We are very proud to welcome Djrum to the Samurai labels with a single that marks a more musically open minded approach Red Seal will take from 2015 onwards. Already debuted by Mary Anne Hobbs on BBC 6 Music Recommends and featured in Synkro's mixes for Boiler Room and iD Mag, this 12" is garnering serious interest from the wider electronic community. 

Djrum is an artist we have admired for some time and embodies the individual approach we respect in electronic music artists. An incredible DJ as well as producer, Djrum exists in his own unique musical universe with loose ties to many genre's, but giving the majority of his music a classification often proves futile. Such is the case with his Samurai debut. A pair of sprawling, epic musical moodswings, both sides enchant with their multi layered glide. 

DJ Support from Giles Peterson, Mary Anne Hobbs, Om Unit, Mark Pritchard, Fracture, Stray, Lynx, BOP, John B and more.

Djrum - What I Was Doing When I Was Doing What I Was Doing

Its been all change at Smokin Sessions HQ of late with new signing Lewis B kicking up quite a storm. And just when you thought it was safe to sink in to your Smokin Sessions new comfort zone, we would like to present another new talent that goes by the name of DJ Rum. His music is deep and jazzy influenced with a sprinkle of Techno added to the mix to give this bright young spark an absolute unique and fresh flavor that we have been very inspired by. Plead with me is our favorite of the 2 tracks here.
It is rare to get a track at 8 minutes and you don’t want to flick through, but DJ Rum has really managed to keep it interesting throughout the journey of this track.”Emerald” is also just as interesting to hear with a darker edge.

Release date is planned for early June.

These tracks are out-takes from my first alum Seven Lies. Those familiar with my music will know that I love a coda. A coda is a passage at the end of a piece of music that brings it to a conclusion. I often use a coda as a way of framing the piece in a slightly different context than it would otherwise end. Like a musical aftertaste. When I was working on Seven Lies I made codas for several tracks but I was never completely happy with these two so they didn't make it on to the album.

As I work on my second album I have been looking back at the process I went through for my first alum and remembered these outtakes. They're not so bad after all. Perhaps they are worth airing to the world. I hope you enjoy them, or at least find them an interesting insight into the workings behind the music.

"I’ve been a fan of Djrum for some time since hearing some of his early mixes and having seen him play out in his effortlessly interesting and bold style many times with the same philosophy applied in his tunes I had always hoped to collab with him. We managed to pull “Ruins” out of the hat and I’ve been waiting a while to reveal this mad mixture of hardcore and lo fi slow-mo energy  to the world. It’s a perfect fit for this amazing compilation of music, which I can’t wait to share with you all this coming September!"
- Om Unit

Fresh from a series of artist-led 12"s, Om Unit's Cosmic Bridge label returns with 'Dark Matter', its first compilation since 2017's 'Cosmology Selections'. Collected in a triple vinyl LP / digital formats, the release offers a fresh snapshot of the exciting possibilities and experiments happening at the intersection of hip-hop, jungle and bass music; a hybrid sound the label has pioneered since its first release eight years ago. 

Across 14 tracks, 'Dark Matter' showcases Cosmic Bridge's growing global roster of artists: Moresounds, Danny Scrilla, Proc Fiskal, Margari's Kid, Oliver Yorke, J:Kenzo, TMSV, vromm, alongside new faces Samba and Rude Operator, and perennial favorites Es.tereo, Synkro and Djrum, the latter two in collaboration with label head Om Unit. 

Stylistically the compilation covers a broad range, and gives listeners the space to digest it all with a running time of 75 minutes. There are stripped-down, meditative rollers such as TMSV's flute-led 'Ominous', the bass hypnosis of Danny Scrilla's 'Sacred Waters', and Samba's snappy, booming remix of Om Unit's 'The Lake'. The timeless energy of jungle is channeled in Proc Fiskal's 'Death', a percussive, bouncy number, while Moresounds plays with filters (and your mind) as he refines a less-is-more take of classic themes on 'Watating'. J:Kenzo highlights the music's Jamaican roots on 'Dub For Bashenga'; a tough, pounding cut that goes straight for the chest and which finds its counterpoint in Rude Operator's 'Broken Sky'. 

For those who like more expansive, cinematic approaches there are epic waves of drums, slick editing and euphoria in Es.tereo's 'Floating Point' and Vromm's 'Decentralized', while Oliver Yorke's 'Treasured' and Margari's Kid's 'Challenger' squeeze soul from colder sound palettes and tight breakbeats. 

Om Unit's two collaborations, 'Reflections' with Synkro and 'Ruins' with Djrum, reflect the compilation's ambitions and breadth. The former is a delicate, uplifting roller that sets you up for the dark rumblings, freeform stylings and frenetic rhythms of the latter. The compilation ends with a track that arguably stands tall on its own, Crypticz's 'Chrysalis' feat. Amy Kisnorbo; an 11-minute epic that plays out like a love letter to the magic of breakbeat science, dub technology and human creativity. 

Dark Matter is a finely crafted statement of intent from Cosmic Bridge and Om Unit, shunning easy self-congratulation for a dive into the musical potentials and connections of a sound that is now an established part of the global bass music vocabulary.

Previewing the latest release from his debut album, we introduce Djrum aka Felix Manuel. Hailing from 2nd Drop label, the producer originally made his name after releasing critically adored 12” singles with One the Edge and Smokin Sessions labels. 

From his new album entitled ‘Seven Lies’ we bring you a touch of Friday fever with the most club orientated track from the album, Arcana (Do I Need You). Remember it is pronounced - Drum (coming from DJ Rum) and if you can't move to the beat, this isn't the track for you.
