two of the most refreshing artists in drum & bass today, villem & mcleod deliver their lp vision on spearhead records. having made waves throughout the scene in recent years with releases on a multitude of labels, their musicality mixed with dance floor flare sets the scene for the debut long player. funky, introspective at times, the album travels across v&m’s sound palette to create a beautifully crafted showcase that cements their status in 2018.
-we wrote the lp over a two year period of dramatic changes for us both, girlfriends, marriages, births, and deaths, it was this that fed back into the album. us trying to navigate our way through life, using that as inspiration to complete a dream we’d always talked about. writing an album is a different challenge than writing singles or an ep, it takes you deeper into how we want our sound to be remembered, more thought of the overall aesthetic, and ultimately more satisfying once we had completed it.- villem & mcleod 2018

continuing on their stellar run of form sees villem & mcleod drop another release of top drawer drum & bass. aint no way is pure dance floor goodness. rolling drums, deep bassline stabs & vocal snippets all wrapped up perfectly. make tomorrow features the boys alongside friend totem delivering a blissful, summery roller to please anyone. twinkles of piano, female coos, distant horns shimmering along steppy drums. saved you is a digital exclusive & sees the men going more for a head down, minimal affair. something for everything on this one!

villem & mcleod return to samurai red seal for another outing to follow their successful pairing on hush for the label in 2012 which was part of one of the labels biggest 12&#8243,,,s ever. this time both sides of the record are collaborative pieces and both tunes are overflowing with glistening summer vibrations. another star has been heavily supported by the likes of marcus intalex (who debuted it on his soul:ution radio show), london elektricity, and of course friction who has been hammering the tune on his bbc radio 1 show, as well as picking it up for inclusion on his forthcoming fabriclive cd. keeper of the sun continues the theme with every element honed to perfection, a tune that transports you smiling into the sunset. further dj support already in from hype, spectrasoul, nu tone, die, bryan g, kasra, tokyo prose, hybrid minds & more to come..
