Club Glow with Denham Audio & Baby T   - 26 April 2022

Coming through with an almighty switch up from our usual UKG bits this week is the people’s favourite and master of all styles @etches828 📝 💜

Etch has provided an early 2000’s vinyl drum & bass mix that is so fuckin nostalgic, it took us on an emotional journey through young adolescent memories. Much like Etch, we all grew up on dnb and will always adore these sounds. The SOLITUDE crew are all junglists at heart yanno. This era of dnb up until about 2012 was the limewire sourced, background music to nuff gaming sessions with some sorta energy drink in hand… If that sounds familiar this one is for you. If not, check it anyway cos this selection and this calibre of artists is proper historical. 

Etch provided us with an insight to this one: “This mix is essentially my soundtrack to playing counter-strike online in 2004 with my mates, which may seem alarming because the tracks are fucking dirty slammers, but this along with 
everything that matched it’s intensity is what we banged. 

By the time we got fake ID’s and were out raving things got a bit more slick & romantic, but I always have hours of time for bash yer head in DnB and some borderline Breakcore like this.

I think with the UK music scene’s fetishization of everything that makes it feel like it has its own identity – it needs to look left and right and realise this was here the whole time. (Apologies to any clicks n pops from knackered/poorly looked after records, also I shall not take the whole blame, this era of DnB had some TERRIBLE presses, like wtf, shit is like a circle of paper)”

You can catch Etch at a bunch of shows this year (probably not music like this, but he’ll try slip a lil’ bit in if poss) 

Some highlights include: Drumskull Presents (@drumskull_must_die) at @theglovethatfits in South Ldn on 6th May

He’ll also be thwacking the stage with heroes & legends @2_bad_mice at @gottwood festival in June 

And lastly for the 🇦🇺 gang, he should be heading back to Australia at the 
end of this year. Which in his words “will be glorious because I played some of my funnest shows of the decade in that dusty ol’ love island”

DJ PERSUASION - DANNY [UMOTB001]

10" VINYL DUBPLATE ONLY

LIMITED TO 35 COPIES

A1. DJ PERSUASION - DANNY
B1. DJ PERSUASION - DANNY (DIGITAL REMIX)

Ulterior Motive inaugurate their Black Label series with a fresh cut from DJ Persuasion, paired with a mind-bending remix from the mighty Digital (Function Records).

Inspired by one of the best-loved horror movies of all time, Danny ‘25 picks up where countless other hardcore renditions which sample the horror genre have left off. The lore surrounding the film which the track is based on is something of a maze in itself. Persuasion digs deep into the legacy of the film and its offshoots to provide a fitting tribute set to bulldozer bass and lightning drums.

Function Records’ owner Digital provides the remix on the flip. Digital should need no introduction — he’s been behind some of the best-loved drum & bass tracks of all time: tunes like Deadline, Down Under, and Phantom Force alongside Duncan Busto aka Spirit, who sadly passed away.
Digital rolls it out in his time-honoured fashion and takes the levels of fear and dancefloor destruction up a notch.

Hearing is believing.
