My Time

Alix Perez - Contradictions

A favourite throughout D&B scenes across the globe, the legendary DJ Marky is back on Shogun Audio with his highly awaited track with fellow Brazillian producer Alibi and Bristol-based vocalist Charli Brix, whose recent debut album has solidified her spot as one of the most sought-after voices in drum and bass music. 

Titled ‘Natural Feeling’, the trio serves up a crisp, groove-laden beauty of a song that's beautifully  infectious and feel-good nature will get people smiling and dancefloors moving from Sau Paulo to St Paul’s. Not many tunes work perfectly through both a sound system and a pair of headphones, but DJ Marky, Alibi, and Charli Brix have joined forces to deliver one of those D&B masterpieces in scintillating fashion.

I was doing some Wim Hof breathing when the idea struck me to blend it with drum and bass. That’s how this track was born. It’s about the inner journey of a golden retriever. Hope you enjoy it!

Nu:Tone is a name that automatically populates in a seasoned drum & bass brain upon hearing the words Hospital Records. But Nu:Tone’s first drum and bass release was actually put out in 2001 on John B’s label Beta Recordings after the pair became friends and established the local club night ‘Substance’ in Durham.  On returning to his hometown Cambridge, Nu:Tone met a squad of like-minded musical mates and eventually released the ‘Future Sound of Cambridge’ EP on Hospital in 2004.

With five solo studio albums to boast as well as a wealth of singles, and EP’s, Nu:Tone’s tracks can always be heard across dancefloors and the festival circuit. From his first studio album “Brave Nu World” to third studio album “Words and Pictures” (which was perhaps his most ambitious project) and all before, in-between and after, Nu:Tone’s output always gleans the full support of the wider dance music community’s biggest tastemakers from Annie Mac and Rene La Vice to Toddla T and David Rodigan. Nu:Tone regularly tours Europe, USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, confirming his global appeal. 

Nu:Tone can also be heard as part of other collaborative projects, like Nu:Logic, the Hospital Records signed sibling duo of him and Logistics. Or as part of Danism, under which he releases house with great success. Danism’s track “No Limits’ reached number one on the Traxsource chart in 2019 and received DJ support from house royalty Louie Vega, Danny Krivit and Todd Terry. 

Having a keen ear for other people’s music is something that we see from Nu:Tone in a multitude of projects. While working for Hospital as part of the A&R team, he also continues to work as a mastering engineer for Innerground, Spearhead and Soulvent Records. He fondly states an annual highlight for him is the stage he curates with Logistics at Sardinia’s famous Sun & Bass festival each year, and it’s clearly something he enjoys as he’s been back every year since 2003 (except one year when his eldest was born!)
