Liquid funk drum & bass legend Makoto is back with his new single ‘Maybe We’ll Make It (feat. Mark Force & Archaik)’, a stellar 174BPM anthem packed with crisp breaks and R&B infused vocals. In 2021, Makoto unleashed his soul-igniting ‘What You Need’ EP, a 5-track beauty with feisty amen breaks, rolling drum work and exciting collaborations alongside Missing, Danny Wheeler, [KSR], Vonné and DJ Marky. He also put the pedal to the metal with two liquid delights on the highly acclaimed ‘Forza Horizon 5: Hospital Soundtrack’  - ‘Another Star’, and ‘Trial Mountain’ (feat. Karina Ramage), with fellow label-mate Mitekiss. He’s not stopping there either - keep an eye out for his next exciting album project coming soon!

‘Maybe We’ll Make It’ is a reflection of Makoto’s flawless ability to blend genres as he draws upon his musical influences, spanning jazz, jungle and soul. The Japanese-born producer provides a deep sub-bass, vigorous drums and his signature rolling amen break that brings old school drum & bass nostalgia into 2022 as he teams up with jungle drum & bass veteran Mark Force. This isn’t the first time the pair have linked up, with the two of them also collaborating on Makoto’s ‘Tomodachi Sessions’ album in 2019. Archaik’s harmonious vocals glide over Makoto & Mark Force’s sublime production as the catchy and hopeful lyrics are gleaming with positivity and soul.

Makoto continues to pave the way as a true drum & bass pioneer cemented by his immaculate back catalogue which spans releases on LTJ Bukem’s Good Looking Records, his own label Human Elements, Liquicity, and of course, Hospital Records. His remarkable productions have seen him garner radio support from Sarah Story, René LaVice and Fred V, as well as being a DJ favourite for the likes of Fabio, Bryan Gee, Flava D, London Elektricity and more.

The long awaited 'Detroit Haze EP' by Submorphics will soon be released on The North Quarter. With lazy Rare Groove aesthetics, the project sees the well-travelled producer showcase his Detroit heritage to the fullest. Although Submorphics is an artist known throughout the Drum and Bass industry for his consistency in both style and quality, Detroit Haze cements his true musical coming of age. Having earned his stripes in the USA as both a producer and esteemed DJ, he now takes the spotlight as an authentic man of music. It's only logical that his momentum is captured on Lenzman’s The North Quarter, a record label which values real heart for music and craftsmanship above the so-called flavour of the month.

Having first come to prominence in 1999 when he was signed to LTJ Bukem’s Good Looking label, Makoto has steadily, consistently carved out his own groove in the world of Drum and Bass, with his trademark expansive jazz and soul-inflected workouts garnering critical praise from all corners. Having worked with a veritable who’s who of the scene, with releases on Zinc’s Bingo Beats, Fabio’s Creative Source, Hospital Records and numerous collaborations with DJ Marky, Makoto now releases his first EP on Apollo records.
