brand new big riddim with venice based newcomers corrupted minds!

its a release featuring cooh, w.p.l, and corrupted minds. they have originally linked up together performing at therapy sessions and after this decided to collaborate in the studio and the result is these two dance floor killer tunes. the sounds are rough and the atmospheres are sick and obscure. the artwork was designed by ivan shopov cooh himself. we decided to release a limited edition 12inch colored wax to support the vinyl market as that is where the history and roots of d&b reside and big riddim rec wants to continue to keep that culture alive. it will also be available in digital format together with another surprise.

das kanadisch-britische produzententeam hybrid minds veröffentlicht sein albumdebuet auf spearhead records. hybrid minds haben schon diverse platten auf mainframe, allsorts und spearhead herausgebracht. das album mountains ist ein pures liquid drum & bass-album. mit dabei sind auch folgende kuenstler ad-apt, charlie p, philippa hanna, rocky nti, bcee, grimm, holly drummond, mike romeo, laurence baker, linguistics, tempza, jasmine spence und mimi page.

mountains will be released as a double-pack, gatefold vinyl pack including cd-copy of the full album. over the last 2 years, hybrid minds (aka josh white & matt lowe) have quickly established a following for their own cinematic, musical and uplifting brand of d&b.

following on from the success of their spearhead debut *meant to be*, hybrid minds return with two more slices of musical goodness. back by popular demand, halcyon features long term hybrid minds collaborator grimm with what is arguably his best vocal work to date. once again giving a lesson in how to keep d&b rolling but deeper than a bottomless pit, new orleans features the haunting vocals of holly drummond. both tracks showcase what has become a trademark for hybrid minds, d&b with more emotion than an entire series of the jeremy kyle show.
support from bryan g, bcee, ai, kenny ken, technimatic, nu:tone and more...

okuz recordings presents fifty five a release that displays a wide variety of drum and bass styles by various artists around the globe! expect the freshes beats from fokuz residents command strange, dj clart, incident, talented newcomers like soligen, type-2, joakuim and rising stars hybrid minds, paul sg, pennygiles & mr joseph.

anyone that is already familiar with the hybrid minds sound will know exactly why bcee was keen to get them on the label. hybrid minds have got the funk and soul that spearhead fans have come to know and love. both meant to be and unconditional are so damn sexy that if this record were a human, it would be a playboy centrefold yet modest enough to have a fig leaf covering its vitals.
dj support for these tracks, and other recent productions has come from jakwob, drumsound & bassline smith, metrik, technimatic & many more.

one of the most exciting liquid acts around today, hybrid minds immediately shot to prominence with the release of the incredible >the place<, and as a group have had over a million plays on ukf. formed of respected jump up producers sensa and haste combined with the vocal talents of grimm, hybrid minds have not looked back since, rapidly making a name for themselves as producers of the most soulful, melodic drum and bass around. after huge releases including a stunning ep on audioporn, feature on med school and a remix for jakwobs >blinding<, hybrid minds are now ready to drop two cuts of their slick, signature sound on the legendary allsorts.
support from b traits on bbc radio 1, marcus intalex, doc scott, camo & krooked and many more!

celsius recordings, enters the summerseason with a real balanced and breezy release. two tracks that are defintely fit to play at barbeques and on sunday afternoon events. hybrid minds deliver an excellent 12 which will get many plays during the summer to come.

on the final part of the fokuz 050 series we have someone who could be described as a veteran in the fokuz camp. brother brings the quality as expected with a beatifull piece of music called manna. its all about the subtle jazzy vibes on this one. although brother isnt the artist getting the most exposure, he proves again that he is definitely a force to be reckoned with.this morning is the highly anticipated release by dynamic duo hybrid minds who already had support from some of the biggest names in the scene. rolling drums, sensuous chords and a groovy bassline! the track also features canadian producer/vocalist grimm adding his vocal flavour to this piece of topnotch production.

