Mark Hill - Where Do You Go?

So I recently dusted of some of my old records and cleaned them in order to start ripping some of my old classics and unreleased promos into the digital format. It made me realise how much I loved the oldskool garage sound when things were more "raw", rough productions and not as clean and polished as they are today.

These two tracks are my attempt to recreate that kind of vibe and bring back some of the feeling of the good old days. Going out for free download via the "buy" link, please like, share and comment if you're enjoying the tracks.

Much love to everyone supporting.

Bless

Brock UK - Send For The Fire (Mango Mix)

The more chilled out side to the Send For The Fire EP. The Melon mix makes many nods to the original 90s Speed Garage and Dark Garage sound that focused on heavy and moody organs as well as light and uplifting pads.

Omar & Zed Bias - Dancing (On1 Bootleg)

It may come as no surprise after hearing J. Kong’s discography that the 19 year old has a strong musical background. Tutored in classical music at a young age, studying musical theory and playing in a number of orchestras and jazz bands. His interest in underground culture in recent years inspired him to take that musical knowledge and apply it to production at the age of 15. Through his recent move to North London, his immersion in the capital’s rich musical culture has increased tenfold.

Some 4 years later he has a host of releases under his belt varying across the Bass, Grime & Dubstep spectrum on the likes of Saucy Music and Ali McK’s Articulate Sound. His debut EP ‘Nonsense’ on In:Flux Audio in November 2018 charted at #4. This also had remixes from the likes of 1Forty’s J69. Other releases have seen him receive support from Sammy Virji, Bushbaby & more. Appearances at the likes of Lightbox (London), Thirty3Hz in Guildford and The Cellar in Oxford have also boosted his reputation supporting the likes of Skepsis, DJ Hazard and Unglued. 

He continues 2019 in a similar vain with a Grime/Dubstep hybrid on ‘Cut That’ featuring Lavz. A 23 year old female MC from Luton who’s been on the circuit releasing music across Hip Hop & Grime since her teen years. Receiving support continuously in recent years on the BBC Introducing platforms as well as Reprezent Radio. Lavz has live performances under her belt as well on bigger stages performing at the likes of Stanton Calling alongside Akala and Little Sims.

The 2 have come together together to open up the ‘4 Weeks Of 1Forty’ project in weighty style.

4 Weeks Of 1Forty

Free Download

J. Kong Ft. Lavz - Cut That [Free DL]

The resurgence of the underground in the past couple of years has brought through a charge of new producers. 1Forty has been keeping a keen eye on a number of them, one of those being Leeds based OTIS. The 21 year old Huddersfield born producer was initially influenced by a selection of UK Bass music since he started producing 2 years ago but in that time has been exposed to much more UKG & Bass House specifically. ‘Want U’ sees his first official release take the soulful element of UKG stabs/vocals and apply them into a modern take on the early era of when house began to transition into UKG. This was picked up by Conducta for his hugely anticipated Kiwi Manifesto Mix and has continued to support on his brand new Rinse FM Residency.

This debut release from OTIS follows on from appearances at Holy Goof’s Globes Tour at Church and the o2 Academy Leeds for Detonate this year alongside Chase & Status, Distinkt, DJ Zinc & more. He also opened up proceedings at 1Forty Live #2 at BASSment in February. Other appearances at major venues include Canal Mills, The Warehouse as well as being ever present in his local town of Huddersfield with regular bookings at Five across 2018.

OTIS - Want U [Free DL]

Without doubt the most established name to be part of the ‘4 Weeks Of 1Forty’ release but due to taking time out in the last 12 months the Brighton producer felt a 1Forty release was a great way to crash back into action. That being said he makes his return with his first ever UK Funky track entitled ‘Scorpion’.

Pavv’s profile isn’t shy of an accolade or 5. With a decade of production experience under his belt his Releases across the likes of Southpoint, Audiophile XXL & Yosh have been supported by DJ Q, Flava D, DJ EZ, Notion, Holy Goof, Skepsis and thats just the tip of the iceberg.

With his tracks being a regular feature across A Lister’s sets it elevated him to numerous headline & support bookings across the UK at venues such as Ministry Of Sound, o2 Academy Sheffield and some of the countries biggest events including Bassfest, Supercharged and even King Originals. This has seen him perform on the biggest stages down to the intimate booths with Shy FX, Kurupt FM, Novelist and My Nu Leng just to name a few. 2019 see’s Pavv continue where he left off 12 months ago but this time bringing more variation to the table through Funky, Grime & Garage alike.

