Xilent : Step One / Irreversible : Beta Recordings : 12"
John B's Beta Recordings provides a storming end to the summer with an epic, yet snarling dancefloor 12" from the precocious new talent Xilent. * Originally from Poland, young drum & bass producer Xilent now resides in Edinburgh, Scotland. After first breaking onto the scene in 2007 he has steadily risen through the ranks with his intense, muscular yet funky and uplifting style. * 'Step One' the title track is the kind of epic opener that John B tears up arenas with on a weekly basis. Opening with massive hands-up trance synths, it breaks down into a snarling beast, morphing the synths into a dancefloor behemoth. Take a breather during the breakdown before the second drop smacks you straight in the face all over again. * 'Irreversible' rolls in sleekly with otherworldly synths and whispered ethereal vocals, the tension building with every bar. What is in store, though, is fearsome: a stuttering growling monster bassline, kept in kicked into shape by whip-cracking snares. * 'Twice' maintains that blurred line between epic and filth - but states its intentions early on with bassbin shaking kick drums overlaying the echoing stabs, before true urgency of the drop ensues. / DnB / [11/11/2010]

Prolix : No Pressure / Mean Streets : Bad Taste Recordings : 12"
Prolix has made a real name for himself in the past few years, releasing some of the filthiest, twisted drum and bass going as part of DJ Hypes Playaz family. Heading up the Ganja-Tek imprint with a slew of dancefloor destroyers Prolix has won fans from all over scene. Having recently completed massive remixes for Ed Rush & Optical on Virus, and Cause4Concern Prolix is definitely on a roll right now. So following his collaboration with Maldini and Vegas in 2009, and an appearance on Bad Taste III, a single all to himself was the obvious next move. * No Pressure is a straight up slice of rolling techy dancefloor funk. Perfectly balancing hard snappy drums, disgusting distorted bass, cheeky edits and a rolling future funk groove. Nods to the old skool with its use of rave tinged fxs, this is big, prime time material. * Mean Streets is a frantic, hard hitting cut with a dancefloor edge. Prolix steps up his production, with an jagged atmospheric intro which quickly slides into a mutating bass assault. / DnB / [11/11/2010]

Amoss : Glurg Monster : Cyclone Recordings : 12"
Amoss - 'Glurg Monster' The atmospheric environment takes you on a journey that steadily rises & then falls into melodic breakdowns. There's an extreme contrast of slow warping, deep & dirty sublow basslines that gives this track a general dubby style, overlayed with fastpaced complex percussion patterns and face slapping snares. The Glurg Monster's been released! aa. Amoss - 'Create More' The flip side is quite minimalistic & glitchy, yet it's still dancefloor & rolling. The tune's intelligent progression builds all the way to the second drop, with steppy punchy kicks & snappy snares, bleeps & techy effects, intricate percussion & harmonious strings. Currently receiving heavy DJ Support from Spectrasoul, Loxy, Data, Outrage, Doc Scott, Sunchase, AMC & many more! a Amoss - Glurg Monster aa Amoss - Create More / DnB / [11/11/2010]

Data : Surveillance / The Fold : Inside : 12"
Inside Music proudly presents our latest release with Data stepping up to the plate with fellow producers Keza and Dynamic. Deeply abstract, broken and staggered, this is music for the future. * Surveillance graces the A side, with it's broken and abstract beat carrying the pace. Alongside, a huge percussive bassline distorted to an immense tone punches through the speaker. Short wave radio conversations and whispered movements lurk in the background, studying the scene before the huge reece tone reveals it's villainous intent. * The Fold hits the flip, with it's sharp and razorlike beat cutting through soundsystems. A twisted midrange completes the bassline, as extra fragments join it in later sections. Combined with moving and attacking percussion, The Fold relentlessly rolls out, only breaking for a moment, where ejects you into deep space, while computers blip and work out calculations. / DnB / [11/11/2010]

Unquote / Unquote & Molecular Structures : Hide Your Tears Because We Are In Heaven / Lubov Moya : Med School : 12"
Saint-Petersburg is a breeding ground for exciting new electronic music and Unquote is another young talent to emerge from Russia's second city. Fans of Hospital and Med School will already be familiar with his warm affecting sound. His deep dubstep remix of Bop's "Enjoy The Moment" came out on Med School earlier this year and the beautiful "Hours Have No Reverse Motion", with friend and collaborator Mr Sizef, featured on Hospital's "The Future Sound Of Russia" compilation last year - alongside tracks from a host of Russia's finest producers. * To quote Unquote, he describes his music as "hearing the sound of your soul" and the extravagantly titled "Hide Your Tears…" is no exception. Waves of rich strings, celestial synths and hearty bass are punctuated by monumental kick drums while a chopped up angelic vocal forms an infectious narrative. Epic and emotional, this is forward-thinking drum+bass with a disregard for the rulebook. * Unquote is ably assisted by German Producer Molecular Structures on the flip. "Lubov Moya", which translates into English as "My Love", strikes the perfect balance with a distinctive, darker dancefloor flavour. Instantly recognisable with it's bleepy lead hook, driven reece bassline and amen breaks, it was premiered by Danny Byrd on his BBC Radio One Essential Mix in August. * Definitely 'one to watch', Unquote's productions have already caught the attention of legendary German house DJ Tom Novy, as well as a plethora of tastemakers from the drum+bass community including dBridge, Instra:mental, Doc Scott, Loxy, Blu Mar Ten, Joe Syntax and ASC. / DnB / [11/11/2010]

