Hospital Records heavyweight and all-round drum & bass champion Logistics is back with a fresh six-track EP that’s home to an array of sonic selections. Following his most recent EP series and remixes with the likes of salute, Fred V and DRS & Dynamite, his latest ‘Love Letters’ EP sees him delve back into the classic Hospital Records sound that he is so widely loved for, with a 2022 twist.

EP title-track ‘Love Letters’ brings out Logistics’ soulful side as lo-fi inspired chimes and a new-wave R&B style vocal cut entices you into a world of soothing sonics, juxtaposed by an electrifyingly resonant bassline.

‘Vega’ injects pure euphoria as the classic sounds of Logistics step up to the forefront. Rolling drums, organ-style synths and uplifting vocals see the decades of Logistics’ experience effortlessly translate into yet another drum & bass anthem.

‘Continuation’ steps down in tempo, with skippy drum beats, and a solemn feel throughout. Further showcasing his versatile taste and production style, this is everything you’d expect and more from a 130 BPM Logistics cut.

Sincere liquid drum & bass ballad ‘Secret Satellite’ (feat. Zoë Phillips), opens with emotive pianos and heartfelt vocal toplines which pave their way towards splashy amens and a beautifully crafted bassline. This is Logistics at his finest...

‘Nightingale’ (feat. Frank H Carter III) sees another switch up in style with half-time drum patterns and clear influence from the realms of electronica and techno. Expect elevating vocals and warming bass glides as Logistics continues to musically leave no stone unturned.

Stepping the pace back up for the final track of the EP, ‘Pleasure’ is a certified dancefloor damager home to drums packed with punch, throbbing bass hits and addictive synth lines. Taking you down an avenue into the more classic sounds of Logistics with a new age twist, this one is something special.

Without a doubt one of the most prolific artists within drum & bass, Logistics is the name behind dance music anthems such as ‘Together’, ‘Waveforms’, ‘Wanderlust’, and ‘Transporter’ to name a few. He’s received endless support from airwave tastemakers including Annie Mac, Rene LaVice and Mary Anne Hobbs. Since signing exclusively to Hospital Records in 2004, the development of his sound and style has been a journey encompassed by drum & bass lovers worldwide as he continues to elevate himself into a league of legendary status.

Love Letters

Out Now!

Logistics - Love Letters

Musical alchemist Jimi Needles and soul sensation Hannah Williams are set to release their funky, latin-infused, drum and bass cover of “Shackles” by Mary Mary on the 4th March via Swing and Bass. Jimi and Hannah's genre-melding spin on the 90’s R&B classic fuses modern, chunky dnb beats, latin rhythms, live instrumentation and a game-changing, soulful vocal from Hannah that takes the original to an entirely different place. Jimi’s aim as an artist is to present music that people know and love in a new and interesting way, blowing their minds, and making them dance. His “Shackles” cover certainly brings these vibes. Turntablist and producer Jimi Needles is best known for his intricate, genre-spanning, party mixtapes, deck-defying festival sets and on-point productions. His musical origins are rooted in hip hop, soul, and funk, but when performing live, Jimi brings to the turntables a fusion of pin-point scratching over breaks & bass music. He leaves virtually no genre untouched to create the ultimate party soundtrack. The same can be said for his productions, with an array of varied bootlegs and original productions on labels such as Beating Heart, Jungle Strikes and now Swing and Bass. Jimi also performs shows with his live backing band, The Cosmic Orchestra, who played most of the instruments in the final cut of the new single. This will be Jimi’s second release on Swing & Bass, riding on the buzz of “Missing Sombrero”, an original, high-energy, latin-funk, drum and bass banger in a similar vein, bringing an uplifting horn section and distinctive vinyl scratch lead. Swing and Bass as a label and event brand prides itself in combining soulful vintage vibes with clean modern production and filthy basslines, reworking classics for the modern dance floor. It’s the perfect home for Jimi’s brand of funky party music. Soul sensation Hannah Williams is a vocal powerhouse who has garnered critical acclaim with her band Hannah Williams and the Affirmations, and as a solo artist.
The band were catapulted into a string of successes after the title track from their debut album was sampled by JAY-Z on his chart-topping single “4.44”. This gave them global recognition, bolstering their soul scene fanbase with additional support from the RnB and Hip-Hop community, including Tyler the Creator and Will.I.Am.
“You are in the club now” - Will.I.Am
This momentum has continued with worldwide touring, tracks from their second album used multiple times on TV, by Virgin Hotels, Apple TV and more. Plus, a third album is on its way.
Success in Hannah’s solo career has also followed suit; she recently made the finals in the TV show: The Voice UK, where she was mentored by Sir Tom Jones.
Reuniting on this track (Jimi used to play drums for Hannah nearly 10 years ago!), Jimi and Hannah felt that the lyrics of the original were the perfect way to capture the current global psyche and create a cathartic catalyst that gets people dancing.
“We thought the vocal resonated with the current state of the pandemic world” -
Jimi Needles

