Miami Music Week: THE most important gathering in dance music since time began. An essential sun-kissed calendar date for artists, industry influencers and enthusiasts alike... Whatever your genre persuasion, if you're serious about the dance then Miami welcomes with you open arms. David Beckham's not the only Brit taking over Miami this winter!

Ram Records have represented at this annual meeting of musical minds since day one. Cutting through dance music's ever-changing fads and flavours with their demonstrative D&B message, they have achieved a rock-solid standing as the most important drum & bass event there. With over a thousand parties happening throughout the event -- from VIP pool parties to the epic multi-arena beast Ultra -- Ram have worked hard to create this sterling reputation. 

This year will be no exception: the label have secured another session at Mekka. One of Downtown Miami's most desired venues, it will be home to RAMiami with a line-up that reads like a who's who in D&B: Andy C, Ed Rush & Optical, Wilkinson, Loadstar, Rene LaVice and Delta Heavy.

To celebrate, they've curated 'RAMiami 2014'. Just like their Mekka mission, it's an all-star cast that represents the broadest scope and most vibrant colour of drum & bass. It's yet another reminder of how extensive and timeless Ram's repertoire truly is.  

Showcasing drum & bass's unique melting pot with depth and clarity, every possible style can be enjoyed on 'RAMiami 2014': The spine-melting euphoria of Loadstar's 'BLVD'. The dreamy melodic textures of Culture Shock's 'Ohrwurm'. The grizzle-bass badness of Noisia's 'Façade VIP'. The ludicrous rudeness of Roni Size's 'Hotness' remix. The organic instrumentation of Sub Focus's 'Flamenco'. The savage steel drum  of Moving Fusion's 'Chilli Pepper'... The list goes on.

No Ram album is complete without exclusives, too. And amongst this explorative 16 track tale you'll find three next-level specials that are unavailable anywhere else. Recent Drum&BassArena Artist Of The Week Salaryman dusts his jazz piano and slinky double bass off for 'My Future'. Mob Tactics, meanwhile, deliver the dark and devious 'Joe Mangle'. Boasting multi-faceted bass textures and a switch-flipping dynamic on the drop, it's one of the duo's best tunes to date. The third exclusive comes from Bluescreens. Last spotted on Ram's 'RAMsterdam 2013' album, here we find them developing their full-throttle audio adventure 'Strike One' with a spectacular second part. Flexing a muscular bassline and raw, pummelling drums, it's a fittingly dramatic finale to yet another exciting, extensive Ram collection.  

Miami wouldn't be the same without Ram's heavyweight presence. Both their Mekka line-up and this collection of exclusives and timeless classics show exactly why.

DC Breaks
1: Lock In 2: Shakedown  

Unstoppable: that's the only way to describe DC Breaks right now. 

2013 was an insanely big year for DC Breaks outings on Ram Records as the likes of 'Swag' dominated the Beatport number one for nine weeks and other heavyweight cuts scored support from DJs in every corner and continent. 

2014 looks set to continue the onslaught. And it starts right here with 'Lock In / Shakedown', a dynamite double header designed purely for total dancefloor obliteration. Get to know:

'Lock In' kicks off with serious intent: a sharp, clipped riff and trembling, emotive pads set the dramatic scene before we're hurled into a thick bass fray. The low end roars and stretches as DC Breaks trademark drum science surges through the mix. And with additional breakbeats peppering the fills with chop-slapping cymbal splashes and chest-pressing double-kicks, an intense dynamic is maintained throughout. Handle with care... This one's dangerous.

'Shakedown' upholds the Bristol/London duo's menacing message as we're instantly sucker-punched with nagging middy notes, subtle bass tears and a pensive build-up. Before we know it, we're surrounded in a swarm of basses, each one soaring and sneering, buzzing and biting, vying for our full focus. As a cool tape-stop effect to introduce us to the breakdown, the rebuild and second drop live up to the track title in every way: this is guaranteed to shake your dancefloor so hard it's pretty much criminal. 

Two huge cuts from one truly unstoppable act. DC Breaks are genuinely smashing it right now. And they're smashing it strictly on Ram Records.

Bootleg

Kahn - Abbatoir (Depressed Teenager Bootleg Remix)

With ADE looming on the horizon, it only seemed apt for Ram to yet again provide the perfect drum and bass entrée for Europe’s premium dance event. Set to bring another stellar line up from their roster, this compilation packed full of exclusives helps to epitomise the imprint’s legacy within dance music. Including brand new cuts, demonstrating the Ram’s longevity, this album plays homage to two decades of output. 

Leading you deeper into the dark side of 2015, this year’s Ramsterdam compilation not only pedestals the artists who’ve made such a titanic impact throughout the last ten months, but also the emerging talent from sister label Program and Ram’s newest signees. Whether it’s the old school, growling riddim from Aggressor Bunx, or Calyx & TeeBee’s tell-tale, trembling bassline, each track gives the album a unique vantage point.

Featuring on the collosal track listing is Delta Heavy; an exclusive which relays their elevating, pumping composition, it’s a dancefloor banger sure to detonate any crowd. And Frankee also makes a welcomed return, following the release of his anticipated single ‘Downtown’. ‘Raptor’ is unforgiving, snapped up by different animalistic samples and stridently aggressive – pedestalling Frankee’s unforgiving production standards.

On a totally different vibe, Freek is back with ‘Born Different’, a clanking yet powerful number, one which gears up into LFO-lead chaos with snapping percussion between each break. Brand new music from production outfits Teddy Killerz and Mind Vortex also make a very valuable addition, proving their unbridled talent, with merciless yet complex records that are fierce and gagging to be let loose on Amsterdam’s clubs. 
 
Two of this year’s most resounding tracks from the Ram camp, Bensley’s ‘Aftermath’ and Gerra & Stone’s ‘L.I.E.S.’ have also received revamps, providing two anticipated VIPs already igniting sets worldwide. Loadstar also deliver the goods; brand new heavy-hitter ‘Dune’ demonstrates exactly why they’ve become such revered names across the genre.

So, here’s to another Amsterdam Dance Event. One with a soundtrack provided by one of the most enduring labels, and stellar rosters, that dance music has played host to. And with Ram also holding a night this October, from first listen onwards prepare to be immerse yourself in Ram’s vast musical environment.
