Law - All DJ Crystl Mix Part 2

Metalheadz rounds off an incredibly successful year with an EP from core label producer Mikal, who also brings some friends along for the ride.  

META013 is a project that shows the versatility of Mikal. His take on the Headz sound includes steam train steppers, halftime dancehall grooves and classic reinforced era jungle. The EP is an expansive project that includes collaborations with Break and Nymfo, from South Country UK across to Holland.

The dancehall and dub parts of Mikal’s armoury are strongly on display here - his contribution to the long lineage of dancehall influenced drum n bass is a confident- take no prisoners attitude,  typical Metalheadz.

The package is broken down as a four track vinyl EP, with an exclusive digital only fifth track. There is also an accompanying video for the lead track. 

The EP is five tracks worth of intent and is the tip of the iceberg for Mikal’s future in terms of sound and presence on the label and we keenly await his next outing.

The wait is over! Platinum Breakz 4 is here. Perhaps one of the most revered album series in drum & bass is back with a vengeance, and some are saying it maybe the best yet. This release is one of two samplers preceding the album.

First up we have cohorts DLR & Script with the Headz vocalist of choice Martyna Baker whom you may be familiar from her work with Goldie and Lenzman. 
The track opens as a gliding, subconscious led number that is wrapped in Martyna's velvet vocal. As the track moves towards its drop it becomes clear the vocal is a paranoid and claustrophobic affair and it reflects the instrumental very well in that the beautiful atmos draped intro becomes a mid-range bass led growler....

10 years of experimentation and exploration. 10 years of quality and quantity. 10 years of sublime music from all corners of the world. 10 years of Horizons.
 
10 years ago Horizons Music released their first ever piece of music, a track going by the name of '10 steps', produced by Skitty. Since that epoch making moment, the label has evolved into a staple of the Drum & Bass scene, becoming a byword for consistency and quality in the process. It is therefore fitting that ten years on, some of the labels regulars come together to produce a masterful 14 track album, that encompasses everything Horizons is about.
 
A quick flick through the roster for the album tells you everything you need to know. Stalwarts of the scene Digital and Spirit make both individual and collective appearances, providing their trademark blends of invention and raw energy. Break delivers a quintessential effort and Jubei steps up to bring his own relick to Skitty's '10 steps'. Another remix of Horizon's inaugural release comes courtesy of label regulars 'Amoss – doing the original justice superbly.
 
Amoss also take up their place beside label favourite Nickbee in taking on individual efforts, whilst artists as well renowned as DLR, Need for Mirrors, Mako & Hydro, Silent Witness, Detail and Scar make a strong a line up as you are liable to see on any release this year.
 
Musically, it is Horizons all over. From the Thunderous crunch of 'Outta Time' and 'In the Moment' to the deeper cuts of 'Piano Licks and 'Fields', this is an ode to quality. Add in the brilliant experimentation of music like 'Organic' and 'Keep me in the Loop' and you have an album that is worthy of representing 10 years of Horizons Music.

The Down Is Dark

Taken from "Still Moving" (Certificate 18), released in 2001. || http://www.facebook.com/kpolarofficial

Certificate 18 promo notes:

Fall 2001 marks the release of Kjetil Dale Sagstad, AKA K, AKA POLAR's first solo long player "Still Moving". Heralded by the press as "the Carl Craig of drum & bass", Polar is known for his ability to cross genres while maintaining the Drum & bass aesthetic that generated his initial acclaim. 

With this release the 22 year old Norwegian native delivers the definitive album for electronic music purists, demonstrating the diversity of influence with clear signs of techno and new electronica shining through. This LP brings added depth to his already impressive repertoire, continuing to break the barrier between the dancefloor and home.

Polar's sound has received support from a variety of DJ's and producers including Gilles Peterson, Adam Freeland, Laurent Garnier, Goldie, Carl Cox, Plaid and Doc Scott.

Bipolar Suns [Certificate 18 - 2001]

Taken from "Out Of The Blue" (Certificate 18), released in 2002. || www.facebook.com/kpolarofficial

Certificate 18 promo notes:

Certificate 18's prodigal son Polar leads us out of the dirge of winter with his spring/summer collection of deep rolling breakbeats of all persuasions. As the sequel to last year's critically acclaimed debut 'Still Moving', the new 8 track offering sees Norwegian exile K aka Polar moving further away from his drum 'n' bass beginnings into deeper, more diverse water.

Embracing the multi-tempo territory that was hinted at on the 'White Chambers EP', the new LP is startling evidence of a 23-year old production whizz-kid spreading his wings. From the staccato splendour of opener 'Love Is In The Ear' to weird-hop secret track 'Outro', those who caught on to Polar's considerable talent in his previous excursions will revel in the new ground K is treading.

The ice cool drum 'n' bass workouts that K made his mark with still remain in their understated glory, on tracks like 'The Other Side' and 'Out of Range', but it's the excursions beyond his usual production plane that will really impress. Haunting electro sensibilities and ultra-slick, virtuoso production skills provide the basis for killer cuts 'Safari', 'Behind The Scenes' and the more downtempo 'Lectric'.

Hypnotic, groovy, dark and deeply electronic - it's Polar at his very finest, with a deft touch in every detail of every sound: trademark wintery keys and synths soaring over the rolling crystalline breaks. You know it's Polar, but you don't know how he makes those sounds cut so deep…

This is the second LP from the San Francisco based producer, who first made his mark with killer track 'Hidden Rooms' which was swiftly followed with mini-LP '37 Degrees and Falling' - all on Certificate 18. He continues to impress not only the d'n'b cognoscenti, but garners praise from such diverse figures as Gilles Peterson, Amon Tobin, Plaid, Adam Freeland and Mixmaster Morris.


Lectric [Certificate 18 - 2002]

Taken from "37° and Falling" (Certificate 18), released in 1999. || www.facebook.com/kpolarofficial

Certificate 18 promo notes:

Polar (aka K) began recording 3 years ago for the Hopa + Bones Imprint A-Level Records and has gone on to record for Moving Shadow, R&S and Rugged Vinyl.

Brought up and residing in Bergen, Norway alongside close friend and now stablemate DJ TeeBee (aka Black Science Labs), he has managed to equal the dexterity of a UK-based producer, while keeping a very strong identity and coming up with a very individual sound, attracting in the process woldwide respect. 

Currently with DJ residencies in Bergen and Oslo was as trip to the USA, big things look set for this man whose music does the talking… 

‘Mind Of A Killer’, his track on the recent ‘Hidden Rooms 2’ compilation was the most futuristic and adventurous of the album, and was heavily aired by the likes of Gilles Peterson, Fabio and Amon Tobin to name a few, seduced by the track’s intense atmospherics and dynamics, powerful and haunting programming. 

This album expends those intringuing sonic headscapes. 37 degrees Celsius being average body temperature, it illustrates the irrevocable, irreversible slide back from the thaw, into numbing yet taut K-hole serenity. Polar does not forgo his dancefloor roots and sensibilities, using drum patterns which floe from head to toe, melodies and B-lines which grip like an ice cold vice.
