After two critically acclaimed releases on Program, exclusively-signed Frankee now makes his debut on RAM. Naturally, this is a massive release that’s sure to blow up dancefloors worldwide! 

Frankee Black Heart / Wonderland

‘Black Heart’ lives up to its name in every single sense. We’d say ‘it does what it says on the tin’ but there is no tin, just an incredible sense of foreboding ghostly doom. Darkness soars through each eastern wail while the rich bassline drives deep into the groove, doubling up towards the builds for extra drama. Peppered with nuances of neuro funk, once again Frankee has shown an understanding of drum & bass dynamics that belies his young years. 

For the ultimate switch-flipper, head to ‘Wonderland’. The complete contrast to ‘Black Heart’, here we find the London producer paying the ultimate homage to drum & bass jungle’s earliest rave carnations. With vibrant, euphoric piano licks, skippy breakbeats and subs so heavy they need their own passport, ‘Wonderland’ is a quintessential example of contemporary rave. As for the emphatic vocal? We can all agree with its sentiments. Music is indeed wonderful – especially when it’s being written by the likes of Frankee.

Tantrum Desire – Diversified LP - Pre-order now on iTunes and receive "Oblivion" & Reach VIP & " Get On It"Instantly.. Free Grat downloads each week: smarturl.it/TECH006CD 

Released: Sun 28th June 2015

Let's not beat around the bush. Anyone who knows anything knows that this album is going to be big. It's absolutely clear Jay and Dev have put the graft in over the last decade to claim and maintain their D&B-elite status. For one thing, production mastermind Jay has put in the studio hours to hone that distinctive, arena-sized Tantrum Desire sound. And, as DJs, they've proven their ability to take that sound into the real world and make it connect with the biggest crowds bass-heavy music has to offer. There are a handful of acts that can simultaneously kill it in the underground and the mainstream, and we're about to find out why Tantrum Desire is one of them.

So, time to break this down.

Obviously, this album contains more than its fair share of showstopping anthems. “Oblivion”, for example, seduces us with the uplifting innocence of Solah's vocal style, before moving the sound effortlessly from naïve purity to gritty toughness. This, all woven together with stomping bass, jungle drum fills and a stripped-back piano-led breakdown, means that it's going to connect with listeners' emotions as much as ravers' dancing shoes. Some tunes, like the Laura Bayston-laced “Underground” and the syncopated madness of “Genesis”, have already been making waves for a while among those who keep their finger on the pulse. And the aggressively percussive US-influenced “Pump” is currently a key weapon of choice among DJs when it's time to turn up the hype levels.

Then there are a couple of almighty supergroup collaborations. For one, Drumsound and Bassline Smith join the party on “I Need You Here”. This takes the big-room build-up to Empire State proportions. Gentle synths build to a soaring sing-along vocal hook, which in turn give way to huge polyphonic chords. Then the drop is a virtuoso display of drum programming, with a heavy bed of half-speed kicks and snares supporting subtly-switched up samples. But then just when you think you've reached the limit of what the track has to offer, there's a breakdown and another build into a full-speed, full-power drop that's going to hit like a tactical nuke in any rave. Matrix and Futurebound pass through too, to bless “The Shadows” with their skills. Elegant harmonies melt into a sinister dialogue sample and the dark funk of a pizzicato riff in the low registers. The track builds into straight up modernist techstep, taking the classic paradigm and applying contemporary sensibilities of energy control.

But this album isn't all about the big ticket items. It's not just a collection of singles, but a cohesive vision, a journey mapped by a pair of DJs and producers immersed in the music. This is made clear right from the beginning, with the drumless title track setting out the template of movement between vibes and styles. Delving deep, there's “Goddess of Love”, with its unapologetically constant level of tension, reiterated and reinforced by ever-changing sample-manipulation. And there's “Back for Love”, featuring Julie Gordon and Smokesta, an almost lo-fi excursion, which takes tropes from trip-hop and the Bristol Sound to create something that's sure to strike a chord with old skool junglists.

Let's be clear, though. These are just some of the things “Diversified” has to offer. There are sixteen tracks here which, together, crystallise the multiple, complex layers of Tantrum Desire's take on bass-led electronic dance music in 2015. The joy for DJs, ravers and listeners alike is going to be discovering those layers for themselves. So go discover.

