Skynet - History Mix Pt1

After yet another incredible year for one of the scene’s most beloved labels, Ram has left its mark on all corners of the globe.  Firmly cementing its place at the top with another run of sold out shows all over the world, Andy achieving the monstrous feat of selling out Brixton Academy twice and some serious quality productions from the label’s artists, Ram has been turning heads from all corners of the scene. This collection of tracks celebrate yet another milestone in Ram Records history of bringing you only the finest Drum & Bass cuts.

Ram Drum & Bass Annual 2016 boasts an onslaught of tracks perfected by their ever growing roster of incredible artists. With huge standout tracks such as “Where we go feat Doctor” from heavyweights Calyx and Teebee and the incredible speaker rattling “ Shatterdome” from Audio destroying dancefloors worldwide, Ram has left no stone unturned in this mind blowing representation of all styles of drum & bass.

Bringing all flavours of the scene into the mix, iconic anthems such as the mind blowing “Teddynator” by Teddy Killerz, and “Breathe” by Wilkinson to the beautiful masterpiece “We are not Human feat Hannah Lux” by June Miller and the slicing, head bobbing groove of Gerra and Stone’s jungle bomber “L.I.E.S (The Jungle VIP)” prove that Ram continues to provide nothing but the best quality drum & bass across the whole spectrum. 

Taking massive cuts from Ram’s hugely successful and coveted sister label ProgRAM. New blood from all over the world have made their stamp on the scene with monster cuts from Slang Banger annihilating dancefloors with the catchy “Slaughterhouse” or the legendary MC Fats joining Stealth to bring you the deep, moving piece “The Truth”. With the hugely popular “Encrypted” EP hitting the stores and showcasing raw fresh talent from all over, Ram sets the bar time and time again bringing nothing but the very best. With 35 incredible tracks, this diverse compilation is a perfect delivery of Ram’s finest and best loved work of the year.

Set to make his Farringdon debut here in Room Two next month, the Slovenian hailing DJ Smooth might be a new name for our own sound space but he is, in fact, quite the prolific producer. An intrinsic part of the Viper Recordings clan, the UK based label known for their mammoth output, Smooth has spent the best part of the last few years building up an arsenal of anthemic club cuts for the imprint. Boasting a diverse sound that is as punishing as it is melodic, it's safe to say we're more than amped to have him play here for the very first time in early 2016. With that said it should come as no surprise that we asked him to deliver us an indication of exactly the kind of tracks he’ll be slinging come January by way of a brand new promo mix

Straight from the Middle Kingdom, our next mix comes from Shanghai based Arkaik, ahead of his debut ‘Shapes EP’ on Dispatch LTD. 

An avid label follower since our early years (joining us in 2011 as Octane & DLR remix competition winner), the mix highlights his deep knowledge and respect for the scene.

Don’t fret, this is no nostalgia tour, but focuses on highlighting the relevance of past Dispatch releases today; as fresh the day they were released, mixed with new music, classics and forthcoming Arkaik material. 

“My aim with this mix is to show how the Dispatch back catalogue is still relevant and modern among Drum & Bass’ current affairs. Showcasing my favourite Dispatch releases, from the past to present day, mixed with forthcoming bangers and some older rollers. Basically how Dispatch has impacted the scene today.”

Survival & Silent Witness - Studio Mix March 2013

A true pioneer of the Drum and Bass sound, Gridlok remains one of the most highly regarded artists in the industry. With a discography spanning over a two decades and featuring classics such as ‘Moodswings’, ‘Bottomfeeder’, and ‘Standing Room Only’, it’s little wonder that the Gridlok name has become synonymous with timeless Drum and Bass.

Involved with music from an early age, Ryan Powell aka Gridlok picked up a variety of instruments, but it was after experimenting with a cheap radio shack microphone paired with a 4-track tape recorder that he soon found himself in the murky world of production. Now with the use of a computer and an E-mu sampler along with an ever-changing combination of analogue gear and production techniques, this West Coast producer has led by example, constantly exploring new ways of injecting emotion and attitude into his art. 

The grimy uncompromising style that Gridlok has developed forms the foundation for his glittering career, gaining him the attention of his peers with household names such as Shy FX, Pendulum, and Dom and Roland lining up to work with the American producer. Acknowledged by artists in and out of Drum and Bass, Gridlok has put his spin on other genres, remixing for the likes of electronica giant Josh Wink and house legend Sasha. Gridlok’s original music and remixes have also branched into other media, with his work appearing in titles such as Konami’s Dance Dance Revolution and MTV’s Challenge series. Covering a wide spectrum within Drum and Bass, Gridlok’s versatile production has allowed him to release on a diverse range of labels, spanning from Ram Records and Playaz to Commercial Suicide and Moving Shadow, whilst maintaining his signature sound....