Pavv - Scorpion [Free DL]

Originally from Leicester Wibbly started producing at the age of 15 after being in a band through his youth. It wasn’t until the age of 19 after studying music technology he really began to get a feel for building a track from top to bottom. His main influence is UKG but does take from Grime and Dubstep as well after building his vinyl collection across the 3 genres. 

2018 was the year he started to get some self released material out as well as a bootleg of ‘The Calling’ which he received glowing feedback from  Chris Lorenzo and Chris Lake at the time. ‘Vessel’ was one of his first original tracks which really set the foundations for his sound. Support has come from the likes of Jack Junior up to now on his other tracks but with ‘Distant’ being his first official release and the ‘4 Weeks Of 1Forty’ shining the spotlight on some hidden gems this release will provide the platform to push on. 

This has been Wibbly’s first time working with a vocalist, and what better way to get off the mark than with Dakota Sixx. An unsigned vocalist and songwriter originally haling from Birmingham. Shortly after relocating to London four years ago, Dakota released her first solo project ‘Innocence’ which received support from BBC 1Xtra, Nest HQ, Mixmag and Complex. 

Since the success of her first project, Dakota has released music through labels such as Second To None Music, The Sound of Everything, 877 Records, BRØKEN, Saucy Records and now 1Forty. Dakota’s previous releases have also received support from DJ Q, Jamz Supernova, Marcus Nasty and many more!

In 2018, Dakota appeared on tracks for artists such as Star.One, Capo Lee, Affiliate and Mind of a Dragon. Whilst there are many more exciting collaborations lined up for 2019, Dakota’s main focus for this year will be on solo projects that showcase her broader taste in songwriting and genres.

Wibbly Ft Dakota Sixx - Distant [Free DL]

https://soundcloud.com/mph-uk makes his debut on Strictly Flava with Midnight & Say It.

'Midnight' is a skippy 2 stepper, with pitched up vocal chops and jazzy grooves playing over a deep baseline. All the ingredients for classic garage!

The second track 'Say It' is high energy with a pulsating 4x4 rhythm. Again MPH uses so clever vocal chops and chord progression! This one will be a dance floor favourite for sure!

MPH - Midnight

Expect to hear a lot more R&G from myself this year.

PASSIONBOOT

How do you top the lead collaboration from the last FNG (Funky & Garage) EP consisting of Nottingham's most accoladed bass/funky producer - Killjoy, and everyone’s favourite Hackney host - Shantie? Not an easy task by any means, but one that 1Forty relishes. And the outcome? One of Roska Kicks & Snare’s flagship artists in recent years Murder He Wrote links up with Nottingham's stand out Grime MC - Snowy.

With influences spanning UKG, Hip-Hop, Dancehall and Drum & Bass, Murder He Wrote is one of the most distinctive producers in the UK’s fertile bass scene. His original productions have seen him not just make himself right at home on RKS but his prolific remix schedule has taken in official reworks that have released across the likes of Black Butter, Universal and Skrillex’s NEST imprint. 2017/18 saw debut performances in China, Australia and Canada whilst maintaining a healthy schedule across the UK and Europe, shows and festivals alike.

Regular appearances on the airwaves included Guest Mix’s and shows on Rinse FM, NTS and BBC Radio 1 where Toddla T named him as one of his Freshman 2017 alongside AJ Tracey and Nadia Rose. The end of 2018 marked the birth of his own imprint - Rhythm Athletic, with its debut release topping the Juno Download & Beatport charts and gaining support from the likes of Zed Bias, Redlight and Gilles Peterson. With collaborations lined up for 2019 with NYTA, Chrystal and MC Fox and a second Australia Tour already under his belt this release is just the cherry on top of the Honey, Lemon & Ginger..

On the vocal is ‘Nottinghams Saviour’ aka Snowy, a rising star of the underground Grime scene who has been tipped for a huge career by the likes of Complex, Crack and Mixmag. Snowy has continued to build on this profile over the last couple of years. The UK’s hottest sound selectors regularly support his releases inc. the likes of Mistajam, Toddla T, Sian Anderson, Logan Sama, Dj Cable, Plastician, Target and many more. He has made a number of appearances on 1Xtra, both solo for Spyro’s #SoundsOfTheVerse and and sets with the likes of Flowdan, Jammz, Tommy B, Shadow amongst others. His shows have taken him out to the likes of Dubai alongside Skepta and Stormzy and in 2017 became the first ever artist to take Grime to Estonia and the start of 2019 saw him perform in Ethopia alongside another 1Forty featured artist - Maxsta.