A superb combination which makes this a certified V club banger ""White Rasta Ragga, Lips like Jagga". * 'Virago' is the perfect flip side for this single. Steo is no stranger to V, and performs effortlessly with his classic R & b vibes. He paints his picture of love and life with a war like woman, In a world not to far from the present.

Rockwell : DJ Friendly Unit Shifter / Fakin' Jacks : Shogun Audio : 12"
Rockwell steps up for his first Shogun release since signing exclusively with the label and shows just what hot property he is with 'DJ Friendly Unit Shifter' b/w 'Fakin' Jacks'. Oozing versatility, Rockwell consistently achieves a fine balance between dance floor tear-out and the production intricacies that have gained his music so much attention - this release is no exception, serious business. * As featured on Friction's recent Ministry Of Sound mix album, 'DJ Friendly Unit Shifter' is a beast, intro'ing with distorted synth teases that drop suddenly into a deep pulsing sub-bass, warming the blood as it chases cheeky rhythmic glitches. A funk-induced warping bass hits against the velvety-smooth, while underlying shakes and edits highlight the constant motion in the music - a fine characteristic of the new Shogun warrior. Then wait for the breakdown that gives some respite before things roll out again, big stinking nasty! * 'Fakin' Jacks' reveals Rockwell's advanced and futuristic sound - a technical masterpiece. The side-chained synth intro delves into an impossibly deep, dark, devilish bass. Whiplash strikes and cool synth stabs drop over unforgiving hits and FX, accompanied by Rockwell's trademark heavily-edited drums and basslines that make for an astounding track. An impressive feat, and not a surprise to learn then, that 'Fakin' Jacks' features over 100 tracks of percussion and took over three months to write! * DJ support from Friction, Icicle, Alix Perez, SpectraSoul, Ulterior Motive & more. / DnB / [11/11/2010]

Ok so this is my 7th album, it doesn't feel like it but I don't know what should…..the last dnb album I wrote from the ground up was overflow, so in between I released Shelflife 2 a compilation of unreleased tracks, and Shine A Light my weird departure from everything, with Even If…. I was back on familiar ground, I employed my voice a few times, got emotional, forgot everything and turned the tempo up. I'm always looking for the songwriter slant in dnb, to feel the blues in my music is important to me, it is a raw connection I never get tired of looking for. And to sing it means a lot to me. I've tried to cover my own long standing interests in a musical genre that was supposed to have died a long time ago.

Girl Unit : Wut : Night Slugs : 12"
Earlier this year, Girl Unit dropped his debut 'IRL' EP on Night Slugs, introducing to the world his unique style of futuristic, 808-driven club trax. Now after months of anticipation, comes his mammoth follow-up in the form of the intergalactic smash hit 'Wut' - a digital masterpiece steeped in glorious, organic euphoria. Where 'IRL' was an excursion into ghetto house, the half-time 'Wut' is draws heavily on Girl Unit's Southern rap influences. Its booming low-slung kicks, monumental claps and 808 triplets might feel familiar, but the track's rapturous organs and vocal hook raise it to levels unparalleled, leading to uncontrollable dancefloor jubilation. The rest of the EP follows in a suitably crunked-out style while exploring different moods. 'Every Time' is a massive, triumphant, dramatically orchestral arrangement, which sees Girl Unit adopt his hovering synths to play epic horns, brooding organs, strings and even a honky-tonk piano. The result is crushingly heavy and just as emotional. The EP closes with "Showstoppa", which utilises fewer elements than the others but hits just as hard. a Girl Unit - Wut b1 Girl Unit - Every Time b2 Girl Unit - Showstoppa / Dubstep / [11/11/2010]