>i am bad< is d minds first single of the year and it features guest vocalist charlotte james from the well respected trio hybrid. the original mix coupled with the enei remix makes for a great all round release offering two different ends of the dnb spectrum.

hybrid minds represent a new musical force, with their melodic, soulful drum and bass already making waves. a synergy between influences including trip-hip, acoustic, soul and rnb, hybrid minds, consisting of sensa, haste and grimm, draw on a myriad of influences to produce the smooth sound they are known for. quadrant is best known for the hardware release manipulated living on the carpe diem lp, a track that hasnt left many djs crates since. since then, their output has been slow but steady, and they have amassed a highly respected slew of appearances on triple vision labels citrus and fokuz, showcasing their equal proclivities for dancefloor impact and melodic beauty.2011 represented a remarkable push forward for quadrant, the volume of their output has greatly increased, but like a fine wine, the years have only sharpened their ear for quality and detail. several new solo tunes in the pipeline, and worldwide dj support spanning the gamut from goldie to state of mind, are serving to make this an exciting time for quadrant, their music, and their loyal fans.

moving up and moving on is the ever on point modulations imprint, part of the formidable critical music empire. this time kasra hauls in a duo familiar to most, a duo who have been a staple part of the d&b world for the best part of the last decade, step forward bristols d*minds. >sub crate< intros delicately with dark pads and a stripped back break that prep us for the badman steppa thats about to take flight. drop dread bass is it what its all about as d*minds take us back in time to the early full cycle days with heavy kicks, reverse fx and a punching b-line that doesnt give up. dangerous without a doubt! drawing yet again from their heavy west country influence >stone river< flows nervously through a windswept cityscape with syncopated breaks, slow-rise bass and percussion fills that keep things moving in an otherwise fairly minimal slice of d*minds artillery. great to hear critical bringing out something a little different from these guys.

its been an interesting few years for the one called jakes. from being one of the highest-regarded mcs in the drum and bass world, he took his hand to producing. after creating some of bristols earliest and most seminal dubstep tracks, such as >modem< and >3kout<, his studio skills and style became further embossed. in early 2010 his tracks, >rhythm< and >skanners< spearheaded the productive assault that was the hench mixtape vol. 1. for the next installment of the hench mixture, jakes steps up with a double dose of his signature production style. fasten all loose furniture to the floor and turn up the sub…

entering with that familiar euphoric intro, make way for beezys satanic hook and a drop that does justice to one of the years dubstep anthems. moving to a more serious, steppy vibe midway through, this is not the kind of tune you want to let your girlfriends parents catch on your radio. on the other hand, this is exactly the type of beat that s going to earn you a reputation for killing it on the dancefloor.

the vips of ho bass and ghost town have been firm favourites of djs across the world for the last year. after succumbing to great pressure, weve decided to make available a limited number of promo copies of this release. dont sleep on these arguably the most talked about vip in the last year and we guarantee these will fly!

?ho bass? takes all that pimp energy and slings it onto black crack for all your dancefloor killing needs. flip over and d*minds go solo with ?ghost town? a massive amalgamation of beats and bass which?ll have the kids calling for the reload

after the huge critical acclaim of shape of broad minds 2006 album craft of the lost art comes the stand out single opr8r, revamped with a guest appearance from khujo goodie (goodie mob / dungeon family / outkast cohort). opr8r is a massive summertime rap

first up, the first rule about dsrltd001 is, you must make crap fight club references about dsrltd001, whatever anyway, this is the soundtrack of grown men smacking the shit out of each other in dingy cellars, and that?s about all you need to know, it?s dirty and horrible, and that?s precisely why you like it! on the flip >looking for us< keeps things on the grimey and energetic tip and shows you just why d*minds have been at the top for so long

abgefahrene mischung, house mal anders, caffe del mare cords goes harder house stuff (test it)

the next edition of the jakes project is a massive dancefloor anthem, warface remixed by d minds. as you would expect from a d style release, this one has been battered by every dj in the scene. backed up with all about, another monster penned by jakes and produced by tc.

from the forthcoming release new forms2 on mercury records, it features roni?s original collaborators dynamite mc and onallee on vocals.

dj hazard, der erste drum & bass dj/produzent, der als nichtmitglied der ganja kru auf deren berŸhmten true playaz label gesignt wurde, liefert ein adrenalin geladenes jump-up-drum & bass-set der sonderklasse mit 50(!) tracks in 66 minuten ab, das es einem die sprache verschlŠgt, und legt dabei techy, soulful und rhythmische variationen an den tag, so dass der mix durchweg tight und abwechslungsreich bleibt. ein kšnner eben!
