Arma returns to the label with his first official 1Forty release after making a splash on his debut with the ‘If It’s Nice Flip It Twice VIP’ at the end of 2021, following in the steps of Jammz & Jack Dat by sampling French Montana’s Shot Caller. This time he returns with an original track being solely responsible for the funky flavours on this series of FNG with a melodic and bass driven number ‘Sequences’.

Arma, the 27 year old producer based in London started producing and DJ’ing in 2009 which is clear to hear in the quality of his output and the labels he’s released on. Taking a mass of inspiration from late 90s House, R&B and Hip Hop for sampling, combined with his influence from key pioneers in Bass music, Redlight, My Nu Leng, Notion and Jamz Supernova it’s no surprise to learn his release on Redlight’s Lobster Boy imprint in 2019 was his best accolade to date. 2015 saw ‘Vex’ picked up by Monki for Fabriclive 81 and an appearance on LA based label Juke Bounce Werk further bolstered his reputation seeing him pick up shows across the UK. From club level at the likes of Soup Kitchen (Manchester) to festival level at the likes of Southbeats (Kent) before the challenge of COVID shackled the music industry and its habitants in 2020.

When most struggled for inspiration and productivity Arma embraced the challenge with a string of self releases taking advantage of Bandcamps focus on supporting artists via ‘Bandcamp Days’ throughout the pandemic building up his discography with high calibre originals and edits which he’s now reaping the rewards seeing bookings come in himself around London as well as Notion getting behind his releases consistently in particular at his club shows and festivals alike, as well as his latest mix for Dummy Magazine.

Dropped this one a few years back with @Z_James & had to pull it down due to a few factors, but thought might as well bring it back out the vaults! Free DL one on Bandcamp.

'Check Up On It doesn’t fit comfortably into any one genre bracket, but is bursting with UK underground vibes - bruk up grooves, R&B vocal chops, trippy arps - held down with plenty of greazy low end.' - Kultura Collective

Conga Drive is the epitome of the UK Funky sound. The percussion is simply impossible not to groove to and the subtle subs underpin the track perfectly.

We are absolutely honoured to be able to give this away for free and are expecting to hear this one in sets across the globe.
