CAT N. TDR026 - RELEASE DATE:  19 June 2019 beatport exclusive
LABEL: THE DREAMERS RECORDINGS 
ARTIST: NEVE
TITLE: NOBODY EP
The mighty Neve, the label manager of The Dreamers recordings is back with a banging 7 track EP, that he describes in his own words:
“The name of the Nobody EP comes from my sound research, sometimes I find myself doing the oddest things for creating sounds. As a label manager I always advice other artists to work on a sound that makes them unique. In the last months I’ve released some dark rollers tracks on labels as Guidance and Lifestyle Music, but at the same time I kept working on more experimental areas (The Dreamers Rem Phese and a release with Calculon on non60). While the general drum and bass sound is clearly going in a defined direction, I chose to release an EP with a broader music spectrum, including two 100bpm tracks. With this work I want to expand the boundaries of my productions, maintaining the signature sound that I’ve created  using my trusty hardware gear. It is a collection of the best dancefloor tested tracks, produced and refined in the last two years, and remark the unidefined but defined sound of 'The Dreamers Recordings' : a good place for good music.

“Nobody” is a clear tribute to The Prodigy sampling skills, but has a trap attitude and a raw distortion, “Keep it up” with Was A Be is a 90's sounding 4x4 track that starts at 170 bpm and drops down at 140 in the middle. A perfect dj tool to explore different shades of bass music. “Skirts” has a bouncy bassline to shake the dancefloor, “New energy” is pure halfstep business with gritty synths, “Midi gal” feat Neekoshy is another halfstep tune made with the Turin based Mc Neekoshy and with sampled birds: dedicated to all the dnb ladies, “Belly dance” (with Frame) is one of the most played in Neve’s sets of the last two yers, this what happen when halftime meets the dub, “Sandonarcos” has been created on the southern Italian beaches with local samples and closes the EP with a 100bpm tempo.

NEVE BIO:
In 2016, he created ‘The Dreamers Recordings’, where he work as a manager , a+r and mastering. Providing high quality ground breaking music and supporting Italian newcomer producers was -and still is- the goal of the label, which immediately received the appreciation of international top djs.
In 2017 Neve won the Redbull Culture Clash of Milan, with the ‘Hellmuzik’ team, playing jungle music in the first round. Currently, his releases appears on labels such as  Med school, Shogun audio, Guidance, Flexout, The Dreamers, Rua Sound, Delta 9 , Dutty Audio (and many more..) and have been played on DNBARENA, UKF, KMAG , BBC Radio 1, receiving support from many top dj’s. 
Years of experience as a dj made Neve’s sound a patchwork of styles and genres. Old school and new school blend in, while rolling, footwork, jungle, hip-hop, house , uk garage and neurofunk mix mercilessly. And this variety of sound is reflected in his production: make only one type of drum and bass is  a musical limit for his open mind. At the moment he is working on releases for, Hospital, Dread rec, Guidance, Unchained, Overwiev and the Dreamers, while building his side live project with hardware synths and drum machine, going from house to hip hop.

Neve - New Energy (TDR026D)

SOUTH LONDON SPICE!

Three years since his last solo release on Diffrent, the label boss returns with a spicy serving to match the summer heat!

‘Fajita’ starts off sparse on the drumwork, letting the wiggling, warping bassline flip the dancefloor on its head. That is until Dexta turns up the gas in the second half, dropping in a thumping four-to-the-floor kick and subtle break to see out proceedings with a sizzling energy.

‘Amethyst’ is collaboration based on an original track by Lucent, and finds Dexta at his most Diffrent. Like the soundtrack to a bout of deep-space madness, an off-kilter beat pattern (watch out for this one DJs!) meets sharply oscillating low-end, robotic growls and an eerie, half-heard vocal.

If you’ve heard a Dexta set anytime in the last 12 months, there’s a chance yo

Howitzer fires off two high-powered, 160bpm weapons for Sweetbox, returning to the Diffrent Music sister label for his second solo outing, after the success of last summer’s ‘Blackjacks’.

Lead track ‘Lemonhead’ rains down a fiery combination of militant drumwork and oppressive bass stabs. There’s an atmospheric tension and relentless quality to this one that’ll have ravers hooked from the first stomp of the kick drum to the outro’s last smouldering crackle.

‘Foundry’ takes a similar sound palette but approaches via a more sleuthy route. Sludgy low-end pulses meet a plodding beat, with each mean step chained together by the kind of yawning groove that can’t fail to have shoulders dropping in the dance.

Both tracks will be available digitally from Friday 22nd November, with a super limited run of 10” pressings available at the Clashmouth Drum & Bass Label Market on Saturday 9th November

Bay 6 Recordings' sister label Calibrate Records continue to impress with their high-octane mix of 'rolling beats, breaks and bass', drawing for that at maximum capacity here. We've witnessed the likes of Madusea, label boss Echo Motion, Rozfresh and more crop up on the imprint, who are pushing forward and going from strength to strength with each passing release. Now, they've locked the exciting, Chicago-based beatsmith Johnathan Thomas for a cracking 2-tracker, further embedding their commitment to driving a different sound than the sonics you can find over on Bay 6. It's a supreme, educated take on the vintage sound, evidenced in all its glory on 'A Vibe', a striking ode to the junglist, breakbeat era.