Snowys portfolio of tracks has been the catalyst of his growth and has regularly found himself recording at Red Bull Studios in London. Throughout this time he's caught the attention of Idris Elba, Lily Allen and Mike Skinner, the latter signing his track ‘Going On’ to his Label. His music is well known for his unique Nottingham slang and style. Snowys sound encompasses many genres, his ‘Callous’ EP released earlier this year was a diverse body of work which firmly represented this. After achieving his goal of rising through the ranks and dragging the Nottingham scene to the forefront of Grime, Snowy is focusing on carving his name out as not just a high energy stage show performer and MC but a versatile artist as shown with this next release.

Murder He Wrote x Snowy - Honey Riddim

The first of two artists coming back from the previous Funky & Garage Release is Killjoy. Last time out the Nottingham producer graced us with a ‘Voices In My Head’ alongside UK Funky legend Shantie which was Premiered by Trench.

Having being a key player in Nottingham’s underground music scene for the past 6 years his productions have been duly rewarded with consistent releases in the last few years on the likes of Champion’s Label - Formula Records, and also Tumble Audio.. The Label he has pioneered since starting out alongside his own venture - Joyride. His hard work hasn’t gone unnoticed over the years with productions for the likes of D Double E on ‘Like This’ as well as mix’s for FabricLive & THUMP.

In more recent years he has been consistently developing his signature blend of Funky, Bass and Grime in his productions becoming a staple in a host of sets from Funky & Bass’s most reputable names. This has lead to a number of appearances on Marcus Nasty’s Rinse FM show in the past 12 months including participating in the 1Forty Takeover on the former NASTY Crew DJ’s weekly slot to promote the last Funky & Garage Release.

Killjoy - Disturbance

Smokey is the 2nd artist on this release to make a follow up on his first 1Forty Funky & Garage Release. This time he comes through with a 2 step UKG banger with the signature Smokey crackles and bassweight in tact.

Smokey ‘Bubblin’ B is one of, if not the most active DJ & Producer in the Garage scene with a career spanning over 8 years in production. Releases on the likes of Sam Divine’s Label D-Vine Sounds as well as Low Steppa’s critically acclaimed Simma Black its proven that his production is always pushing the boundaries for UKG. Having collaborated with some of the finest names in the Garage scene such as MOAD (Mind Of A Dragon), B-Live, Hatcha and loads more its seen him play the majority of London’s major venues on a heap of occasions.

More recently Smokey’s music has been premiered by Target on 1Xtra and last year ‘License’ featured on Pure Garage mixed by FooR. The London born producer has gathered consistent support from a ton of names spanning from Flava D, DJ Q, Royal T, Matt Jam Lamont and even the likes of Tech superstars Richy Ahmed & Josh Butler as well as every DJ’s favourite DJ - DJ EZ. This summer has seen him branch out into radio as well recently landing himself a slot on Flex FM (101.4) every Saturday night 6-8pm.

Smokey Bubblin' B - Brock Out

Its not often you come across a team of 3 producers under one alias, but that is exactly how the 3 close friends from Sheffield started creating music together in 2013, 6 years later nothing has changed as the trio embark on their 1Forty debut release. Sam, Alex & Arthur all studied at college and started to gain some traction on the club circuit a couple of years later mainly in and around Sheffield at venues such as The Night Kitchen, Yellow Arch, Hope Works, The Harley and Plug.

Following Arthur’s move to the hub of underground music - Bristol, he started on the circuit there which lead him to the heights of playing a sold out Motion on a number of occasions amongst other venues such as Blue Mountain and the intimate Cosies. Spinning all things that 1Forty typically hones in on - UKG, Grime, Funky & Bass, they’ve performed alongside a host of names including Commodo, Loefah, Khan & Neek, Plastician, Bassboy, Swifta Beater, TC4 and Devilman just to name a few.

The trio still produce together sending stems back and forth which hasn’t hindered workflow by any means. Releases have come across Hot Cakes, Project Allout, Saucy Music, Second To None, Pack London and more. In that time they have gathered support from names including Flava D, DJ Q, Zinc, DJ Haus, Shift K3y, Conducta, Murlo, Sammy Virji and L U C Y amongst others.
