PROLIX & METH - NEXT LEVEL - CRISSY CRISS SHOW EXCLUSIVE

Legion & Logam - Solace 

Few artists can boast the same creative scope as Legion & Logam. Owning a back catalogue of melodic rollers which exemplify their lasting impression, the trio’s technicality often goes unrivalled. 
It’s unsurprising then, that Program stepped up and showcased this exciting and pivotal release. For anyone unaware of their masterful production style, the artists have introduced themselves in two halves. And both tracks are delicately woven, sonic blasts to the aural senses.  
The ride begins with ‘House of Cards’, tightly coiling its energy like a spring and snapping under its audible weight. Firmly compact with booming drum loops sat defiantly amongst the scratch, snap and skit of percussion, the two elements juxtapose flawlessly. The ethereal arpeggio of piano notes leads into the soulful, wispy vocal of Adam Wright, and it adds a delicacy to the record which only emphasises its detail. Nevertheless, it still holds an intimidating depth which begins to surge with power between each layer. Every break subdues your synapses into submission, as they struggle to intercept the icy allure that this track manifests. 
Next up is ‘Solace’, a power house of emotion conveyed with each atmospheric pad succession. The melody weaves back and forth through a pumping-bassline, skipping momentarily, before driving the track forward and pulling every sound into a wave of command. The more humanistic elements are brought to the surface, despite being quickly submerged, ghost-like against its musicality. Relentless, dark and brooding, but full of clarity and sentiment, this record consummates a style which the producers are renowned for. 
With an obvious nod to the liquid vibe prevalent throughout the dnb community, but turning it into something more distinct and imposing, this was the perfect project for both the imprint and the artists. 
So once again…. it’s time to get with the Program!

Since Technique first brought this Aussie producer to the world's attention, he's been unstoppable. His tracks have been dropped on Kiss, Radio 1, 1Xtra and wherever else good bass is purveyed to discerning listeners. He's been DJing alongside names like Matrix & Futurebound, Sigma and Drumsound & Bassline Smith. And as if that wasn't enough, he's back to increase the levels even further.

“Backfire” opens up into immediate action-flick energy, delivering epic orchestral tension backed with an insistent synthetic pulse. Spectrem melds finely-manipulated real-instrument samples with heavyweight programmed sounds to create an ultra-modern cinematic blockbuster of a tune. All that underpinned with barb-sharp, tightly-woven beats delivers a piece of work that's going to light up sets at any time of night.

Then we're on the “Run”. This is a hands-in-the-air callback to the nineties, showing that Spectrem knows, understands and respects the roots of this music. With a percussion line that'll have heads playing Spot the Break, and a vocal hook that's pure euphoria, this is no-compromise jungle music. Providing a balance between dancefloor toughness in the low end and soulful sparkle in the melodies, this is one to draw for when its time to transition between styles.

You've already been warned that Spectrem is on the rise, and now this release is here to confirm it. So, in case you missed it, now it's time to wake up and turn your focus towards Perth, Australia, where this guy has more artillery locked, loaded and aimed to blow your speaker box.

HYQXYZ - Repeaters [KKREC018]

DJ and Drum and Bass producer Matthew McKinney (a.k.a. OSCILL8R) combines the grit of his native Alabama with his advanced education in music to create tunes that are raw and defined. Heavily influenced by percussion, with an early stint as a standout in his high school's drum line, Matthew took his passion in another direction, honing his skills at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in music with a concentration in music technology. Not content to rest on those accomplishments, he took things further, earning a Master’s of Science in Music Technology from Indiana University - Purdue University at Indianapolis. He is currently adjunct professor of Music Technology and head of recording and production in the department of music at the University of Montevallo.

OSCILL8R's roots in Drum and Bass began at the first exposure to the sound in the late 1990s. His first release on Death Brigade Records, Jigsaw (alongside collaborators TitanZERO), is a smashing stomper that made waves in the under-ground community long before it was signed.

One of OSCILL8R's previous ventures was CULTure, a production team started with Roger (Iris; M.I.A. Collective - ATL, GA). CULTure's first release, Killer, was picked up by Combat Records U.S.A. and is available at most digital audio outlets online. In mid-2013 he was invited to represent 1200 Hustle, a premier DJ collective based out of Atlanta, GA. 1200 Hustle consists of members from all across the globe such as Dubnostics, Calvertron, Joust, Nextakin, Ployd, Casper, Stranger Candy, Jay Balance, The Beat Perverts, Neglect, Styles & Complete, Phil K Swift, D.O.H., and Otter, to just name a few. For a full roster of 1200 Hustle DJs and MCs, visit https://www.facebook.com/groups/1200HustleMob/. OSCILL8R has also played alongside greats such as Dieselboy, Dara, AK1200, Danny the Wildchild, Gein, Atlantic Connection, Mumblz, DJ Lord, Aphrodite, and Tester, as well as many others. 

OSCILL8R currently hosts a weekly radio show, Future Shock Radio, on UK based web and FM radio station BassbreakzFM.com. Future Shock Radio airs every Tuesday from 4:00 - 6:00 pm CST on www.bassbreakzfm.com and features live mixing from OSCILL8R (drum and bass) and wife Kaotik Grace (multi-genre).
