VARIOUS ARTISTS - ‘Audio presents RAMlife Drum & Bass’
RAM RECORDS - RELEASED 22nd February 

Pre-order RAMLife and get Audio -  Foodchain now - http://po.st/AudioRAMLifeiT

2014 stands as a defining moment for the RAM Records imprint. Not only did it announce the pivotal signing of artists like Audio, Teddy Killerz and Bensley but they also oversaw the birth of compilation series RAMLife hosted by Loadstar. Even in its first form, it contained nearly every essential release the last twelve months had to offer. 

But this year, RAMLife is taking you into deeper and murkier dimensions. Having already flexed his production muscle on the ricocheting, four-track ‘Nil by Mouth’ EP, as well as his first visual debut in the music video for ‘Heads Up’, it’s now time for Audio to cut open and expose his musical psyche. 

Including some of the most aggressive, technically adept and prominent artists the genre has to offer, including Bad Company, Optiv & BTK and Noisia to name a few, no stone goes unturned for the album’s entirety. Audio also throws bass-fuelled bullets in the form of exclusives, with explosive VIPs that have yet to be released. 

The brand new cut ‘Foodchain’ from Audio sets a theme which is prevalent throughout all 27 tracks. Uncompromising yet diligently crafted, it leads you into a freight train of musicality which holds you hostage from start to finish. Zipping through to the mechanical composition of Mefjus’ ‘Brainwork’, all the way back to Spor’s heavy-hitting ‘Bullet Time’ remix; this is a no holds barred exploration of the genre’s darker side.  

But what can you expect from the man who garners such an explosive reputation across the club circuit? Audio brings his live personality into the whole album and accompanying mix; one that doesn't let you pause for breath. They're a collection of tracks that'll leave an atomic bomb sized impression inside the community, which further solidifies his reputation as an ever- growing, unstoppable goliath.

Once again demonstrating his high-octane production and unique brand of drum and bass, High Maintenance comes back around to deliver a riveting power liquid ballad.

Let The Light Shine opens with smooth pads that give way to a killer piano line and vocal chops. Relentlessly building up to the conclusion, the tune drops with full force summer vibes.

A Brand New World shows High Maintenance’s darker side while maintaining his signature high-energy sound. Raw filtered reese grooves and ever solidly polished production value make this tune a sure-fire hit as a peak time dance floor killer. 

For all things High Maintenance, keep it locked to AudioPorn Records.

The announcement of the second ever Acts of Mad Men compilation this year has been a hot topic amongst DnB heads since the first single was release with Magnetude’s ‘Friday’. Now, following teases from Halflight, Insomniax, and Blaine Stranger, the fifth taste of this monumental album comes in two parts, both just as loud and proud as their predecessors.

The first side of the single is the highly anticipated Annix remix of InsideInfo & Mefjus’ timeless collaboration ‘Pulsation’. A favourite amongst heads, Konichi & Decimal Bass give the track the Annix treatment for an entirely new take on this definitive dancefloor weapon. Remixing such a well-known track is no easy feat, but Annix blew this one out of the park. A suspenseful intro maintains enough of the original to be recognizable, lulling the listener into a false sense of security before dropping into one of the most heinous drops of the last decade – this one is guaranteed to blow minds left, right, and center.

The second track comes from one of Viper’s newest signings, Jack Mirror, working together with a long time staple of the Viper family, BMotion. ‘Lust’ delivers retro-futuristic vibes with an apocalyptic flair, perfectly fusing together both producer’s unique sounds for a truly memorable result. BMotion’s euphoric melody writing shines against Jack Mirror’s darker soundscapes, the juxtaposition of light and dark making ‘Lust’ an utterly captivating track.

Counting down the days until the release of Acts of Mad Men Vol. 2, this next tease in the form of two new singles serves to increase already high excitement levels for this seminal release.

InsideInfo & Mefjus - Mythos

Drum & Bass duo DC Breaks have made their way onto the widest range of playlists. Their hardcore club cuts have been rewound by the likes of DJ Friction and Andy C. On the other hand, the songwriting ability displayed on the single ‘Faithless’, featuring Bianca, has plastered them all over the radio. That’s just the tip of a very large iceberg. DC Breaks have earned their stripes in the underground but, with an album due in the Autumn and a packed festival season ahead, they’re about to explode onto the international stage in a spectacular fashion.

Since signing to Andy C’s Ram Records they’ve carved a reputation for delivering world class remixes for some of the biggest names in pop. Their work on singles by Paloma Faith, Lady Gaga, Lana del Rey, Tinie Tempah and others, and production for Example (a cut on the ‘Playing in the Shadows’ album) woke the pair up to the possibilities offered by vocalists. It was the start of the journey that led to the forthcoming album, packed with crossover cuts such as the piano-led ‘Breathe’ featuring Dave Gibson, with its contagious, urgent chorus. Or the soulful explosion of ‘No One Like You’ sung with passion by Niara Scarlett. Or the epic blast of ‘Salvation’ wherein DC Breaks take heavy duty bass sounds and tie them to uplifting, irresistible vocal hooks.

Once they graduated to Ram itself, with monster cuts such as ‘Shaman’ and last year’s battering ‘Lock-In’, they hit the drum & bass A-league. Before long it wasn’t just the drum & bass scene paying attention. DC Breaks tunes made it onto BBC Radio via Zane Lowe, Mistajam and Annie Mac.

“Chase and Status opened the door to drum & bass being accepted in the mainstream,” says Dan, “and through that door went DJ Fresh, Wilkinson, and now us.”

It certainly looks that way with appearances at multiple 2015 festivals, including UKF, NASS, SW4 and Glastonbury.

“I love the wildness of festivals,” says Dan, “Like we played on Arcadia’s outdoor stage last New Year’s Eve, in this big tower with fire blasting out of it. I was literally three or four feet directly underneath the flame-thrower in a really small box. If something goes wrong we were literally toast!”

If DC Breaks can avoid being fried by flame-throwers, the summer will be theirs. By the end of 2015, with their debut album blowing up everywhere, the year might well be too.
