearing up the dancefloor. The production blends the gritty roots of classic jungle with a distinct Latin flavor, pushing boundaries while staying true to the underground.

"Soundsystem Blood" pays homage to the culture and legacy of sound system movements. With bold vocal samples, deep low-end pressure, and a rhythm that hits hard, this track honors the global influence of bass culture — filtered through the vibrant, rebellious spirit of Colombia.

Together, these tracks cement Highlevel and Mindhaze as key voices in Latin America's growing DnB movement. And once again, 4 Jungle Records proves its commitment to elevating the sound of the region to the world stage.

One of the most exciting D&B production outfits to emerge in recent times, this is just the tip of the iceberg, so expect to see and hear a lot more of the Beat Merchants over the next 12 months!

"Compilations can be easily forgotten, but I want this one to stand the test of time and be looked back in time as something special. It's a present from me to everyone. Thanks for being with us, here you go, I hope you love it." Bryan Gee - February 2020



From 'V Classic' to 'Planet V' and beyond, the V Recordings camp have been scene leaders in creating era-defining, zeitgeist-capturing compilations. And, following on from the retrospective 'Foundation' project, it's now time for another chapter in the story - 'Future'

Bryan Gee, widely known as one of the most influential selectors and A&R men in the business, has taken his time to compile and curate something that's more than just another album. This is Bryan's personal vision of what's to come, not only for the V brand, but for Drum & Bass music as a whole.
Never swayed by fashions, fads and sub-genre divisions, Bryan and Jumpin Jack Frost's family of labels have been a benchmark for quality from time immemorial. So, when they call this album 'Future', that comes with authority.

For V Recordings, the future is as much about building on what's come before as it is about brand new innovations. So, we see contemporary masters like Benny L, Voltage and L-Side pay homage to the classics with remixes of Roni Size, Ray Keith, Krust and Dillinja. Artificial Intelligence go back in on their anthem 'Uprising' to give it a cutting-edge reconfiguration, and Dr Meaker's 'Fighter' gets the S.P.Y treatment.

Then there are the 2020 visions of artists from across the spectrum of Drum & Bass music. The likes of Alibi, Paul T & Edward Oberon, Drumsound & Bassline Smith, DJ Marky & Dirtbag, Bladerunner, Zero T, Command Strange, Carlito & Addiction, Jonny L & Need for Mirrors deliver darkness and light, savagery and euphoria, musicality and hype in equal measure. And that's just scratching the surface.

The future that this album sets out before us is one where pigeon-holes and categories are unimportant. Certified legends rub shoulders with breakthrough artists. Heavyweight dancefloor bangers co-exist with soulfully melodic flavours. This music is unified, not by style or by marketability, but purely by the vibe. If that's what a V Recordings future looks like, we can relax. The scene is in safe hands.
