Mateusz Miller solidified his position as one of the most exciting global ambassadors for the sound with his 2011 debut album and he returns to the mighty Moonshine Recordings with another killer full length selection of thick dread bassweight and proper roots vibes. Matt’s influences have always been varied, and his music’s rich diversity is in full effect across the LP as he adeptly shifts between tempos and moods, utilising his ear for melody and rhythm to create an absorbing collection of timeless sounds. The ground shaking sub-frequencies central to each track are built to challenge soundsystems and ignite dancefloors, whether it’s on the livewire rhythms of his jungle indebted track ‘Wicked Dub’, the driving sonic force of the drum and bass styled ‘Different Dub’ or the dubbed out, skank-ready movements of tracks like ‘Earthwalker’ and ‘Indra’. As well as the all-powerful bass pressure, Radikal Guru works with a colourful array of instrumentation, and brings in characterful vocalists YT, Danman and Echo Ranks to provide melodic lead and reggae lyricism on ‘Stay Calm’, ‘Know Yourself’ and ‘Warning!’ respectively. The final result is shining example of modern roots/ reggae-centred music in 2013, executed brilliantly and certain to last the test of time. Out November 25th on vinyl, cd and digital download.

RAMM155 - Lynx - Take Back The Night Feat. Newsome / Shimmy - out 3rd Feb - http://po.st/LynxTBTNShimiT

Lynx genuinely needs no introduction. One of the most respected producers to emerge in the middle of the last decade, his decorated, often daring, productions have scored him firm friends in every corner of the drum & bass scene. Here he makes his debut on Ram Records with two of his most distinctive bombs to date. 

‘Take Back The Night’ blasts off with startling piano power. Infectious, emphatic and heavily hooky, the powerful riff segues smoothly into the captivating vocal tones of Newsome to create a timeless fusion of hardcore hedonism and cutting edge contemporary electronica. Turbo-charged with floor-flattening 4/4 stomps and quick-switch fills, this quintessential boundary-basher pays respect to every formative genre that drum & bass is founded on from techno to rave and beyond. 

‘Shimmy’ showcases an entirely different side to Lynx’s expansive sound. Slippery, smooth and stunningly spacious, the star-gazing riff whirrs and shimmers with faultless funk. Delivered with the clarity and character we’ve come to expect from Lynx, this is, without doubt, genuine future music.

Complete with Andy C's seal of approval, these are two incredible, forward-thinking compositions. Lynx has taking things next level once again!

Easy Star All-Stars - The Great Gig In The Sky

Out Tuesday 18th February on OWSLA

Never is a song that I've been working on for very long time because it is very precious to me. It's about those meaningful and defining moments you've experienced that you're trying hard to recreate. The irrational and impossible desire of human beings to rewind as opposed to looking forward, which only produces nostalgia.

Never (Asa & Sorrow Remix)

Here is our next track as we team up once again with house maven Richard Grey for this massive Lollywood creation entitled “Hey!” This release comes with much anticipation following the success of “Overload”. This time we show a new way of merging layers of electronic music, saxophone, and Brazilian influences for a plentiful feast of undoubtedly contagious harmony. Saxophone at its Best :)

Fully Charged Richard Grey - HEY ( No10 Beatport Chart Supported By Pete Tong )

The first single to be taken from Fred V & Grafix forthcoming debut LP. Recognise showcases these two young producers at the peak of their game. 

Combining prodigious song-writing, epic musicality and dancefloor sensibility, 'Recognise' eschews the predictable structure of todays identikit D+B and opens with intricate arpeggios and skittering beats. Evolving into an ambitious and complex composition featuring lead vocals from Fred V himself. 

Simultaneously intellectual and effortless, it's a breath of fresh air that builds on the success of Fred V & Grafix previous successes 'Major Happy', 'Games People Play' and the current 'Catch My Breath', 

Receiving its debut airplay on Annie Mac's Friday night Radio One show, Fred V & Grafix count Subfocus, Netsky, Mistajam and B Traits as fans. 

