DJ Hype Feat. MCs Stixman, Juiceman & MC MC - Helter Skelter The Outer Limits

Boasting a lot of talent across a wide range of styles, David Pearson (aka Hydro), has been making waves and releasing records since 2003 when his long celebrated collaborations with drum & bass legend, Break, first appeared on Fierce’s Quarantine label. Since his humble roots holding down a residency at a d&b club night in Plymouth, where he was studying, Pearson’s gone on to play all over the world with his own productions finding favour with labels like Metalheadz, Dispatch, Commercial Suicide, Critical and more.

Ahead of his upcoming appearance in Room Two a week on Friday, when he’s set to go back to back with DLR, Pearson kindly put together this 70 minute mix to give us a better idea about the music he loves and the way he plays.

Hydro - FABRICLIVE Promo Mix

On an afternoon like this, when it’s sunny and you’re utterly spent from a weekend, it’s easy to fumble over words, spending far too long trying to choose the best way to put something. But sometimes serendipity has an even more poignant way of putting it and well, describing Remarc’s music is very much like the affected sound-bite introduction to Remarc’s FABRICLIVE x Planet Mu Mix says: “Remarc: original junglist badboy sound”. 

For our purpose today, it’s undoubtedly easier to talk about Planet Mu’s involvement in Remarc’s career, considering that the jungle pioneer and respected master of the amen drum break will be appearing in the Mu hosted Room Two on Friday 20th June. But the fact is, they first started working together reissuing Remarc’s earlier material on the Sound Murderer album, so you can’t really even try and avoid it. That said, the first tune of his that a lot of people latched onto and recognised was ‘Ricky’, a track released in 1993 on his own Dollar label…

As you can hear, the template for a cataclysm of such bounding bass lines and scattershot drum programming that personify jungle music was starting to be interpreted by Remarc in a pretty violent way. Not violent because of the perceived aggression or the tortured “RICKY!” screech, it’s more his approach to layering, to cutting and pasting and micro-editing the drum work that becomes so shocking or confrontational. That sense of an aural threat translated into track titles like ‘R.I.P’, ‘Single Finga Killa’, ‘Stick Em Up’ and ‘Sound Murderer’ which was extrapolated by Mu as the perfect phrase to encapsulate a collection of his early music. 

Sharing a lot of the energy and complexity of the Planet Mu roster’s output, Remarc’s brazen and broken brew of beats and breaks found the perfect kinship with the label. Being just as manic and as layered as a lot of the music they're known for, it makes complete sense that the label would call upon Remarc to represent jungle to the fullest and appear on a bill with Luke Vibert, Neil Landstrumm, Ital and Ital Tek a week on Friday.

Remarc - FABRICLIVE x Planet Mu Mix

Something of an unstoppable force over the last decade, Sub Zero has become a very powerful weapon in the Playaz label’s arsenal. Repeatedly impressing and testing the limits of the Martin Audio soundsystem in Room One at the monthly Playaz residency his production has seemingly splintered with him proving himself to be just as adept at making pensive, lightweight, hoover bass driven thought provoking tracks as he is carving out his trademark arresting jump up dancefloor shells – something he proved culpably on his Bi Polar EP. 

Being a regular to Room One and as a member of the Playaz family, we thought it about time that we asked him to put together a mixtape for us that would actually capture the kind of seismic shockwaves his sets send out month in month out. And this… well this is the 42 minute pearler he just delivered ahead of his set in Room One this Friday…

DJ Micky Finn Feat. MCs Shabba & IC3 - Slammin' Vinyl 2nd November 2002

Throughout his involvement in the heavily revered Skull Disco imprint and the birth of his own Apple Pips label, Laurie ‘Appleblim’ Osborne always seemed to represent his own thing to the fullest. It’s what’s always made him stand out as a character, as a producer and as a DJ – the fact that he simply does things that please him. So when he offered to make us a mixtape ahead of his appearance at the Roska Presents hosted Room One this Friday night, it’s safe to say we were pretty expectant. But what he did was use it as an opportunity to blend together a selection of records he purchased on a recent trip Stateside where he visited The Thing record store in Greenpoint Brooklyn. 

We caught up with him to discuss the trip, his passion for crate digging in general and his forthcoming projects --> http://www.fabriclondon.com/blog/view/appleblim-talks-crate-diggin-his-2-bin-mixtape

Even just the name, Jumping Jack Frost, evokes a certain heritage within drum & bass circles; one that you’d be hard pressed to beat. Firstly there’s his legacy as a DJ, his friendship with Fabio and his gigs across the world. Then there’s his partnership with Bryan Gee in running the legendary V Recordings. Then there’s the success of his own Philly Blunt Records label and the fact that his name graces pretty much every large scale jungle flyer going. Jumping Jack Frost’s name is simply synonymous with the drum & bass sound. 

Starting off at what was then Fridge in Brixton, Frost’s multifarious influences and his command of music travelled far and wide with the explosion of jungle and drum & bass and placed him at the epicentre of a fast growing scene that’s still thriving today. And considering that we’re hosting a room at the annual Playaz Carnival Special in August called ’21 Years Of Jungle’, he’s undoubtedly one of the most perfect people we could ask to play. Ahead of the event and his appearance here in Room Two on Friday 22nd August, he’s kindly put together a rollicking hour long mix that affably displays why he’s still at the cutting edge of a scene that’s already spanned two decades and counting. 

This one’s special.
