Bristol

Technimatic - Bristol

‘Silicon’ is the first song we ever released. It came out on Nerve Recordings in 2003. To celebrate our 10 year anniversary and our 1.000.000th follower on Soundcloud(!) today we are giving this song away for free and we’re running a competition where you can win the below prizes. Anyone with an account on noisia.nl is eligible to win :D

Enter the competition here: http://noisia.nl/10

1st PRIZE: Audeze LCD-2 Headphones (€849,-) + 1 x Native Instruments Komplete 9 (€499,-) + 1 x Native Instruments Komplete Audio 6 (€229,-) + 1 x Soundcloud Pro Subscription + VSN017 Vinyl and MP3 + VSN017 Poster
2nd & 3rd PRIZE: 1 x Soundcloud Pro Subscription + VSN017 Vinyl and MP3 + VSN017 Poster
4th & 5th PRIZE: VSN017 Vinyl and MP3 + VSN017 Poster

Audeze Headphones: “These headphones don't sound like headphones, they sound like a studio. I trust them as much as I trust the wall mounted ATC's in our studios” - (Nik)
Native Instruments Komplete 9 + Komplete Audio 6: “If i were stranded on a desert island with only one piece of music software it would have to be Komplete” - (Thijs)
Soundcloud Pro Subscription: “This is a very pure platform for musicians. It's well made, and strikes a very nice balance between user friendliness and artist usability” - (Martijn)

We are officially ten years old. Officially, because 2003 was the year of our first release: 'Silicon' on Nerve Recordings. It was written at Nik's parents' house in Donderen, Drenthe. A small village in a rural area (population: 300). Not exactly the typical breeding ground for futuristic drum&bass... We didn't know anyone who was into what we were into, not in Donderen, not at our school (those three odd guys with their headphones on all day listening to that crazy fast computer music), not in Groningen as a whole, and even in Holland there were only a few people pushing that sound that we were after. At that time, vinyl sales had started to decline, and the 'golden era' of dark/ tech/ futuristic d&b (whatever you want to call it) seemed to be over, while we were singularly about that sound. Not the best time and place for us to start you could say.

But being an island of three friends making music wasn't so bad. As a matter of fact they were amazing years. It's strange to think that we were so focused, in between all the hanging out, smoking weed, playing games and catching jokes we actually took a serious life-changing path without fully realizing it. When we decided we needed management in 2006, we hired another friend from high school, Walter - who had no training, just like us. We're pretty sure he didn't fully realise what he would get himself into!

And then there was the Internet. Through things like AOL Instant Messenger, the Dogs on Acid & Drum & Bass Arena forums (shouts to all the crew from back then!) we found a way to connect to a scene that was only beginning to discover the possibilities - and consequences - of being online. This internet world is how we got our music out there. It seems dead obvious now, but it really wasn't back then. We got our first exposure through a website called 'electronicscene.com': our track 'Drifter' was even featured on the homepage. Think Soundcloud but ten years ago (the domain name has since changed but there's still a demo up there from 2002... It's quite embarassing but here you go: artistserver.com/noisia). Anyway one thing led to another, we met dj Mayhem online, he signed us to Shadow-Law Recordings, helped us on our path, introduced us to people, we signed 'Silicon' to Paul Reset's Nerve Recordings, and then came our first real DJ gig abroad in Budapest in January 2004…

And now we are here - ten years of releases under our belt and a million followers on Soundcloud. Over the years we have met many incredible musicians, labels, deejays and industry people that we consider our friends and that have inspired us, helped us and taught us things. But in a way, we are still that island. Our crew has just grown, but we're still out in Groningen, with our own studios, our own management, our own music on our own labels, trying to do things in a way we think is good.

Having said all this retrospective old man shit, it's important to also mention that we don't feel 'arrived' or 'settled' in any way. It feels like we have only just begun. We're aching to write new music (new Noisia album dammit!). From windy and rainy Groningen: Thank you all for your amazing and enduring support over these last ten years. Here's to the future!

Ten Years Of Med School
Release date: 1st April
Picture disc vinyl + 2xCD // 2xCD // Digital
MedSchoolMusic.lnk.to/TenYearsSo

‘Ten Years of Med School’ celebrates the plethora of talent to have emerged over the past decade showcasing snapshots of the imprint’s most memorable releases alongside hints of an even brighter future. Originally the understated sister label of Hospital Records, Med School is now a standalone soldier playing a significant role in electronic music, scouring every hidden corner of drum & bass and beyond.

The release showcases 18 brand new and exclusive tracks, including some stunning remixes of the label’s finest moments. Ivy Lab lead Etherwood’s uplifting ‘We’re Nothing Without Love’ down a more ominous path while Kimyan Law strips down Royalston’s drum crazy ‘Jungle Gone Down’. Frederic Robinson injects a cloud-like bounce into Keeno’s ‘Nocturne’ and Bop gives ‘Pray’ by The Erised a stunning 170bpm rework.

The album also features a host of new creations and collaborations. Etherwood and Royalston prove that opposites attract on ‘Eyes On Me’ which brilliantly combines subtle, soulful overtones with a dark, metallic allure. Newest Med School recruit Whiney presents the deep, melancholic magic of ‘Nightfall’ while label veteran Lung returns with the energetic ‘To Infinity & Be Gone’. There are also fresh contributions from the roster’s past, present and future, including works from Anile, Rawtekk, G.H.O.S.T, Blu Mar Ten, Joe Syntax, Electrosoul System, Sunchase and more.

The ten year celebrations don’t end there as Etherwood rediscovers some back catalogue highlights and blends with the album’s new material in a continuous DJ mix of 100% Med School music.

The quality of the label is without question and this release is no different. Med School stays true to its foundations of championing forward-thinking and emerging talent - here’s to the next ten!

Dirt & Soul Collaborated

Is It You ft. Laurent John (Ted Jasper & Dr Meaker Remix)

Following on from high profile remixes for labels such as Shogun, Ram Records and Owsla, Dubstep man of the moment, Culprate lends his talents to the EP. Building this mix from the ground up, his innovative and unique take on the track really sets it apart from the rest. Transposing the vocals and including his trademark glitchy style. This mix is something to behold and is worthy of any listener's time.
