Technique Podcast - Mixed By No Concept - April 2018

When the sun's out and a season of holidays, festivals, and general good times stretches lazily out in front of you, there's only one thing required to complete the picture. And that's a drum 'n' bass soundtrack, ideally curated by some of the most respected tastemakers in the scene. Lucky us, then. Drumsound & Bassline Smith are back with another Technique Summer compilation stacked with the full three-sixty of DnB.

Of course, the label bosses themselves treat us to a couple of choice cuts from their studio. There's the epically atmospheric I Want Your Love, and you've probably already heard the militant jazz-tech of The Hustler scything through a rave. Then there's Technique's roll-call of soldiers. From the intimate and emotive sounds of Tapolsky & VovKING, via a minimal roller from Kronology and a sunlit take on Gradual's sound, onto the main stage fireworks of L Plus and Tantrum Desire's contributions, and the unshakably individual MaxNRG, we've got every piece in the jigsaw. Document One fans will be buzzing for Uh Huh VIP, while recent signings No Concept show what they can do with two different takes on Silhouette.

You only have to glance down the list of thirty-six tracks on this album and the eye-watering array of artists assembled for this project to see the love that Drumsound & Bassline Smith have put into compiling it. Names range from undisputed institutions of DnB to relative newcomers, with music touching every corner of the scene. This is a summer album, sure, but it's also a 2018 DnB album demonstrating the strength, breadth and depth this music has to offer. The sun's come out and the heat has arrived.

Episode 58 - January 2020 - Technique Podcast mixed by No Concept

Own It Now: technique.lnk.to/BeThe1

Core members of the hand-picked elite force that make up the Technique Recordings roster, No Concept are known as much for their eclectic selection of influences as they are for sheer dance demolition.

And here's how they're setting their stall out for 2020.

First up is a trip down memory lane with 'Be the 1'. No Concept deliver pitch perfect old skool vibes in the intro with pitched-up vocals, breaks, stabs...all that 1991 goodness. But behind the throwback facade lies a militant smasher aimed straight at contemporary dancefloors. The savage bassline assault blended masterfully with the retro elements means this is going to find fans amongst selectors of all persuasions.

Then 'Remember' flips the script. No Concept take us through moods of anxious tension, soulful emotion, and hyped anticipation before we've even got to the drop. Moments of melody and harmony signal that this tune isn't going to do things by the book. The dark minimalism of the drop, made from rolling beats and modulating bass tones punctated with gorgeous floating vocal samples, is a call to arms that's guaranteed to resonate with ravers.

No Concept live up to their name once again with two tunes that defy neat categorisation. The constantly evolving style of these producers means that each one of their releases delivers something new every time. Better pay close attention.

Be The 1 / Remember

Own It Now

No Concept - Be The 1

No Concept - Remember

Own It Now: technique.lnk.to/Falling

No Concept, Technique's boundary-traversing, category-defying production duo, are back. Following up from one of their biggest releases to date – the huge 'Be the 1' backed with 'Remember' – expectations are high, and with A-lister support already secured for this release, it looks like they've struck gold once again.

Hit play on 'Falling' and we're immediately transported back to the roots. The reggae samples, the reverb, the delay and the building rhythmical elements all combine to evoke that early crucible of sounds that spawned jungle. But we know how No Concept do by now. The clue's in the name, and just when we think we've got a handle on their sound, they twist up the style once again.

While the sub-genre pigeon-holers debate whether this is deconstructed two-step jungle or reggae-influenced jump-up, the rest of us will be too busy skanking out to the the incendiary drop. Savage bass timbres drive the energy onwards while rolling drums – drawing heavily on classic breaks – set the mood. If the ultra-slick production levels didn't give it away, this could easily be a revisited classic from the mid-nineties, and it's going to hit like a hammer-blow wherever it's played.

Still coming with something fresh every single time, if you didn't have No Concept on your list of buy-on-sight artists before this release, it's about time that changed.

