We figured it was time for some d&b again, we had a few tracks lying around for a while that we wanted to finish and put out and we had 2 collabs that went well together. We wanted to call it the 'Tryhard EP', cause all the tracks were so full on. Then Nik & Karol (khomatech.com) started on the artwork, and couldnt really come up with anyuthing cool with that name, so we decided 'Imperial' was a better name. The artwork took about a week to make. We are very proud of this EP.

Imperial w/ Phace 
Phace came out to Groningen again, as he tends to do, to do music. We started this one without working on the main groove first, Florian had brought this awesome chord progrssion. We made the intro and progression from it, which is quite different musically from our normal stuff. Then we went a bit theatrical with the music, i guess we kind of suprised ourselves with the intensity of the drop. But it was refreshing to do. And it´s been going down rather well in our sets..

Tryhard 
This is an older track that has had quite a few incarnations. It used to be called ´lomp´, which translates to crude, or blunt. We had it lying around unfinished for a long time, and a certain youtube set rip was getting a lot of love, so we figured we'd finish it. Changed the mix, added a rollout section, etc. One of the inspriations for this track is Bad Company - 'Dogfight'.. such a sick tune.

Dustup w/ The Upbeats 
Our friends The Upbeats came down to Groningen amidst one of their Europe tours and we hung out, got in the studio, found an old unused bass riff, used it in the buildup, recorded all of us going 'HA' and 'ZU', worked on drum fills for a long time, temporarly called the tune 'Pumpers', jumped around in the studio and voila! 'Dust Up' was born.

Containment 
This track has had many faces also. It started as a bit of a Kemal tribute and and an attempt to do as many things with synths as possible, like the main drums for example (FM8). Along the way it became a journey back into the dark spacious sound of early 2000 era D&B.

While The Upbeats may explain their choice of album title with the humble statement “We’re not super tech geeks, we’ve always felt our approach to production is quite simple.” Anyone who knows anything about this duo’s music can tell you that the end results sound far from primitive. The cheeky-grinned New Zealanders have filled dance floors and iPod playlists around the world with their unique take on drum & bass for nearly a decade, yet their music is sounding fresher than ever; as their impressive new album is about to prove.

‘Primitive Technique’ is an album that caters to many but compromises for no one, and with techniques that may be primitive The Upbeats have crafted an album that sounds undeniably modern.

‘Steady State VIP’

With the original having been a constant on BBC Radio 1, at once both tearing up live sets across the land and
proving Fourward’s muscular technical proficiency, the group are now ready to drop the VIP to ‘Steady State’. Those
familiar plucking keys and spiraling mids return in combination with an interchanging synth arrangement, retaining the
wild energy of the former with an enigmatic alternative flourish.

‘Streetknowledge’

Sweeping dystopian pads and rolling, progressive keys set a reflectively ominous tone in ‘Streetknowledge.’ Moving
towards its climax, the scattered drum arrangement and precision mid-swipes shatter the air of foreboding as a
stepping kick-snare couplet allows the laser-gun funk to dominate, highlighting Fourward’s comfort in meticulous,
carefully constructed and deconstructed arrangements.

Fourward - Streetknowledge


‘Aftermath (feat. Youthstar)’

‘Aftermath’ is the perfect example of Fourward’s ‘less is more’ approach to tech-funk. Teasing on the precipice of
anger, the opening track combines flitting hi-hats and futuristic edits as it builds towards the introduction of
Youthstar’s inimitable, towering vocals. ‘Aftermath’ represents an intriguing marriage of the new-age minimal
aesthetic with a delicate, bouncing sub-groove that lends the track a clinical yet unassuming edge rarely heard within
the neurofunk-aligned sub-genre of Drum & Bass.
