After a year in the making, we can finally present to you Toolkit 20. Following the success of last years release we had to really pull out all the production stops to bring you a cutting edge album by an unmistakably talented artist.

Our next offering is from a DJ & Producer who has graced our scene for over a decade. Not only does he run the Encoded label and their events, he is also Co-Label Manager for the mighty Frantic Digital. With a string of residences under his belt to his accolade, this artist continues to produce monster track after monster track and creating future hard house anthems. Let’s get excited, we present to you the Wayne Smart Toolkit.
 
Wayne Smart is a household name within our heavyweight scene who originally stems from a vinyl background but has never compromised his music style. This is clearly demonstrated when he plays his back catalogue vinyl rips just too good to be kept in a record bag, in this now digital world. Renowned for having lots of energy whilst keeping the fun, Wayne has been able to incorporate his set sound into his productions. Many of these can be found on his Soundcloud page where his LIVE sets from the infamous Tidy Weekenders have had over 10’000 hits. 2019 sadly sees Wayne’s retirement from DJing but to our delight he is hosting a huge retirement gig in London in October featuring many of the scenes much loved DJ’s and artists who have been influential in his music career to date. Fortunately for us, he is nowhere near hanging up the studio headphones.
 
His first major success was a collaboration that turned heads with Phat Beats & Defective Audio ‘Death Warrant’ which still appears in DJ’s wallets today as a firm favourite. Showing his diversity he has a huge range of music from funky hard house to driving hard trance under his many aliases which include DDT and the Pandemics. The past 5 years have seen many of his official remixes and original tracks on top shelf labels like Vicious Circle, Toolbox and Deprivation that have been featured on album after album including the huge ‘Girls Like It Hard’ Mixed By Lucy Fur & Cally Gage. ‘Frantic’ on Frantic Digital was a game changer, as was ‘I Bass’ on Deprivation and ‘Bad To The Bone’ with Mike Taylor also featured on ‘Frantic Digital’. Wayne was lucky enough to tour Australia and New Zealand in 2016 showcasing many of his productions to his global fan base. He has also been fortunate enough to have worked with some of the most influential producers in the scene including BK, James Nardi, Dave Owens and Dom Sweeten, and this album is no different.
 
Toolkit 20 runs from red to purple like a rainbow of sound to cover every aspect of dance music. Heavy baselines, plenty of hoovers, old-skool stabs and uplifting vocals will catapult your ears through journey after journey on this album. Demonstrated on tracks like 'What's Your Problem' and 'Your Love'. Both old-skool feel masterful creations that take you back to 1999 with all the baseline heaviness of 2019. The insane baseline groove that is 'Changes', complimented with that hoover lead and huge diva vocals. And not for the fainthearted you have 'Get Here Now' with that circa 2000 Nu NRG feel involving plenty of grit and a hoover riff to drool over. 
 
Thank you again for supporting the Toolkit series, of course our heart Toolbox Recordings and the long awaited return of Hammer Heads Digital.
 
Much love,
Toolbox Recordings
