FlüssigesDNB/LiquidDrum'n'Bass

Following on from his massive Ram debut single ‘Moonwalker / Samurai’ last year, Wilkinson again delivers the goods. 'Every Time' is a funk fuelled, soul driven juggernaut of a track. Blending an infectious soulful bassline, addictive beats and the amazing vocal hook courtesy of Marcus Begg. Wilkinson has created an uplifting monster of a track that is destined to be a worldwide summer  anthem. 

On the flip 'Overdose' takes the vibe darker and deeper. The intro builds with an array of sci-fi rising pads and melodic soundscapes and a drop that hits like a tonne of bricks! The entire track carries you along on a modulating journey that can be enjoyed on your ipod or at bass' natural home...  the dance floor! 

Wilkinson’s production skills are showcased to the max on this release and it is no surprise he's got the world of bass-led music looking at him right now.

Document One – Run the Block / Small Steps

It hasn't taken long for Document One to define their own niche among the Technique Recordings roster. Brimming with multi-genre experience, this team has come well-equipped with a fresh and clean production style, overt musicality and uncompromising levels of funk. This release reasserts their commitment to the dancefloor while showing off yet more colours from their palette.

“Run the Block” takes the tough but smoky sound that Document One has made their own and adds a layer of East Coast hip-hop flavour. The rap-along vocal, that trademark upright and synthetic bass fusion, the popping drums and live-instrument arrangement combine to make this tune a definitive statement of Document One's musical heritage. And of course, that means it has that jazzfunk dancefloor energy in abundance.

Then “Small Steps” flips the script, darkening things up in a way you might not be expecting from these guys. The intro is the sound of approaching menace, as military drums call the dance to order. An eerie dialogue sample ratchets up the tension, before a building kick pattern is deployed as a call-to-arms. Then the drop is all about those twisted tendrils of bass, snaking around techstep drums and ghost-in-the-machine stabs. This is what happens when musicality meets aggression on a hell-bent mission to mash up the rave.

So, as well as keeping a firm grip on their low-down dancefloor funking credentials, this release has proved that Document One have a love and talent for all sides of this music. As their track titles declare, they “Run the Block” in the funk neighbourhood and they're making “Small Steps” into the shadowy technoid realm. Now they've shown they can kill the dance in both, it's clear the Document One operation doesn't believe in boundaries.

Document One - Run The Block [Friction Fire BBC Radio 1]

Buy Here: S.P.Y.lnk.to/HospitalMixtapeso

Our artist led Hospital Mixtape series continues! Over the years, S.P.Y has become one of the most well-respected producers and DJs in the game with an astute ear for the crispest, deepest and darkest drum & bass. T

S.P.Y’s sets are consistently crammed with the highest quality selections, which hasn’t gone unnoticed. In 2015 he was chosen to present the prestigious BBC Radio 1 Essential mix for Pete Tong and subsequently joined Annie Mac at her BBC Radio 1 stage at Glastonbury Festival.

A DJ in high demand, S.P.Y has spent the last year touring the globe from USA to Canada, Australia to New Zealand. Last summer he took to the stage at Bestival, Sun & Bass, EDC and Tomorrow World! Yet around his crowded schedule he’s found the time to delve deep in his record box and pull together 31 standout tracks of the moment.

He’s got his hands dirty getting hold of 15 previously unreleased tracks from the likes of Logistics, Dub Elements, Anile, Whiney and Random Movement. His hard work continues with three brand new S.P.Y productions ‘Take Control’, ‘Second Encounter’ and ‘Silent Wave’. He’s given a helping hand to brother Unreal featuring on his fire-fuelled track ‘Enduro’ and a got his head down to produce a Jungle VIP of BCee’s – ‘Back To The Street’.