Episode 63 - August 2020 - Technique Podcast Mixed by No Concept

Own It Now: technique.lnk.to/LetMeKnow

This release comes as the latest in a surge of highly-regarded, level-raising releases from Technique's No Concept. 'Be The 1', 'Remember' and 'Falling' quickly became some of their most celebrated tunes to date so, having raised the bar, the No Concept boys are hear to vault it once again.

'Let Me Know' opens with a chilled moment of ethereal melody. Simple and stripped back, until the approach of rolling drums transports us immediately to blissed out summer DnB memories. The hazy chords stand aside and allow soulful vocals to take centre stage. Right from the intro, this is sunlight DnB.

And then the tune drops, delivering a pure dose of atmospheric liquid-infused music. Those sharp, precise drums anchor the tune to the dancefloor, while allowing the building harmonies, melodies and vocals to propel the music onwards. No Concept construct a multi-layered, musically-potent landmark right before our eyes and ears without ever losing touch with that raw emotivbe vibe.

This might be No Concept's furthest excursion yet into this style and, once again, it cements how accurate their name is. With no fixed concept or formula of what their sound should be, they simply deliver drum 'n' bass music of all shades and tones. This is No Concept on a roll.

Let Me Know

No Concept - Let Me Know

Own It Now: technique.lnk.to/RebelAnthem

This is a collaboration that was bound to happen. Both No Concept and Mad Hed City have been carving uncompromisingly original paths through bass-heavy music, and it was inevitable their scenic routes through genres and sub-genres would eventually intersect. 'Rebel Anthem' catches all the artists involved at absolutely prime-time, coming together to deliver a piece of work that flexes their powers to maximum effect.

From the confident restraint of the fade-in, this tune has got wheel-up written all over it. Intensifying vocals are deployed perfectly to add fist-in-the-air inspiration to the rising arc that leads to the drop, giving us a forty-eight bar intro that creative deejays all over are going to find a place for, both in the blend and run from the edge.

The electrical storm of a bassline that explodes onto the scene leads the way, modulating through timbres and bending across pitches as No Concept and Mad Hed City stamp their authority on the track. Deftly-programmed fills, a punchy roll-out drum pattern and sing-along vocal motifs complete the picture and make this a powerful weapon for selectors.

It's a bold move to put 'anthem' in the name of your track, but No Concept and Mad Hed City have lived up to the promise and delivered exactly that. 'Rebel Anthem' hits hard.

PRESET & SAMPLE PACK - bit.ly/NoConceptTE

Meet Brian and Russ, aka No Concept.

Coming up in the bass music scene of the UK's south coast, it was almost inevitable that their shared passion for constructing powerful dancefloor beats would lead them to start collaborating. And so the seeds of No Concept were planted.

Brian was already well-established as a dubstep producer, with several million YouTube views and features on massive compilations in his CV. Under the name Dubba Jonny, he'd been responsible for anthems like “All In”, and the viral “Dubstep Production” series that walked the line between parody and purist bass-and-beat carnage.

Simultaneously, Russ, aka Russla, was rising through the ranks of Bournemouth's drum 'n' bass scene. As a deejay, he became a regular fixture of the biggest line-ups in the area, sharing flyer-space with A-listers like Shy FX, Sub Zero, Drumsound & Bassline Smith, and Hatcha.

The pair's first forays into production together were, by their own admission, “for fun”, but as their joint output started to build a reputation, labels came calling. Adopting the name Glass Cobra, they began to deliver a series of hard, aggressive releases and rave-wrecking back-to-back deejay sets that put them firmly on the map.

No Concept is the next stage of their evolution. Wiping the slate clean with a brand new name, Brian and Russ are coming with a fresh new approach without any thought for sub-genre constraints or preconceptions. Each one of their releases comes loaded with unpredictability coming, as it might, from any part of the drum 'n' bass spectrum.

But, whether they're delivering a sunlit vocal anthem or a viciously filthy rave-weapon, it's always with the same dedication to musical and technical skill that saw them catch the eye of Technique Recordings in the first place. The No Concept story is just beginning.
