5 Year Remixes

Rave Alarm

VARIOUS ARTISTS - ‘Audio presents RAMlife Drum & Bass’
RAM RECORDS - RELEASED 22nd February 

Pre-order RAMLife and get Audio -  Foodchain now - http://po.st/AudioRAMLifeiT

2014 stands as a defining moment for the RAM Records imprint. Not only did it announce the pivotal signing of artists like Audio, Teddy Killerz and Bensley but they also oversaw the birth of compilation series RAMLife hosted by Loadstar. Even in its first form, it contained nearly every essential release the last twelve months had to offer. 

But this year, RAMLife is taking you into deeper and murkier dimensions. Having already flexed his production muscle on the ricocheting, four-track ‘Nil by Mouth’ EP, as well as his first visual debut in the music video for ‘Heads Up’, it’s now time for Audio to cut open and expose his musical psyche. 

Including some of the most aggressive, technically adept and prominent artists the genre has to offer, including Bad Company, Optiv & BTK and Noisia to name a few, no stone goes unturned for the album’s entirety. Audio also throws bass-fuelled bullets in the form of exclusives, with explosive VIPs that have yet to be released. 

The brand new cut ‘Foodchain’ from Audio sets a theme which is prevalent throughout all 27 tracks. Uncompromising yet diligently crafted, it leads you into a freight train of musicality which holds you hostage from start to finish. Zipping through to the mechanical composition of Mefjus’ ‘Brainwork’, all the way back to Spor’s heavy-hitting ‘Bullet Time’ remix; this is a no holds barred exploration of the genre’s darker side.  

But what can you expect from the man who garners such an explosive reputation across the club circuit? Audio brings his live personality into the whole album and accompanying mix; one that doesn't let you pause for breath. They're a collection of tracks that'll leave an atomic bomb sized impression inside the community, which further solidifies his reputation as an ever- growing, unstoppable goliath.

Skeptical - Cold One (Jubei remix)

Since the beginning of his career, the name Audio has been a synonym for unmatched power and a colossal presence within the drum & bass community. Competition have crumbled beneath his output, with the producer quickly becoming revered for not only his sound, but for the dark, thematic energy he brought to every live set across the globe.  Whether it’s causing bass-lead devastation at renowned festivals, like the Czech Republic’s Let it Roll, or the darkest corner of notorious London hotspots, there’s no denying one of the genre’s most profound overlords. 

And following the monumental success of his ‘Nil By Mouth’ EP, which saw him rise to an even more prominent position across the cyber world (amassing thousands of streams within days, despite being uploaded onto a brand new Soundcloud account), Audio is making a welcomed return. 

‘Shatterdome’ is stocky, imposing and forcibly holds you in its grasp. One of the most sought after, climatic anthems since it was first premiered within one of his infamous live shows and rinsed from Ibiza to the US by Andy C, ‘Shatterdome’ manipulates cinematic samples and pushes you into an apocalyptic soundscape.  Quaking with every drum roll, it’s a techy thumper which propels you through on steroids. A fresh cut elaborating on the producer’s impeccable standards, this single is undeniably fierce.

Just as intimidating is the double AA side ‘2 Stroke’. A pounding riddim underpinned by a bassline that reverberates through, it’s gradually built upon with a clanking cowbell before breaking into a synth like structure. Demonstrating a complexity which bares its teeth, whilst being indisputably intricate, Audio presents a flipside worthy of its predecessor.
So once again, it’s time for Audio to lay siege on your aural synapses; no other individual does it like the underground overlord.

Skankandbass is dedicated towards the official promotion of record labels and artists in the world of drum & bass music. Since inception in 2010, Skankandbass has unearthed some of the freshest talents in the scene and has opened many doors for unsigned artists. Now, a few years in to the game, Skankandbass decides to take on the role of a record label to put together a series of free download singles which aims to further help spread the work of the best unsigned, newcomer artists who deserve more recognition.

Valentyn Artemenko, otherwise known as Pageant, is a producer from Ukraine who is now based in Israel. Drum and bass has been a very important part of his life but just listening was never enough so the only natural progression was to begin making some himself. Using creative influence from producers such as Seba, Calibre, dBridge and fellow countryman Sunchase, he has crafted a sound that is diverse and unique, perfectly fitting the Skankandbass ethos. Both debut tracks show impeccable production and musicality, further showing an already mature sound.

Instra:mental - Fist Level 2B

Having over 30 releases out there on many different labels, soundaddict Rogier Habraken a.k.a. Mindmapper lost his status as "new-comer" long ago. Thanks to support of many keyfigures within the scene, he has laid down a solid foundation for the future. Backed up by many gigs, residencies and appearances on events, radioshows and festivals in both the Netherlands and abroad. Next to that he's co-owner of Break-Fast Audio, sound designer and mix engineer for Dutch broadcasting and has a curating duty for the online music discovery service 22tracks.com.

Coming from a background of working with bands, playing piano, double bass and electric guitar for many years and building his own studio, Mindmapper has got all the musical skills a producer might want. What started out as recording and arranging songs played by his band, evolved in a serious affection for cutting, sampling and composing electronic music. Combined with his education as an Audio Designer, Mindmapper is a musical mastermind whose style expands way beyond just Drum & Bass. 

It's hard to describe his broad spectrum of productions in few words but one can find all sort of influences ranging from techno to rock and dub to classical. His tunes and collabarations tend to explore the "boundaries" of the genre and have been spotted, not surprisingly, by a broad audience. Support comes from Loxy, Doc Scott, Hazard, Hype, Octane & DLR, D-Kay, Bailey, Fabio, Consequence, Gremlinz, June Miller amongst many others. With material forthcoming on Samurai Music, Dispatch, Eternia Music, Soundium X, Creative Wax and CX, 2013 looks bright.
