Echo 1 - No Filter

Fierce has been an important figure in drum & bass for a long old time now. First starting out on No U-Turn at the age of 16 in the mid ‘90s, he’s gone on to properly earn his stripes, gracing respected labels like Prototype, Ram, Virus and so many more whilst setting up his own imprint Quarantine along the way. In short, the man’s reputation carries all across d&b and to all corners of its spectrum. You could call him a DJ’s DJ, or you could just call him what he is, namely insanely committed to exploring and scoring the nether regions of his chosen form. Fierce has always got material that other people don’t and he’s got an incredible knack and fusing it with tracks people know a bit better with aplomb. He really gets it, on a technical and physical level so we’re chuffed to be able to present this promo mix from him ahead of his upcoming back to back set with Zero T in Room Three on Friday 27th March.

Echo 1 started his drum and bass journey in Potters Bar, Hertfordshire. At a young age, after an introduction to late eighties hip hop by his older brother, in the early nineties hardcore arrived and Echo 1 found his sound.

Tracks like 'Music' by LTJ Bukem and 'Darkage' by Solo were unlike anything that he heard before and sparked a lifelong passion for music. Eager to hear more, he tuned in to London-based pirate radio stations such as Rush, Pulse, Eruption and Dream FM. During the mid-nineties, Kiss FM started Wednesday night jungle shows. What was underground music was now being recognised mainstream, highlighting the full range of sounds developing in the drum and bass scene. Randall, LTJ Bukem and DJ Hype were amongst the DJ's on rotation and these shows were definitely influential in defining Echo 1's journey.

Forward to 1996 and a 16 year old Echo 1 went to his first drum and bass night. Logical Progression was playing at the Ministry of Sound and it was the first time he heard his idols play live. Soon after, he got his first set of turntables and the record collecting began.

The London rave scene took him to nights like Movement, Swerve, Fabric, Metalheadz and the legendary venue, 'The End'. Here he saw pioneering drum and bass, played by the most influential DJs and producers. The End hosted Renegade Hardware, Ram, Promised Land and other label-focused nights. Truly unforgettable moments.

 His love of bedroom DJing led to a stint on LifeFm, a radio station run by the jungle/drum and bass promotor - Paul Roast.

Echo 1's influences come from wide spectrum of genres. From deep Detroit-style house, old school hardcore, early hip hop, jazz to orchestral music and film soundtracks and he is very open-minded musically.

His drum and bass influences stem from labels such as Creative Source, Good Looking, Metalheadz, Reinforced, Virus, Timeless, Moving Shadow, Renegade and artists including Total Science, LTJ Bukem, Peshay, Intense, Digital, Spirit, Marcus Intalex, A Sides, DJ Lee, Source Direct, Polar, Optical, Fierce and Trace.

2019 saw Echo 1 set up a small studio in his Hammersmith flat and inevitably start producing music. His intention - to explore all his years of influences and start creating the music he has always loved. 

2021 sees his first release on FX909 MUSIC and later in the year, releases on Omni Music, Liquid Flavours Records and Silent Force Recordings. 

Hope you enjoy listening...
