Sam Deeley - Believe Me Boy

As well as concentrating on the future of our music, a number of our recent album projects also have a 'Best Of' theme to them, and include some anthems of days gone by.

Where possible, we have always sought to improve the quality of these older tracks so that whilst produced in a different age, they can at least be made available in the best possible quality, using digital restoration and better, more modern mastering techniques and equipment.

As a little example of the work we've undertaken on such tracks recently, here is a well known 90's Hardcore anthem in Brisk & Trixxy's 'Eyeopener'.

The first half of this waveform is cut from the only previously available digital version of this track, the best example of which could be sourced from an unmixed Dreamscape compilation released many moons ago. You'll find that it's largely in mono (!) and that the mastering has been used to brighten the entire track to the point where digital distortion is evident in a lot of places. Frequency analysis (and also... your ears) will also reveal it to be sourced from an MP3 (high end roll off). 

The DAT (look it up if you're under 30) has been lost, and nobody knows exactly where it is, so imagine our glee when we finally tracked down a CDR which had been recorded directly from the original studio DAT, and contained the full length, stereo, un-mastered .wav.

This has now been professionally mastered by our friends at Purefocus.ca (the company we have used to master our album tracks and mixes since we started) and I think you'll agree the results speak for themselves. Who knew the percussion was ever panned on this track? Who knew about the synth layering? Clicks and pops are removed, annoying resonant frequencies removed, stereo imaging tools used, all as part of the mastering process to obtain the best possible results. It will never sound like it was produced in 2014, but it'll be the next best thing. 

Not to justify our delays on some recent projects, but this is the kind of work we undertake to insure that any album we release is indeed the best it can be, especially on these projects which contain some older music not produced in the modern age of mirrored drives and raised production standards.

*Even Soundcloud processes the audio playback of these waveforms slightly, the difference will be even more striking once you have the CD!

**AND we should say we've even been over generous to the 'original' version here, which has still been cleaned up and mastered for this album prior to the stereo / un-mastered .wav surfacing. Before we got hold of it, it sounded even worse!

Digital Dubs 1998 - 2014 - FUNC 506

I started producing 29 years ago, and in this time, I've never stopped making DNB/Jungle reggae, dub, techno and all kinds of weirdness.

Brand new tracks on vinyl will soon come but check these oldies for now. Cheers!

This Time_DNB/Jungle

Next Time_Dubbed Out Beats



'Flames' and 'Beat Workout' featured on a mix Spirit and I did for my album, Dubzilla. 'Jailhouse' is a paranoid twisted half-time stepper. 'Mask' has dubbed out techy chords, bags of bass and a smooth amen break. 'Common Ground' is me getting into synthesisers. 'Experience' and 'Distance' are musical journeys with heavy basslines. I made 'Forward Thinking' in a dreamy state after a heap of partying, so there's an oddness about it I like.

'Short Memory' and 'Regret' are rowdy two-step rollers. 'Outrage' sounds like a track from 97 with its loud Reese bass and crunchy breaks. (It also sounds like something my pal Outrage would make hence the name) 'Free Roll' shows I'll use a riff lead on any old breakbeat I can find cos it's fun!

Digital Dubs

Experience

Kicking things off with ‘Don’t Run’ pulsating sonar drops explosive rolling breaks with a killer vocal sample that evokes the heinous sub-bassline igniting all around. ‘Raver’ an elevated frequency that drives the tempo to panned out beats echoing dancing in fields and warehouses all-night long. Surrender to ‘Amazon’ kaleidoscopic break patterns morphing throughout heed the vocal warning. Futuristic stylings of ‘No Responsibilities’ paired with naughty skanking breaks orchestrate this classic roller.
‘Broadcast’ a uniquely exclusive collaboration between Outrage, Amit & Digital
A calling to all Bass lovers cinematically scaped b-lines that stimulate every sense awash with hertz frequencies, mesmerising ragga vocal & tribalistic beats leading you into unknown territories... Welcome to Dubageddon!!!
The augmented dimension of ‘Power’ draws you closer and unleashes its almighty break-laden weaponry. Collaborating with Digital on ‘Equality’ hypnotically dubbed-out riddims & vocals cascading over foundations of warm bass flipping techy-breaks. Signing off the Vinyl format with another collab featuring one of the Drum & Bass scenes signature vocalists Ayah Marar on the beautifully arranged dancefloor tear-out that is ‘All I Ever Want’.
LP title track ‘Behind the Eyes’ intros and questions altered states of existence... gloriously uplifting chords that weave through the vocal sample snippets fuse critical levels of beats & breaks intrinsically wrapped in lashings of sub-bass creating a tidy slice of Drum n Bass!
Signature flavours from Outrage on the LP outro with ‘Fusion’ and ‘Stop, Look & Listen’
