15 Years of Technique – Summer Selection Album
PreOrder smarturl.it/TECH007CD


It's sunshine time again. The time when we need a new D&B soundtrack to score our festivals, carnivals, pool parties and barbecues. And you'd struggle to find anyone better qualified to curate that soundtrack than Technique's bosses Drumsound & Bassline Smith. Just a quick glance at their immense back catalogue of anthemic releases or their packed international bookings diary is enough to demonstrate that they know exactly how to bring those summertime vibes.

Things kick off in suitably monumental fashion with a cut from the head honchos themselves, “I Need Somebody”. If you were looking out from a festival stage at a sea of excited hands in the air, this tune's searing vocal hook and unrelenting waves of bass would suit that scene perfectly. And, of course, this album contains a lethal dosage of similarly colossal tracks. For example, MaxNRG enlists a quirky vocal from Marianna to boost the hype-levels on “Headshot” and recent signing Kronology delivers the driving and euphoric “Untouchable”. Plus, there are some sizeable contributions to the big-room roll call from a few names you won't have seen on Technique before, like Oder's “Closer” and T-Phonic & Deadman's “Show Me the Way”.

But summer's not all about the shades-on daytime raving, we need some choice sunset material too for when things get a little darker. Document One and Spectrem exemplify this beautifully with the laid-back and jazzy “Falling” and the Kyphosis-laced “Fade” respectively. Helsinki's liquid maestros LAOS pass through to drop “City Lights” and “Belong”, and Tantrum Desire treats us to the effervescent “Sea Breeze”. For when things get darker still, there are tracks like the technoid, percussive world-unto-itself of Salaryman & Dark Machine's “Night Shift”. Guys like Conspire and Brian Brainstorm bring some full-on jungle, and the whole compilation is peppered with alternative sounds like Digital's dub workout “Groove Together”.

The thirty-one tracks here represent a cross-section of the mighty, multi-stranded, multi-form D&B scene and what it can do for summer 2015. There are names you'll know and names you might not know yet. There are huge mainstream anthems and shadow-bound subtleties. There are tunes for midday and tunes for four in the morning. And for four in the afternoon the next day. Ultimately, this isn't the sound of the summer, this is all the many different sounds of the summer put together on one album. So, the soundtrack's sorted, time to go out and have a summertime that's worthy of it!

2018 has already been a huge year for Matrix & Futurebound. With a massive remix for Pendulum’s ‘Watercolour’ and shows all around the world including UKF Buenos Aires, Creamfields, ADE, Let It Roll, and more, the iconic duo show no signs of slowing down. Their last three singles, ‘Mystery Machine’, ‘Live Another Day’ and ‘Tardis’, have seen massive support from DJs the world round, being played out by everyone from Chase & Status to Pendulum, and are successfully building much deserved hype around their forthcoming ‘Mystery Machine’ album.

Now, building even more hype, the formidable UK duo are releasing a fourth taste of the album with new single ‘Believe’. Delivering nostalgic vibes right from the start, the track successfully infuses Matrix & Futurebound’s signature Epic dancefloor sound with something a little bit different; there’s something mysterious and utterly compelling about the track that makes it as catchy as it is enchanting.

Combining flawless production with stunning male vocals that add to the track’s intrinsic charm, ‘Believe’ is set to be a favourite amongst the drum and bass circuit for years to come. Formidable, poignant, and bewitching, ‘Believe’ highlights Matrix & Futurebound’s prowess across the broad spectrum of the genre, mastering a vast array of different sounds over a lengthy and incredibly successful career that is anything but stagnant.

The iconic duo have been setting standards in the industry ever since they first collaborated in 2005, and now possess one of the most impressive track records in drum and bass history. As the masterminds behind hits such as ‘Control’ feat. Max Marshall (#7 UK charts/Silver certified), ‘Magnetic Eyes’ feat. Baby Blue, ‘Happy Alone’ feat. V Bozeman, and ‘Light Us Up’ feat. Calum Scott, Matrix & Futurebound are hailed as pioneers in the scene – this latest release is certainly no exception.

Luka Per aka Smooth was introduced to music at the age of 10, when he began to practice piano. After practicing for 3 years and later on he became more interested in guitar, also in such genres as metal, hardcore etc. When a couple of years passed by he attended his first drum n bass party and he was hooked!

After hearing ‘Under The Moon’ which would appear on Viper Recordings ‘Acts of Mad Men’ album, Smooth was signed to the label and later went onto release his first single ‘7th Sense’ / ‘Squirm’ (feat. KG) on Viper’s sister label, Viper VIP. Smooth is also one half of Telekinesis who recently made their debut on Breed 12 Inch label, as well as one third of City of Dogs, whose track ‘Absolutely Flawless’ was featured on Pendulum’s Radio1 Essential Mix. 

2011 was a breakout year for Smooth, starting off with the massive single 'Feel So Free' on Viper VIP, which was followed by 'Calling' and Smooth's absolutely immense remix of the Matrix & Futurebound classic 'Strength 2 Strength' on Viper's 'Worldwide 001' album. This was followed by two tracks on Viper's 'Summer Slammers 2011' album, with 'Want It' and 'Alienated' (as Telekinesis). 

Smooth has gained a legion of new followers over the course of 2012 with his massive ‘Blinded By The Light EP’ released in January which featured no less than seven essential cuts which showed the amazing range of the young producer. Busy on the remix front as well, Smooth has provided official remixes for smash hits such as Camo & Krooked – ‘Get Dirty’ (feat. TC) and Seven Lions – ‘Below Us’ (feat. Shaz Sparks), as well as the upcoming Matrix & Futurebound single ‘Magnetic Eyes’ (feat. Baby Blue) and Modestep’s new single ‘Another Day’.

Now ready to launch the next chapter of his career, Smooth has set his sights on working towards his debut album on Viper Recordings which will surely catapult him amongst the elite producers in drum and bass. Serving as the first album single, ‘Virgo Cluster’ is the perfect showcase of Smooth’s trademark anthemic dancefloor funk which he is becoming world renown for.
