Drum & bass doesn’t get more soulful than when Makoto is at the controls, and he’s upped the bar yet again with his highly anticipated ‘Spread Love (feat. Pete Simpson)’ cover, which is finally seeing the light of day alongside the B-side and atmospheric masterpiece ‘Contact’. Hailing legendary status as a founding member of the drum & bass culture in his home city of Tokyo, Japan, Hospital Records proudly present the latest hit release from Makoto.

Written by Garry Glenn and originally performed by Al Hudson & The Soul Partners in the 1970s, Lenny Fontana then covered the upbeat classic in 1999 and introduced it to the world of dance music with his house rendition. The infamous Nu:Tone remix came in 2010, and eleven years later Makoto and Pete Simpson have stepped up to offer their euphoric cover as they beautifully tie together all of the aforementioned versions into a feel-good future classic that will send ripples throughout the drum & bass community for generations to come. With a complete recreation of the entire instrumentation including freshly recorded strings, guitars, backing vocals and Pete Simpson tearing up the lead vocal, Makoto’s 2021 version is a truly phenomenal body of work which has been crafted with the utmost precision and delicacy. This release comes armed with both the original and extended versions.

Ethereal in vibe and floaty in nature, ‘Contact’ is the musical embodiment which portrays Makoto’s unfathomed ability to weave together an array of sounds and styles that lay together perfectly. Transfixing bongo loops, old-school rave inspired vocal cuts and pads so uplifting they’ll transport you to cloud nine are infused amongst splashy amen breaks and a sinister modulated reese bassline. 

With ‘Spread Love’ already garnering support from pinnacle figures including DJ Marky and Nu:Tone, Makoto’s contribution to the world of drum & bass is second to none. The caliber of his music has turned the heads of tastemakers since the days of LTJ Bukem’s Good Looking Records, not forgetting to mention the output of his very own Human Elements imprint. With a discography packed with countless liquid-soul classics including ‘Golden Girl’ featuring MC Conrad as well as two albums under his belt on Hospital, ‘Spread Love / Contact’ is a stellar addition to Makoto’s flawless discography.

I wanna tell you I don't love you, tell you that we're through,
but when I close my eyes the only one I see is you,
and though I try to hide, the way I feel inside, I finally realise, my love will never die,
coz baby you were made for me,
and its tearing me apart.

META006 Sees <a href="https://soundcloud.com/lenzman" target="_blank">Lenzman</a> return in true style with the beautifully crafted “Empty Promise” 

Featuring his now renowned and revered signature future soul sound, “Empty Promise” glistens with that <a href="https://soundcloud.com/lenzman" target="_blank">Lenzman</a> quality to provide a result that is nothing short of stunning. Reaching deep inside with its unique blend of lush pads and subtle chords, layered in perfect balance above a bass line intricately crafted with <a href="https://soundcloud.com/lenzman" target="_blank">Lenzman</a>'s own pinpoint blend of Sub and mid bass harmonics to provide the perfect emotionally charged backdrop for the soothingly stirring, silk smooth lead vocal. Music for the heart and music for the soul.

In true compliment the flipside sees <a href="https://soundcloud.com/makoto-humanelements" target="_blank">Makoto</a> go in to deliver his own interpretation of <a href="https://soundcloud.com/lenzman" target="_blank">Lenzman</a>’s hugely successful Broken Dreams. The main elements still ever present from the original (as they should be when the source material is this good!) <a href="https://soundcloud.com/makoto-humanelements" target="_blank">Makoto</a> switches things up leading with a rising synth line and cleverly delayed and verb’d vocal alongside a heavy helping of rolling drums to keep things moving nicely, while all importantly maintaining all of the essence that made the original as amazing as it was.