Leaders of the new generation and purveyors of dancefloor chaos Serum, Voltage and Bladerunner return to the frontline of drum & bass with their debut, self-titled album ‘Kings Of The Rollers’. Whilst each has their own high-grade production style, these three royals have managed to create a sum greater than their parts, as they steamroll through all the rules to deliver an absolute bruiser of an LP.

Across seventeen tracks expect up-front rollers, techy 2-step beats and pure knockout D+B bangers, complemented with slick jazzy numbers and a wide variety of vocal-lead tracks. It’s safe to say they've lived up to the hype with their most dynamic and diverse release to date.

Amongst the carnage highlights include ‘You Got Me’. A towering tear-out beast ladened with thrashing amens and a thundering bassline that’s ready to push every speaker to it’s limits. Low frequency growler ‘Shella’ is peppered with steppy jungle nuances, with Mancunian dance music innovator Chimpo featuring on both production and vocals for an all-round roughneck sheller. ‘Round Here’ is a brazen jungle prowler with Bristolian lyricist Redders at the helm for a future classic anthem.

Whilst being predominantly known for their heavyweight productions and outrageous D+B screamers, the new album also showcases a variety of different flavours. Jungle roller ‘On The Run’ features the smooth spoken word of Queen Rose and ‘Tisno’ brings a warm steppy swing, inspired by their time spent at the very first Hospitality On The Beach.

Hospital’s three kings have set the scene on fire with their electrifying DJ sets and headline festival performances. Their new 'Royal Rumble' tour takes them all over the UK in 2019 with shows in London, Bristol, Brighton, Manchester and beyond.

Renaissance

The combined heavyweight forces of @CrissyCriss and @TCdnb have already proven to be an unstoppable force. Individually they’ve demonstrated this throughout their illustrious careers, although their recent collaboration ‘Dark Mode’ shows what can happen when the two production heavyweights merge their enviable talents. Released through Crissy Criss’ ‘War on Silence’ imprint, which has given him complete creative control and has enabled him to unleash his recent, similarly titled album, TC isn’t the only pivotal figure who’s made an appearance on the label. And this is why, even over such a short space of time, the imprint has received global attention. After Crissy Criss’ stint on BBC Radio 1, where he spearheaded one of the most imperative drum & bass shows within the scene’s history, this comes as little surprise too. However it’s the music which has been released on @WarOnSilence which has proven to be just as successful. One look at Crissy’ debut LP on the label demonstrates this fact, with one of its lead singles ‘Real’ with WiDEAWAKE gaining a position on Radio 1’s daytime playlist and amassing millions of streams via the Spotify platform.

However, contrary to the commercial viability of tracks like ‘Real’, TC and Crissy come with something much darker. Their next collaboration ‘FIRE’ is a testament to this and it’s one which is aptly named. Pushing through with chaotic drum breaks and featuring Bristol based Carasel on vocals, it’s a call to arms and one which will certainly make its presence known across dancefloors internationally. It’s the perfect record to continue festival season with; Crissy has already detonated this cut throughout the touring market and fans both old and new will recognise this set list monster. There’s an array of artists brought into ‘FIRE’ and it shows the influence which Crissy has within the drum & bass world. He’s able to bring on board names of this level and as a result, provide the most raucous slammers.

Taking no prisoners, Grafix kicks off 2020 by unleashing a heavy dose of acidic pandemonium and drum & bass madness in his latest single, ‘Stutter’. 

His previous singles ‘Radiance’ and ‘Break The Cycle’ showcased Grafix’s darker, more robust sound. His latest lethal dancefloor weapon ‘Stutter’ is another wild ride of grizzly sonics and stabs - the warped cousin of his previous Beatport D&B number 1, ‘Acid Generation’. Grafix’s solo workings dive deep into his love for techno and acid-house and have already reeled in support from the likes of Andy C, Metrik, Friction, A.M.C, Sub Focus and more.

During the last decade Grafix has also released three albums as Fred V & Grafix that come complete with iconic drum & bass anthems, and garnered support on major radio airwaves from the likes of tastemakers Zane Lowe, Annie Mac, Danny Howard, Rene LaVice, to name a few.

