MY HOUSE / THR33
12 Inch
13.09.11
>my house< is both a chunky rave smasher and refreshingly different in its approach. opening with simple synth stabs, warm pads and skipping half time beats, you would be forgiven for expecting a cheesy radio track to emerge, but instead you are treated to an amalgamation of intense electro house inspired musicality mashed together with familiar drum and bass sounds. on the flip taxman takes it to triplet town on the cheekily titled >thr33<. bouncing synth pulses keep the whole track moving gently before taxmans deep subs drop into the mix. sweeping pads lend the track an epic feel and its not long before you are entirely hypnotised with its screeching sound fx and mesmerising rhythms.

2x12 Inch
06.06.11
having already grabbed 2011 by the jugular with releases from original sin and hazard, dj hype & pascals playaz imprint isnt ready to start taking prisoners just yet, as they unleash another four-track ep packed with secret weapons.

FOOD FIGHT / PROTEUS
12 Inch
08.04.11
picking up where he left off on playaz011 >busta move / death march<, dj hazard continues to bring the freshest sounding drum & bass around. having locked himself away and developed a whole new dimension to his sound, hazard brings influences from the d&b sound of the late 90s with up-to-date production and rhythmic patterns.
once again this year playaz prove they are about quality drum & bass, no matter the style. cant wait to see whats next!
POON / BRIGHTER DAYS
12 Inch
29.03.11
kicking this release off is >poon<, a crowd-pleasing number thats been doing plenty of damage in hypes sets across the globe. stepping beats are underpinned by winding, warping and morphing bass notes that give fresh life to the dancefloor drum and bass formula. on the flip is a complete contrast that displays sub zeros effortless diversity. the muted reese bass and rolling rhythms of >brighter days< could easily slip into an autonomic set and provides a stunning departure into the deeper side of drum and bass.
KONKRETE SHOES /
12 Inch
10.03.11
for those of you wondering where the trademark taxman filth is, it doesnt take long for the warping sound effects and a humongous bassline to hove into view. with a drop that could kill a man at 20 paces, you would better make sure you have got a secluded spot by the river to drop some bodies into! on the flip >distorted reality< opens with more smooth and silky sounds that are juxtaposed with clinical precision against clattering amens and a stomach churning reese. packed with dancefloor smashing power, this one is sure to have everyone clamouring for the dj booth.
TRU BORN PLAYA