Jimi Needles & Hannah Williams - Shackles

After years of unforgettable releases on the mighty Hospital Records, Cambridge-raised producer Hugh Hardie, having recently made the move over to Soulvent Records, prepares to deliver his third and arguably most exciting album to date in 'Juicebox'. With the tone set by the first two singles ‘Blush’ featuring Zara Kershaw and ‘Face Off’ with PAV4N of Foreign Beggars, 'Juicebox' highlights the remarkable extent of Hugh's musical prowess and boasts a wealth of rich collaborations, including the likes of Footsie, Degs, Killa P and more. 
	Album opener ‘RWTS’ sees Hugh team up with label-mates In:Most and the unmistakable vocal talents of Kojo. The result is a sultry, techy liquid roller, brought together with Kojo’s effortless tone and palpable emotion. On ‘Test This’ Hugh allies with one half of Newham Generals, aka Grime legend Footsie - whose flawless vocal delivery transforms this hard-hitting roller into a dance-floor weapon. Given this is the MC’s first 170-bpm release, we’re left with a wry smile at the prospect of further collaborations in this vein. ‘Suede’ exhibits Hugh’s instantly recognisable R’n’B flavoured keys, vocal processing and shuffly drum patterns. Complete with bounding sub-bass and intricate synth processing, this deep liquid number welcomes us into the finer side of soulful drum & bass. Meanwhile, the album’s namesake ‘Juicebox’ is a playground of powerful jungle breaks, energized synth stabs and ferocious basses. 
Other notable cuts from the record include ‘Show No Love’, loaded with glistening jazz guitars and glowing vocals courtesy of Zhou. ‘Flip Switch’, once again proving Hugh to be far from a one-genre pony, effortlessly delivers UK Funky flavours with the help of a legendary mic-man, South London’s own Killa P. Midpoint track ‘Sophie (feat. Wayward)’, another alternative bpm venture, is veritably dripping with emotion with its expressive drum programming, alluring vocal chops and a chord progression that tugs on the heart strings. A true lesson in pace. ‘Glow (feat. Degs & Josh Kye)’ is an upbeat, soaring number complete with romantic pianos and an unshakeable sense of positivity. The interplay between the glossy vocals of Josh Kye and Degs is further complemented by a gospel choir introduced towards the track’s end. The penultimate track ‘Andrew’s Dream’ exhibits the sort of celestial, ethereal soundscape that the title might suggest. Ascending keys and heartfelt pads are the order of the day, backed by warm sub-bass and splashy drums.
	Marking his first studio album on Soulvent, and third collectively, Hugh Hardie displays an ever-widening colour palette in ‘Juicebox’ alongside a comprehensive understanding of the tenets that define the various sub-genres across dance music. The 13-track aural playground is available from Friday the 28th of July, and we promise you, the juice is more than worth the squeeze!

Seasoned party rockers Father Funk & Bear Twists deliver their first EP under their new alias Tuxedo Junction - serving up a stiff cocktail of Swing, Jazz and Bass, tailor made for the dancefloor.

“Swing, Shaken Not Stirred” does just what it says on the tin, shaking up the Electro Swing sound by combining elements of Electro, Glitch Hop, Drum & Bass and Garage with the sultry sounds of Swing and Jazz.

Featuring collaborations with swing veterans C@ in the H@ and Captain Flatcap, and already receiving support from heavyweights such as Stickybuds, Defunk and WBBL, Tuxedo Junctions debut EP is set to cause quite the stir (or should I say shake) this summer.

Digging the swing vibes, good production and fat bass, nice job guys.
- Stickybuds

Super fresh and very interesting, banging!
- Basement Freaks

Every other swing producer should be shaking in their tiny swing pants after hearing tuxedo junction. Next level on every level
- WBBL

Bumpin party music with that sweet tang of swing and jazz music. Fun for all kinds of music lovers. Love the variety of beats!
- Defunk

Unearthing Father Funk’s new EP is like discovering the missing link between the festival dance floor of today and the smokey late night jazz clubs of yesteryear. Niiiice!

Buy or stream 'Med School: Graduation' here: https://HospitalRecords.lnk.to/MSGraduationso

After thirteen years and over ninety releases, Med School has stacked the chairs and closed its doors. As a final farewell to the label, the ‘Med School: Graduation’ compilation celebrates the life of Hospital Records’ once sister label, as well as the musicians and culture that defined it, with 23 brand new tracks from label stalwarts such as Bop, Keeno, Etherwood and Whiney as well as the new blood that was always so important to the label’s experimental output.

In Med School fashion, the album brings together a myriad of drum & bass stylings and beyond. From the microfunk movements of Bop to Illexandra’s warped emergency warnings, Lakeway’s upfront grime beats to the unique electronic musings of Frederic Robinson, A.Fruit and Kimyan Law.

Representing the serene side of Med School is Etherwood’s ‘Nowhere To Go But Everywhere’, alongside beautiful contributions from Keeno, Natus and Polaris. The tribal infusions of Royalston’s stepper ‘Mark’s Shibari Groove’ and Lung’s techno-fused rabbit hole ‘Stop Crying’ switch up the pace to reflect the breadth of Med School’s outputs. The compilation also calls back to the very beginnings of the label with a special VIP treatment of S.P.Y’s first release in the Hospital camp, MEDIC1 ‘Black Flag’.

Whiney not only brings in his deep new stepper ‘Close To You’ but is also the man behind the continuous mix on the album, seamlessly bringing together all 23 tracks for one final salute to Med School Music.

“ Medschool was an amazing label for taking risks, from Syntax to The Erised and everything in between… Without risks and new talent we cannot grow. Without you believing in our risks and new talent we are nothing.” - London Elektricity
