Releases from artist / Veröffentlichungen von : S.p.y

returning for the second chapter, s.p.y goes *back to basics* and takes us deeper, darker and further underground with this uncompromising selection. the recent *back to basics chapter 1* lp introduced a new edge to his sound, and having tested these tracks in his dj sets over recent months, s.p.y has fine-tuned mixdowns and structures for maximum dancefloor impact. s.p.y brings in the iconic vocals of diane charlemagne once again with a *great use of a great singer* according to eddy tm x-fm. closest allies total science return to collaborate on this second edition, joined by spearheads bcee and well renowned mc lowqui.

with the dust not yet settled on his massive debut *what the future holds*, s.p.y is already taking us *back to basics* with a rough and rugged new long player. going deeper and darker this time round, s.p.ys uncompromising approach to production and an unparalleled dancefloor pedigree has been getting d+b dons hot under the collar.
the first instalment of *back to basics chapter one* comes in the form of an exclusive 2x12 vinyl only sampler. the full album release follows in a matter of weeks. collaborators include total science and rene lavice, as well as vocal contributions from grimm, the legendary diane charlemagne, and dancehall don suku of ward 21.

one of the biggest tracks in liquid d&b of the last few years gets the remix treatment. originally intended as a dj only vip, the keeno & whiney remix grew as an underground anthem, with spearhead records getting daily e-mails demanding its release before they had even heard the remix. in order to give the fans a little more for their money, bcee teamed up with hyrbid minds to bring their own spearhead style interpretation.
this is an un-official release and will only be available on 10 inch blue vinyl, for a very limited time. this will not be repressed.

hot on the heels of the >love & hate< ep comes this double a-side vinyl-only release from s.p.y which is being pressed on limited edition white vinyl.
lead track >future tense< is a six-minute journey into the deeper side of s.p.y.s production featuring west-coast male vocals courtesy of us soulster jo-s. flip side >roll the dice< switches things up and sees s.p.y go in on a darker and more menacing tip.

fierces label rolling d&b …

s.p.y makes his debut on hospital with the >love & hate< ep which is out now on double 12 inch vinyl.
the title track is simple, back to basics sub-bass science. moody atmospherics and trademark twisted diva vocals on the intro make way for some of the most ridiculous subs weve heard since the scene in jurassic park where the t rex makes the glass of water shake.

the 2nd 12 inch taken from forth coming commercial suicide compilation. s.p.ys bulldozer is a ruthless roller. heavy and heady, it takes you deep into dark caverns only to drop you back in all the right places. on the flip dub phizix - scum. this sparse heavy roller draws you into an addictive groove from the outset. chunky beats, moody warped sub bass and funk ensure a vital dance floor scuffle.

this 2 track 12 inch is a vinyl taster of the forthcoming oblivion album. oblivion is the final instalment of the quarantine trinity. the follow up to dominion and zenith in conjunction with the digital album release on october 24th, quarantine are also releasing two more 12 inch vinyls with tracks from optiv, fierce, vicious circle, jubei & nocturnal.

the cia agents team up with s.p.y. for the limited edition follow-up to the ghostriders ep. cool windrush synths and tense disjointed breaks kick off >stay<, before reese hits herald the tough drop of distorted mutato-bass and rolling drums laced with fragments of scorpio and sniper breaks, plus slick bongo licks and sci-fi fx to complete the hyped up vibes.
>cast away< continues in the same groove on the flip, with metallic screeches and ripping midrange adding rough textures to the rock-hard, combo of steppy drums and ribcrushing bass.
limited edition yellow vinyl 10 inch - >cast away< is an exclusive track only available on this vinyl 10 inch!

friction & k-tee and metrik deliver huge remixes for spearhead.

when total science & s.p.y come together the collaboration is always worth getting excited about. total science aka q project & spinback have teamed up with s.p.y aka carlos lima again after their massive ‘gangsta/above the clouds’ on shogun audio last year. a prime example of drum & bass production excellence, >ghostrider ep< brings together old skool vibes, an assortment of amen breaks and more atmospheric and soulful aspects of drum & bass while still keeping a darker edge throughout, making this another essential c.i.a. release.

well its been a long time coming but finally critical label boss and all-round entertainer kasra has put hand to mixing desk and delivered his first full 12 inch release on the imprint since it began back in 2002. no only that but he has done it with one of the most prolific and hot property names in the scene right now, brazilian born s.p.y. the result as you would expect is pure d&b thunder! >surface< rolls out seriously from the off with a snapping two-step break accompanied by paranoid pads that drift throughout the mix as an unnerving vox drops us suddenly into this no-nonsense friday night king of the rollers.

klute delivers yet another killer for his commercial suicide imprint. for the a side >this is why< ill skillz team up with s.p.y a sumptuous glory hole of a tune. flip over for >moonrocker<, a sublime shocker of brutish beats and deftly delicate bassery from our favourite viennese cock rockers. dkay & rawfull do it again.

triband is the 1st of four tracks he has made with s.p.y. and is aimed squarely at the dancefloor. steady, on the other hand, is a classic “marcus” self indulgent trip to detroit and is one of the highlights on dj marky’s new mix compilation for the fabric series. this first release for marcus in over 18 months is the lead up release to his much anticipated solo lp “21&#8243,,,, which hits the stores in april 2011.a marcus intalex

atlas recordings is the brainchild of the legendary dj lee. conceived in 2002 and set up as a platform for his burgeoning production output, it garnered a devoted following from the very first release, the huge >udon / double down< from lee himself and long time cohort d.kay. with a bulging dj diary, lee lacked both the time and energy needed to really give it the care and attention it needed and atlas sadly closed its doors just a year later on release number three. fast forward to 2010 however and atlas is making a comeback with lee vowing to make it a success again this time round. atlas004, the first release of the relaunch, is from lee, fellow oxfordians total science and current d&b hot property s.p.y, with two huge dancefloor tracks, ? >relentless< b/w >useless<. these tunes have been getting battered by the select few djs lucky enough to have a copy and have been causing carnage in clubs across the world. they have created a buzz about atlas not seen since the first release and with plenty more music in the pipeline, your sure to be hearing a lot more from lee and his atlas imprint in the near future.

fresh from his massive release on dj dies clear skyz label, s.p.y rocks up on traffic to drop a polished twelve that bristles with thinly veiled menace. stuttering breaks, high tension pads and bursts of static introduce out of the blue, before unleashing the distorto drums and 20.000 volt bassline, laced with echoing laser stabs, and snatches of oldskool mentasm.
