SImple hiphop track multirecorded on Yamaha MT4X cassette recorder last night.

Secrets

Toronto beatsmith Alan Lam’s music making career — one that is  approaching the two decade milestone — is the stuff of legends.  Adopting the pseudonym Stranjah, the Version Recordings founder has built a prolific back catalog of releases highlighted by issuances on heavyweight imprints 31 Records, DSCI4, and seminal Drum & Bass recording label Metalheadz.

When Renegade Hardware headman Clayton Hines announced last June that the following year would be the beloved label’s last, he stated that Hardware would “intend to go out with a bang” with several huge records in the works before the long running outfit was effectively dissolved.  The Reflections LP is one of said huge records, an all-world compilation album featuring a killer VIP of Stranjah‘s drum smasher “Intalus“.

Opening with a decidedly deeper tribal minmalist feel than its original counterpart, the Intalus VIP slowly progresses into familiar territory; twisted synth stabs, nightmarish percussion, punishing drum break choppage, and deep deadly sub bass.

– Joe Crilla

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Renegade Hardware has been a catalyst for Drum and Bass music, by not only representing future sounds of the genre but by keeping mindful in paying respect to its roots. REFLECTIONS is one such project. Giving listeners a walk down that old school feel of DnB, bass heavy, soulful, jungle beats from producers such as Loxy, Stranjah, N-17, Ink, Alix Perez, Aspect and more. Constantly pushing sound, championing new talent and ideas. The album's 11 cuts are a sure bet in that Hardware's signature sound lives on with the labels long standing soldiers and new global conscripts.

Here we are with our 12th vinyl release. We’re really proud of our back catalogue, and even prouder to be able to add more to it. And what better way to expand our portfolio than by inviting yet another exciting artist to join our 12” club. And this artist is Ricky Force – a man who’s seen it all in the more breakbeat-oriented face of drum & bass, pushing his trademark intricate percussion programming since 1999, releasing quality music on labels such as Reinforced, Repertoire, Omni Music, Pinecone Moonshine, DSCI4 or 117 and now finding home with us. Without further ado, here’s Ricky Force and his latest single – a pair of not your usual 170-BPM masterpieces leaning heavier towards roots vibes, jungle, halfstep, and dub (Ricky’s from Dublin, so it makes total sense). “ Ecstasy ” starts with a looped vocal bit that leads the listener on towards a thick bush overgrown with full-bodied kicks, sharp, frantic breaks, and a bassline composed of massively booming bits that are bound to keep you on your toes, especially if you have the chance to enjoy it on some proper sound-system. “ Firehouse Dub ” is, in turn, a solid half-stepper strongly rooted in jungle revivalism. It marches slowly and steadily, unfolding some interesting stories on the way – a series of thickly-arranged broken beats, a pack of blares, some vocal bits here and there… Put together, they create an amazing mixture of classic sounds organized up to modern-day standards with surgical precision only Ricky Force is capable of. A true feast for all those into the less polished and more true-school shades of drum & bass.
