You would expect that, as a musician, my greatest motivation was simply to make music. Well, that would be quite obvious, wouldn't it? As an artist I also try to understand the needs, the concerns and the current situation in which people and the world live. I believe that sometimes we need to be "Something Else" and approach things differently in order to change the environment around us.

Speaking of change, I decided to escape my comfort zone a little bit in this track. I just let myself be carried away by what I felt at the moment, so I think it's a very experimental track. However, I believe that it keeps the essence of Melodark - the balance between dark moments and harmonious melodies, the calm in the middle of the storm.

In the end, I think this track is really "Something Else". Literally...

Hound and Chisel team up for the first offering, Dissever. An excellent display of the two producer’s respective sound palettes and confidently complimented with a featured verse from renowned UK lyricist Joe Raygun. Composed of dark and aggressive soundscapes, Dissever draws inspiration from the classic sounds of Deep, Minimal Drum and Bass. A vibe often executed in great style by both Hound and Chisel in their solo work.

Chisel x Raygun x Hound - Dissever

Inspired by the series and video game "The Last of Us", this track aims to captivate the listeners through its blend of intricate melodies and driving basslines that propel "Endure and Survive" forward. Hozho's meticulous attention to detail and flawless production techniques combined with the vocals of Suren Poghosov ensure a sonic experience that is both intellectually stimulating and undeniably addictive. Each layer of sound intertwines perfectly, building an atmosphere that will enrapture Melodark enthusiasts and novices alike.

Hozho - Endure and Survive

Endure and Survive

Arkii's remix brings a different mood to "Honey Trap", widely considered one of Hozho's best hits with over 3 million streams on Spotify and over 11 million plays on YouTube. This remix brings a more progressive wave with a slower bpm, and with the vocals of Suren Poghosov (from "Endure and Survive") it brings the ideal vibe to close your eyes and fly away, making it the perfect track to end a DJ set. This remix strengthens Honey Trap's status in the world of electronic music and presents an emerging artist from India.

Probably one of the best tunes of the decade by one of our most influential artists, it was a pleasure finally remix a Bonobo track. One for Sun&Bass (because we can't go).

Buy or stream 'Hospitality House Party' here: www.HospitalRecords.lnk.to/HospitalityHousePartyso

The Hospital Records family are here to provide your much needed dose of fresh cuts from all corners of drum & bass in their ‘Hospitality House Party’ compilation. The annual summer album from the south-London based imprint provides a soundtrack for a time in our lives that has changed every one of us. From their homes to yours, their weekly virtual parties have allowed us to come together under the shared love for 174 beats per minute.

The album is packed with 32 brand new original tracks, collaborations and remixes to make sure that good vibes and even better music are in plentiful supply, featuring the likes of Camo & Krooked, Flava D, London Elektricity, S.P.Y, Kings Of The Rollers, Degs, Logistics and Makoto, seamlessly blended together by Nu:Tone on the continuous mix.

Delivering everything you’d expect plus more, Urbandawn’s ‘Carnival Blues’ is a nod to his eclectic musical background.The Sao Paulo-based sonic architect canvasses vibrations from around the world into an untestable drum & bass cruncher. Villem sets the compilation in motion with ‘We Had A Song’ ft Leo Wood, a 2020 cover of a classic by the progressive contemporary icons The Roots - “You Got Me”. Villem infuses drum & bass with neo soul and hip hop to create a sublime liquid bouncer drenched in moreish guitar riffs and comforting strings.

His first release since his seventh studio album, Hospital head-honcho London Elektricity has teamed up again with the Stockholm-based Bulgarian Goddess, providing stunning orchestral sounds in ‘Someone Once Gave Me A Melody’. Camo & Krooked meet Pola & Bryson on their official remix of ‘Turn Up (The Music)’. Incorporating the anthemic synth and vocal leads from the original, brisk breaks and growling basses flip the tune on its head turning it into a sub-heavy summer striker.

Embarking on an interplanetary journey through bass-ridden black holes, powerhouse trio Kings Of The Rollers have stepped up with ‘Saturn’s Strings’, plus ‘The Prophet’ which marks Voltage’s first solo release on Hospital Records. The compilation also sees an exciting release from dance music duo My Nu Leng as they join forces with Dread MC on ‘Worldwide’, a tearout destroyer that draws for system shaking basslines.

Whilst they won’t be able to unite the Hospital family and wider drum & bass community this summer, Hospital Records and Hospitality continue to supply the highest calibre of music, no matter what the circumstances.