Young gun Emperor applies his twisted neurofunk genius to the remix for this package, choosing to frontload the song and harmonic structure before descending with a Spartan bassline workout and rugged tick-tock drums which will have every 21st century junglist grinning from ear to ear. 

Fellow South-Western young guns "Panda" drop the tempo and flip the genre with their own sublime take on the original to round off the package.

Jeff Langton & Daniel Sparham grew up in the drum and bass hotbed of Hornchurch, Essex, both attending secondary school with future “DnB” star, Shimon. Just a few short years later, Shimon was starting to make waves with his tunes on Andy C’s Ram Records. After going out to raves together and seeing the success of their Hornchurch mate in the mid-90s drum and bass scene, the two friends were quickly drawn in, and linked to form what would later become one of the most successful duos the scene, Moving Fusion. 

By 1996 they had gone out and bought an Atari computer, Akai sampler and speakers and started to slowly learn their craft. After a year or two in the studio they came up with, ‘Turbulence’, which Andy C and Ant Miles quickly picked up on. Originally slated to come out on Liftin’ Spirit, once Andy C started playing it out and seeing the immense crowd reaction it was getting, it was decided to come out on Ram Records, later being released as a sampler to the Origin Unknown ‘Sound In Motion’ LP in 1998. 

After touring the world extensively off the back of the success of ‘Turbulence’, the pair felt a sense of pressure to follow up with something of equal significance. A short break ensued and Moving Fusion got back into the studio to produce 1999s ‘The Beginning EP’, which included the massive title track, ‘The Beginning’, alongside the huge hits ‘Brain Storm’, ‘Combat’ and ‘Sex Drive’. In 2000 they had yet another huge EP with, ‘The Atlantis EP’ which preceded 2001s ‘Atlantis Remix’ by then-super group Bad Company. The remix became yet another all-time classic, still receiving plays to this very day. Shortly after ‘Atlantis Remix’ came Moving Fusion’s best selling single, the huge hit, ‘Thunderball’ / ‘Lazy Bones’. The single would be a precursor for what was next to come, and ultimately be Moving Fusion’s biggest project to date. 

It wasn’t until Dan and Jeff moved into a studio in White Chapel, away from their traditional home studio that an album began to take shape. With 24 hour access to the studio, no noise restrictions, and studio neighbours that included Shy FX, Blame and Master Steps, there was a confident vibe in the air. Six months later with much of the album completed and DJ work rolling in fast and furious, they put the final touches on their debut album, 2002s, ‘The Start of Something’. With colossal tunes such as ‘Guy Fawkes’, ‘Star Sign’, and ‘Back to the Future’ all receiving huge DJ support worldwide, as well as ‘Chilli Pepper’, with its flamenco influences cracking daytime radio, ‘The Start of Something’ was an unmitigated success. 

After almost ten years of making tunes and touring the world together as Moving Fusion, the duo made the decision to part ways in 2005 to explore their own musical tastes as solo artists. 

In more recent years, Jeff has been teaching music production at college, while still finding time to collaborate with Shimon & Ant Miles on ‘Pimp Slap’ and ‘Underbelly’, released on AudioPorn Records, as well as the huge single ‘Hysteria’ and ‘Cyborg’, released on Liftin’ Spirit in 2009. Sparfunk and Shimon also reunited for ‘The Smoker’, a #1 hit on Beatport and one of the biggest bangers to hit dance-floors in 2008, as well as a return to Ram with ‘Crash Dummy’ being featured on Andy C’s ‘Nightlife 5’ album. 

As of 2011, the dust has settled and Jeff and Dan have now made a long awaited return to the studio, finally reforming the original Moving Fusion. Futurebound’s Viper Recordings was quick to sign the duos first collaboration in over six years, ‘Black Belt’, a classic Moving Fusion style track, set to feature on Matrix & Futurebound’s ‘Worldwide 001’ LP. The duo are also working on a forthcoming single set to drop on Viper in the near future, proving the duo are back in form without missing a beat. It’s set to be an enormous year for Moving Fusion as they look to reclaim their throne atop the drum and bass world, so don’t blink an eye!
