Those drifting pads are amazing. Really reminds me of that late 90s Good Looking era - great tune mate!

Having established himself as a talented, Jungle-influenced artist, Sam Binary is to appear on The North Quarter with his first extended project on the label. Collaborating with fellow producer Deviant on three tracks and spanning multiple tempos, the EP stays rooted in a common theme: Sam Binary’s love letter to 90s Intelligent Jungle. 

  Using modern techniques and production styles combined with classic hardware such as the E5000 Ultra sampler and the Mackie CR1604-VLZ mixing desk, the Bristol producer has created a unique, 90s-reminiscent sound. The result is bundled in a 7-track EP, equally suited for the dance floor as it is for listening at home.

“This release is really a love letter to 90s Intelligent Jungle and the Liquid Funk that emerged after it in the 2000s, paying homage to the music that inspired me to originally start producing nearly a decade ago”, Sam Binary explains. ‘Reality Slip’ will be released August 19th on The North Quarter.

For over a decade, Mako has been a distinctive presence, both as an individual and through his music, a talent we’ve proudly showcased at Metalheadz.

This September, we are honoured to release his third album on the label, and his second solo endeavour, which serves as a seamless continuation of his earlier work. His 2020 album, ‘Oeuvre’, represented years of dedication and refined production, solidifying Mako's esteemed place within the Metalheadz family.

Now, four years later, we’re thrilled to present ‘Oeuvre – Part 2’. This 12-track album is a celebration of Mako’s deep passion for music, while also reflecting his sometimes disillusioned views on a modern era that often seems to pass us by. In a world where individuality can struggle to shine amidst an overwhelming flood of content, Mako’s superior production stands out as a beacon, demanding not just recognition, but active listening.

Mako’s commitment to his musical community is evident throughout the album, with contributions from long-time collaborators Fields, Hydro, Villem, and Mikal, each bringing their unique expertise to the project. The album also features a special collaboration with the late Marcus Intalex, a friendship that blossomed in the years before Marcus’ untimely passing and one that continues to bear fruit.

Diving into the heart of the album reveals Mako’s charm as a producer: from the captivating vocals in ‘Feed You’, the sleek homage to techstep in "Suspension’, to the pure dancefloor energy of ‘Direct Source’, a track long favoured by Goldie. As expected, Mako also delivers deeper, more contemplative pieces like the album’s opener ‘True Expression’ and the graceful melodies of ‘Overshare’.

Mako - TMI

Liquid V proudly presents the launch of its brand-new series, Signature Sounds. This exciting project is dedicated to showcasing the finest underground liquid drum and bass, staying true to the roots that have defined the label since its inception. Handpicked by label boss Bryan Gee, each track in this series celebrates the original funk and soul-infused liquid sound, blending nods to the past with forward-thinking production.

The first volume of Signature Sounds features four diverse yet cohesive tracks that encapsulate the spirit of Liquid V. Opening with "Leap Of Faith" by Philth and Luke Truth, listeners are treated to a soul-drenched vocal roller that marks the duo’s return to the label. Following this is Bluemode's "No Matter," a track that has caught Bryan's ear with its funk and disco-tinged flair. Bluemode, a fresh face on the scene, brings a classic yet invigorating energy.

The EP continues with "When I Was Young" by A-Audio, a dynamic duo that includes Liquid D&B royalty, DJ Addiction. This track is a dancefloor roller packed with all the funk and energy that have become synonymous with the Liquid V sound. Rounding off the release is Motiv’s "Walkin' Jazz," a beautiful, timeless piece filled with piano jazz that follows up on his recent acclaimed EP on the label. 

Liquid V has been at the forefront of the liquid drum and bass scene for over 20 years. Since its inception, the label has ridden the waves of trends and fashions, consistently delivering 100% organic, soul-fused, and funk-filled music. The term ‘liquid’ has evolved over the years, taking on different meanings for different people, but at its core, Liquid V has always been about music produced from the heart. The label’s sound spans a diverse range, from rare groove and disco-influenced tracks to atmospheric rollers and deeper, darker minimal styles.

This new series, Signature Sounds, follows in the footsteps of the highly successful Liquid V Club Sessions, which first exploded onto the scene in 2005, featuring tracks from some of the biggest names in the genre such as Roni Size, DJ Fresh, Calibre, and dBridge. The Club Sessions were a landmark project that launched the Liquid V vision to the world, and now, Signature Sounds is set to continue that legacy, celebrating the original liquid sound while embracing its evolution.