S.P.Y’s been in hot demand for his remixing skills in the past year with his (Not So Glittery) Sigma remix hitting the BBC Radio 1Xtra playlist for a huge six weeks running. He’s done it again with four fresh reworks of: TC – ‘Rep’ ft Jakes, London Elektricity – ‘Why Are We Here?’, Fred V & Grafix – ‘Ultraviolet’ and and Digital – ‘Deadline’. Hidden amidst the track-list is an amen-break laced gem from Med School’s Etherwood, he’s taken on S.P.Y’s epic ‘What The Future Holds’.

This year's edition of the Hospital Mixtape tears out in true S.P.Y fashion, a midnight ride of filthy switch-ups and flawless transitions; one for the warehouse warriors.

Buy or Stream 'Building Better Worlds' here: www.LondonElek.lnk.to/BuildingBetterWorldsso

Following six studio albums of funk-driven loungecore, Hospital Records’ head honcho London Elektricity embarks on the boldest musical adventure of his 30-year career with his seventh long-player ‘Building Better Worlds’.

It began in a Forest Hill cafe in 2017 where London Elektricity adoringly browsed through a series of Benjamin Beech’s photography of perfectly untouched, derelict buildings and towns in Japan, Taiwan and China. “Many of the images show what has been, what could have been and what will be. The duality of beauty and melancholia within appealed to me immensely.” Each track was married to a photo, to join the sights to sounds from each of his tales of ‘Building Better Worlds.’

Leading the voyage is the orchestral masterpiece ‘Final View From The Rooftops’, that’s been 13 years in the making and is the “most unusual piece of D+B” [he’s] ever made”, featuring the incredible operatic talent of Cydnei B. ‘Build A Better World’ is a smooth drum & bass sonnet with the vocals of Hospital family favourite Emer Dineen. “The beauty of this song lies in its simplicity, but also its duality. I'll leave you to work out what the lyrics are really about… They are some of the darkest lyrics I've come across in years.”

Another special moment is the feature of London Elektricity’s youngest son, The Secretary-General. The talented nine-year-old takes no ‘Time To Think’ as he flawlessly flows through Inja’s lyrics with the ever-vibrant MC following suit, bringing the track full-circle across generations.

London Elektricity is the mastermind behind classic Hospital albums such as ‘Pull The Plug’, ‘Syncopated City’, ‘Are We There Yet?’, and ‘Yikes’. His latest body of work delves into uncharted depths for a very personal and expressive collection of tracks where drum & bass and live instrumentation meet. London Elektricity can be found showcasing this latest chapter with tours in China, Japan, the UK and Europe throughout 2019.

‘Building Better Worlds’ is available as a special limited edition, 36-page lyric-book complete with an in-depth narrative for each track and a 3 x clear vinyl, on sale exclusively from the Hospital Shop.

London Elektricity - Well That's A Switch

Early Bird

Following recent D&B weapons including 1000 Days with Benny L and Lockdown with A Plus, DJ, producer and BBC Radio 1 presenter René LaVice now welcomes D&B pioneer Danny Byrd to his Device label for new collaboration Boomshaka. 

 

Built with a rather special gig in mind and then road-tested initially when the pair played back to back at the enormous EDC event in Las Vegas last year, this one was tweaked across the following months and is now ready for full release. 

 

Having amassed a loyal fanbase from all corners of the globe, René LaVice is a true D&B heavyweight. His innovative releases include the likes of Headlock and The Calling ft. Ivy Mairi whilst officially remixing for a broad spectrum of artists including Grace Carter, Diplo, DJ Fresh, Craig David and The Prodigy. 

 

Meanwhile, Danny Byrd’s endless accolades span two decades, initially being picked up by Hospital Records and remaining at the forefront of the scene ever since. 

 

Emerging from underground realms with a signature sound that combines elements of house, hip hop, rave and R&B, Danny Byrd soon dominated crossover territory when Sweet Harmony became a particular favourite on BBC Radio 1 earning Danny a wider following and international recognition. 

 

Now set to tear up the industry once more alongside René LaVice, the pair deliver Boomshaka marking the ultimate collaboration. Pairing energetic drum patterns with explosive synths and a captivating top line, Boomshaka is destined to infiltrate speakers globally.