Buy or stream 'Ex Machina' here: https://www.metrikmusic.lnk.to/ExMachinaso

Metrik’s highly anticipated third album ‘Ex-Machina’, on Hospital Records, is an exhilarating and flawlessly executed evolution of his unique sonic identity, filled with high-octane drum & bass frequencies and first-class dancefloor tear-ups. ‘Ex-Machina’ continues to elevate Metrik’s sound to new heights with his own vocals and songwriting taking centre stage throughout the 13-track LP, also welcoming features from Grafix and ShockOne. After 10 years shaping the face of dancefloor D+B through his technical precision and immaculate mixdowns, Metrik is firmly established by fans and peers alike as one of the most highly respected producers in the game.

The album opens with ‘Automata’ - this techy bruiser triangulates meaty basslines, crunchy riffs and melodic highs. Metrik enlists label-mate Grafix for the drum & bass / rock hybrid ‘Parallel’, where the pair demonstrate their unrivalled production mastery through uplifting melodies and an anthemic hook.

Metrik has teamed up with Australian bass music titan ShockOne on ‘Dying Light’ which sees euphoric vocal hooks sung by Metrik himself complete with an electrifying bassline, destined to power up sound systems worldwide. The album also includes his previous singles ‘Hackers’, ‘We Are The Energy’ and ‘Gravity’ that saw him packing out dancefloors during his tours across the US, Europe and Australasia.

Having firmly established his dancefloor sound on an international scale, Metrik’s heavyweight drum & bass prowess sees support from the likes of BBC Radio 1’s Annie Mac, MistaJam and Rene LaVice. His powerful anthems have been spun by D+B legends such as Andy C, Sub Focus, Friction, Culture Shock and more, across clubs and airwaves worldwide. Metrik is previously known for his popular solo works ‘Want My Love’, ‘Fatso’, ‘We Got It’ and ‘Chasing Sunrise’, as well as his collaborative remix with D+B high flyer Wilkinson of ‘I Need’, that reached the BBC Radio 1 playlist in 2019.

Having also previously held the esteemed role of BBC Radio 1’s year-long residency host, Metrik is no stranger to holding his own on the airwaves, and can be found during isolation hosting his own weekly ‘Ex Machina Sessions’ live and direct from his studio where the album was created.

‘Take You Higher’… it’s a promise all DJs make each and every time they set foot behind the decks. No matter what genre, style or flavour, the dark art of elevation is THE core premise of all electronic music. It’s the holy grail of dancefloor science… And Wilkinson has been studying it for years.

Living up to his promise, ‘Take You Higher’ is an instant turbo boost for all corners of the dance. Igniting with a half step so emotive you can imagine a boxer walking down to the ring to its hype-fuelled strut, we’re soon dropped into a climactic synth hook, quintessential rave vocal and surging well-bodied power-bass. 

So sharp it can shave a man from fifty paces, so euphoric it can instigate a spine-tingle from fifty miles, ‘Take You Higher’ is soaked in undiluted drama that’s specifically designed to drive your crowd well beyond the all-important ‘next level’.  

Always keen to paint a full picture across his releases, Wilkinson’s also served up ‘Crunch’. A darker, more driving slab of drum & bass, ‘Crunch’ thrusts with a sneering, searing bassline and just the perfect amount of synth-aided uplift. Armed with one of the most electric build ups he’s done to date, it’s yet another example of Wilkinson’s ability to take the dancefloor to places so high they didn’t even know they existed. 

Both ‘Take You Higher’ and ‘Crunch’ act as a promising tease for Wilkinson’s forthcoming debut album. Due for release later this year, it’s set to showcase the rich vein of form the young producer is hitting at the moment. And there’s more…  

Proof, if it’s needed, that the art of taking you higher is essential in all genres, Ram Records have complemented Wilkinson’s breath-taking original with two spectacular remixes. First up, the fast-rising future bass merchant Jakwob:  fusing the finest aspects of garage and underground house, he’s dropped the tempo but paid maximum respect to the theatrical character of the original. With a crisp array of infectious percussive elements and the perfect dosage of minor-key sobriety, it’s fuelled by so much emotion it might just take you too high! 

Next up: Foamo. With a repertoire that includes on-point house labels such as Moda and Skint, he’s been fuelling generation bass with unpredictable slices of dancefloor dynamite since 2008. Lounging in low-end luxury, his debut remix for Ram Records pays homage to years of London house heritage; shuffling with a gorgeous chugging groove and a slight nod to the deeper shades of speed garage movement, like the original, this will sing to many different DJs… Each one of them looking to live up to their promise: taking you higher!
