Run Tingz Digital presents "The Best of 2013" - January 27th 2014

A new year… There’s no better time for reflection: A chance to look back before you look forward. This is exactly what’s happening at the Run Tingz HQ. Bristol’s most exciting creative Junglist hub has studied their conquests of 2013 to present a walloping 10 track showcase of their best year to date. 

And we mean best year: a new partnership with the stately distribution kings ST Holdings, legendary performances at Bestival and Boomtown Fair and a momentous warm up for Goldie at Glastonbury. New signings, massive EPs, and plenty more… Run Tingz have been a veritable tour de force on all corners of the dance floor throughout the year. 

And the label is at the heart of operations: Fuelling all discerning Drum & Bass and Jungle DJs’ selections with rock solid specials and impeccable originals from their ever-growing roster of talented producers and vocalists, Run Tingz distinctive tactics have received praise from across the board. From Aries & Gold’s instant sing-along sound system smasher ‘My Sound’ to Dossa’s skank-packed funk jam ‘Rock a Dub’ via YT’s heartfelt ode to the remedy of roots ‘Reggae Music’, every Run Tingz Digital release is delivered with passion and raw power. 

All these examples are included on this impeccable ‘Best of’ 2013 collection plus a whole load more. New additions to the catalogue include the previously unreleased remix of ‘Informer’ by the one and only Marcus Visionary and two more exclusive rubs: both Run Tingz Cru remixes of Blak Twang’s ‘Badda Dan Dat’ and Dreadsquad’s ‘Full Time’, both highly sought after and never released on the label before… Until now!

Naturally there’s no point in looking back unless you’re staring down the barrel of the future with some equally potent plans. Needless to say the Run Tingz fam plan to build on their solid successes and make 2014 even bigger and better.

January 2013...

Igniting 2013 with some serious skankology, Bristol’s Run Tingz Cru deliver one of their biggest releases to date… 

With their A&R skills sharpened and set to stun, Run Tingz quickly recognised the Drum & Bass and Jungle potential in Capitol 1212’s iconic ‘Don Man Sound’ and have revisioned it with two of their trademark dancefloor-driven rubs. 

First up, the Run Tingz Jungle remix: No genre complements Tenor Fly’s toasting more than Jungle, and this is verified proof: kicking off with a snatch of snappy beat-driven bars, nothing can prepare you for the dubby skank sonics that lay in wait. Bumping and grinding with energy and perfect pace, it pays respect to Tenor’s emphatic vocals while making the tune totally their own.

Not content with one massive speaker-shattering reversion, Run Tingz have also served up a Dirty remix for the bass heads among us. Opening with icy pads, it’s an instant stepback to the golden age of rave. Then, just as you’ve called up every surviving member of your whistle crew, in comes the wasp-like contemporary bassline, sizzling with 50 shades of menace. As elements old and new fuse with fury, this just keeps on giving. 

Fans of the Capitol 1212 swagger-soaked party joint, originally released in 2010, are also treated to a re-mastered version fresh for the New Year. Rolling on a heavy hip-hop break, the track oozes party flare, gradually building with a well-crafted horn refrain and a lyrical elasticity that conjures memories of Tenor’s trailblazing heritage work with the Freestylers in the late 90s. It’s the ultimate buzz cut fuelled and fronted by one of the most distinctive mic maestros in the game, drop this at any gathering and you’re guaranteed glorious vibes.

Cementing Run Tingz reputation as true Jungle connoisseurs, the South West sound scientists are about to give 2013 a dancefloor schooling. ‘Don Man Sound’ is the ultimate statement of intent. Recognise!    


Don Man Sound (feat. Tenor Fly)

Capitol 1212 & Tenor Fly - Don Man Sound (Run Tingz Cru Dirty Remix)

Available worldwide on the 25th of February 2013... Hot on the heels of Capitol 1212’s swagger-packed party piece ‘Don Man Sound’, Bristol’s top rankin junglist crew Run Tingz deliver a weapon of mass destruction that’s primed for the ultimate soundclash challenges. 

