We are stoked to announce the return of a couple of Lifestyle veterans to the catalogue, Bristol boys Ill Truth have served up another piping hot serving of drum & bass for you lot to get stuck into. Few may know this, but Jay and Haden’s debut release as Ill Truth actually came out on our label.. Almost three years ago they touched down with Hivemind // The Realist and started their journey as the duo, and what a trajectory! 

Producing out of Bristol, their music has sent them worldwide, and they’ve become of the most important & current acts in their city’s scene. With releases spanning some of dnb’s most seminal labels such as Shogun & Dispatch, and a recent stellar release on CIA, it’s hard to find a corner of the scene as yet untouched by these two incredibly hard-working producer DJs.

Which is why we couldn’t be happier that they’ve hit us up with the fire, their first original release with the label since last summer’s collab on Creatures debut EP! Two slices of rowdy, bassy dancefloor music, with the unmistakable Ill Truth sound. They’ve taking it all the way back to their roots with a VIP of The Realist off their first ever release, so this is a special one for the label and for the boys. Get it down ya. 

‘Eazy Rider’ sees the boys team up with Bluejay for a heavy cut of deep tech. Built around a driving, snappy break, the tune foregrounds a slick and minimal bass groove, with mid-range wobbles and accents peppered throughout. A mature sound from the lads, this one sits nicely between heavy dancefloor music and head-nodding minimal dnb. 

The Realist VIP is a different story, an absolute shoe thrower of a tune. Originally a moody half-time track, the VIP absolutely flips it on it’s head, crafting it into a big, stinky, rave tune. Subtlety is thrown out the window, and instead you get hit with funked-out, beautifully constructed reese riffs, delivered via a big, banging break. Insanely danceable and super-catchy, this ones built for robust trainers and telling strangers in the dance to fuck off.
