It’s time for some no nonsense drum & bass on MTA Records, courtesy of Mob Tactics with ‘The Answer’ EP. The duo seem to be a name on people’s lips more and more of late. Already renowned for their own inimitable style of techy – yet very funky, dance-floor orientated drum & bass, the duo appear to be going from strength-to-strength with each release, and ‘The Answer’ EP takes them in to a musical world which they have not yet explored.

‘The Answer’ EP is set to turn some heads, with the tracks already firm staples in the sets of Chase & Status, Andy C & Friction to name but a few, and the demand for them on the DJ circuit is rapidly gaining momentum. ‘The Answer’ EP will  be released as a Beatport exclusive 28th July.

Bensley – A name which has remained a talking point across the genre since the announcement of his exclusive signing to Ram Records. Heralding from the city of Toronto, known for being a hotbed for the drum & bass genre, Bensley has stood as an anomaly.

In its 20 year plus history, never before has the RAM imprint created a journey as unique as Bensley’s. If you scour the internet, you won’t find one single release, an upload or even any previous history on the producer. Yet all it took was a one single demo to attract the attention of the acclaimed electronic music label. The RAM HQ was instantly enveloped by Bensley’s technically adept and musical personality, with the demos blowing the roof off the Hornchurch office on first listen. 

Bensley ‘let the music do the talking’… Quite literally. On first listen to ‘Fandango’, a precursor for what’s yet to come, you’ll instantly tune in to why he was snapped up so quickly. His innovative composition appeals to even the hardiest of heads – but it also builds a bridge between the commercial and the underground.

Straight away, you can hear the heavily influenced tinkling of his jazz musician grandfather; Bensley is also an accomplished saxophone player, having traveled extensively with his school band. An artist who’s just as inspired by the contemporary sounds of Wilkinson and Loadstar, as much as jazz pioneers Dave Brubeck and Charlie Parker, the depth of his musicality goes deeper than a DAW interface.

Tantrum Desire – Oblivion feat. Solah

There's a storm on the horizon. For those that know what's up in the bass-heavy music scene, the forthcoming Tantrum Desire album, “Diversified”, is one of the most anticipated releases of 2015. You just need to check recent sets and radio shows from heavy-hitters like Friction, DJ Hype and Drumsound & Bassline Smith to see that cuts from the LP are already making their presence felt.

And now here's “Oblivion”, the single that shows just how monumental the Tantrum Desire sound has become.

This track encapsulates multiple sides to that sound. The intro is pure seduction, with a slick rhythm section of bass plucks, laid-back drumming and piano chords under the light and grace of Solah's vocals. As an edge of percussive hardness creeps into her voice, all of a sudden the energy builds and it's clear there's a switch-up coming. Then the drop delivers that to full capacity, cutting through the smoky atmosphere with high-energy synth hits and the type of call and response between bass and mid-range that mark this out as pure Tantrum Desire.

The breakdown gives us yet another facet, as jungle breaks float in and around the piano and vocals to offer gratitude to the old skool. Then there's a second drop to put it all together, showcasing weighty bass, euphoric high-end and a deftly technical approach to delivering the chord changes.

“Oblivion” is Tantrum Desire in concentrated form, a lethal dose of musicianship, ultra-clean production skills, respect for their D&B heritage and dancefloor hype. This is a killer which is immediately going to find its place across raves and airwaves. Check it, and hold tight because the album “Diversified” has a lot more where that came from.

Tantrum Desire - Oblivion Feat Solah [ BBC Radio 1 Friction Exclusive]

UK drum & bass heroes Drumsound & Bassline Smith are back to their brilliant best on future classic ‘Fearless’. The Midlands based trio have spawned numerous hits in recent years, with ‘across the board’ tastemaker support from MistaJam to Annie Mac, and ‘Fearless’ is tipped to be their biggest single yet.

Built on a rock-solid beat and heavy bassline, ‘Fearless’ is an uplifting, high-energy D&B track, taken to the next level by the vocal talents of ‘one to watch’ Stealth - who recently appeared on Roger Sanchez’s new track ‘Remember Me’ (Pete Tong Essential New Tune). Also featured are LCGC (aka London Community Gospel Choir) - who provide stunning the backing vocals on ‘Fearless’. LCGC have famously worked with the Queen of Pop Madonna, and have a busy 2015 schedule ahead, from touring festivals with house legend MK, with further appearances planned at Creamfields, and Defected events.

‘Fearless’ is certain to become an instant fan favourite – look out for full release this September.

The story of Bensley’s rise to fame within the drum & bass community has become infamous. One of the scene’s most prolific to date, the emerging Ram stalwart was pushed into the agenda’s forefront without any prior music being available to stream online. Having been signed to the revered imprint based on a few mysterious demos, the LP that followed demonstrated the thought process behind label-head Andy C’s decision.

And next single ‘Tiptoe’ only goes on to solidify Bensley’s position. One set component from the last eighteen months that has created nearly as much hype as his ground breaking first single ‘Fandango’, it again hones in on the artist’s signature production standards. Hollowed drums and building note arpeggios bring you forward on top of a reverberating bassline; quickly cut then propelled forward on pounding subs, clacking percussion filters between carefully composed loops.

Hailed by radio tastemakers Beats1’s Zane Lowe and 1xtra’s Mistajam as one to watch, this next single adds another milestone to his journey. Whether it was on the dancefloor across his European tour last Autumn/Winter, or through personal headphones, Bensley is beginning to dominate playlists globally. ‘Tiptoe’ solidifies why.