Big up Aries & Gold, two of Birmingham’s most respected producers. The dust has barely settled from last year’s buzz-cut with David Boomah and Serocee on V Recordings and they’re back, firing a 25 gun badboy salute that will guarantee maximum dancefloor participation. 

‘My Sound’ will instantly trigger cake-sized grins the second the distinctive horn refrain from Sister Nancy’s ‘Bam Bam’ ripples through the speakers. Then, before any sense of familiarity sets in, Aries & Gold’s trademark razor-sharp beats ignite, as do the spitfire toasting talents of two legendary mic-monsters: Cowboy Ras Ranger and 2Nice. No strangers to soundclash culture, Ras and 2Nice go toe-to-toe with harmony and spirit, vibing off each other with both gutsy vigour and respect for the wild riddims imposed by Aries & Gold.

With two basslines and a toxic sub weaved tightly together, mirroring the duality of Ras and 2Nice, Aries & Gold’s creation fires with every inch of jungle heritage but sparkles with breath-taking contemporary production values. Throw in a series of rusty rattling breakbeats and you’ve got yourself a bona fide soundclash banger.

Remix-wise the Run Tingz Cru have stepped up to provide their own touch. Paying complete respect to the original, the groove, vibe, vocals and horn hook remain intact while a new bassline and more stripped back breakbeats make their play amidst the mix. Ten per cent less jungle, ten per cent more drum & bass, it’s the perfect complement to the applaud-worthy work of Aries & Gold. 

A smouldering slab of jungle from three of the UK’s most exciting producers… And one of the UK’s most exciting bass labels. Choose your soundclash battles well people. Go in, go hard, go for ‘My Sound’ and reap some serious dancefloor rewards.

The summer is nearly here and tingz are heating up! Not weather-wise (come on, this is the UK!) but at the Run Tingz Bristol HQ. 

Having blazed into 2013 with distinction – four massive releases, three new label signees, parties across the UK, an exclusive signing to the on-point Boom agency – the Cru now pull the biggest rewind of their lives and take us on a trip back to 2010/11 with their most comprehensive dispatch to date… 

With over three years of unique contemporary Jungle locked up in the bullet proof Run Tingz vault, they thought it high time they revisited the first four releases and the tracks that started their epic journey. Giving the parts to a select team of all-star remixers, the result is a sun-soaked package of seismic soundclash proportions.

‘Jungle Champion’ leads. Run Tingz debut label release, they’ve given new signing J.Man the duties and he’s done them justice. Giving Blackout’s throaty patter centre stage on the well known ‘Real Rock” riddim, J strips the vibe back to a classic Jungle sub n’ skank approach giving it an instant timeless vibe.

Serial Killaz follow. Taking the Run Tingz anthem ‘Born Inna Babylon’ to a much deeper pasture with a softer swing and more emphasis on the iconic horn riff, once again they show why they’re the remixer of choice for many of the Jungle scene’s influential figures. Whaooooh!

Up next, Northern Lights’ take on the infamous ‘Informer’, a track so naughty they got Albert Square’s finest to front the video. With playful treatment of the Golden Hen, Steppa and Kitcha lull you into a false sense of security. Then BANG: when that bass drops, you’ll know all about it!

‘Sweet Sunshine’, meanwhile, has been expertly reworked another recent signing, Dossa. Complementing the sunny-side vibes of the original while adding his own party twist, the bass bubbles with a distinctive fuzzy, buzzy distorted funk that just won’t quit. 

Tenerife-based Ricky Tuff closes the show with his remix of ‘I Got Love’. Warming the blend with deeper subs, skippier riddim work and punctual bass, it’s yet another fine complement to the stunning vibes of the original and introduces the last in the hat trick of signings in true style.

Five key cuts that have helped shape the distinctive Run Tingz sound. Five fully charged festival shakers, primed and ready for sunny season and beyond. The summer is nearly here and our playlists are heating up!