In addition to label and production duties, he also runs the massively successful SUB:STANCE night at Berlin's techno Mecca, Berghain, the sound of which he committed to plastic in a DJ mix released on Ostgut Ton in January 2010. Following the first Scuba LP, A Mutual Antipathy (2008) which was remixed by Marcel Dettman, Martyn and Surgeon, Triangulation (2010) took the Scuba sound to a new level. The collision of dubstep and techno has produced startling music from a wide range of producers in the last few years, none more than Scuba, and that has been well documented. But Triangulation moves past the dubstep/techno axis and into new territory. Working at multiple tempos, the album covers an area ranging from house to experimental drum n bass while retaining the Scuba sound that has become so distinctive. For Triangulation (Interpretations) new allure is breathed into Scuba's originals. The listless beauty of Before is embued with a spine tingling warmth on Scuba's luscious opening re-edit, Before (After). A remix of Latch by Will Saul & Mike Monday of Simple Records, Aus Music and Buzzin' Fly, infuses the dubbed out original with a dose of bumping house flavor. America's totem of bass Faulty DL takes leave from the original On Deck with a low burring bassline and elegantly woven melodies drawn warmly across the whole. Scuba's back with the old skool vibes on You Got Me (I Got You) but confidently skips the line by keeping it firmly in this moment. Canadian Deadbeat has showcased his own brand of dub laden electronics for the likes of Wagon Repair, Scape, Spectral , Musique Risque and Cynosure over the past decade, his remix of Tracers sees him in classic form delivering a deep 7am techno heavy hitter. Joe made an immediate impact on the scene with his 12"s on Hessle Audio and Applepips over the past year, his rework of So You Think You're Special has a slowly blossoming groove underpinning stuttering percussion, jangling keys and an expertly playful melody that opens out across the sparse background. Finally, South London's Deadboy offers an understated modern jungle remix of Before with skittering hats and heavy bass that can't fail to light up floors and faces.

C.R.S.T. : Good Love EP : No Hats No Hoods : 12"
C.R.S.T first came to our attention through the now almost redundant medium of myspace. It rare that we check our messages on the clogged up dinosaur of social networks, and ever rarer we find any demos that are worth a second listen. However we're glad we did and the first demos sent our way by the Welsh foursome blew us away. * Gliding effortlessly between garage, classic house and the syncopated rhythms of UK funky its clear the boys are cramming a lot of influences into their tracks. The joy of their end product though is that at no times does it feel schizophrenic or muddled - rather achieving accomplished tracks that pay tribute to the past while remaining crucially relevant. * 'Good Love', 'Ultra 64' and 'Revisit' are all unique takes on house and garage but brought up to date and refreshed for the modern dancefloor. * The remixes are also stellar - Night Slug's Mosca goes for a grimier turn that his normal output in a remix of 'Dance' he made with NHNH in mind. Fellow Welshman Doc Daneeka reinvents the title track into a rolling, funky track. * C.R.S.T's quality has just gained our attention - support from Sinden, Oneman, Bok Bok has lead to them signing up to 2 EPs on Herve's Cheap Thrills label as well as an EP on the Deadboy affiliated Well Rounded. * TRACKLIST: A1: Good Love A2: Good Love (Doc Daneeka Remix) B1: Ultra64 B2: Dance (Mosca Remix) / Grime / [11/11/2010]

Spooky : Spartan : No Hats No Hoods : 12"
When BBC 1xtra's Mistajam was tasked with battling Zane Lowe live on BBC Radio 1 earlier this month he knew he had to pull out all the stops and bring out the big guns. Naturally he turned to Spooky's 'Spartan' and soon laid Zane, and the rest of the Radio 1 prime time listeners to waste. * 'Chest Rattling', 'Epic' were just a few of the words uttered by the shocked New Zealander as he immediately knew that the clash was already a lost cause one track in. 'Epic' and 'Chest Rattling' almost don't do the track justice - the track is an immediate reload in any club and has already been selected as weapon of choice by Logan Sama, Terror Danjah, Butterz and many more. Not since 'Forward Riddim' (vocalled as 'Pow' by Lethal B) has there been an instrumental that has so universally prompted gun fingers and screw faces across the UK, and No Hats No Hoods is proud to unleash it upon the wider world. * Having cut his teeth as the DJ for Tempa T's legendary grime crew Slew Dem Spooky's always known what its taken to get the crowd hype. His previous 1xtra garage chart topper 'Joyride' is testament to this, as is his fast and furious dj sets. 'Spartan' take all the energy so characteristic in grime, and turns it up a notch with hard hitting drums and a rallying cry that's fast becoming a grime catchphrase. * On remix duty Martelo takes thing in funky territory, keeping the hype of the original but adding in pounding, tribal drums - and Spooky shows off his unique still again on his top 3 selected remix. * TRACKLIST: A1: Spartan B1: Spartan (Martelo) B2: Top 3 Selected Remix / Grime / [11/11/2010]

Xilent : Step One / Irreversible : Beta Recordings : 12"
John B's Beta Recordings provides a storming end to the summer with an epic, yet snarling dancefloor 12" from the precocious new talent Xilent. * Originally from Poland, young drum & bass producer Xilent now resides in Edinburgh, Scotland. After first breaking onto the scene in 2007 he has steadily risen through the ranks with his intense, muscular yet funky and uplifting style. * 'Step One' the title track is the kind of epic opener that John B tears up arenas with on a weekly basis. Opening with massive hands-up trance synths, it breaks down into a snarling beast, morphing the synths into a dancefloor behemoth. Take a breather during the breakdown before the second drop smacks you straight in the face all over again. * 'Irreversible' rolls in sleekly with otherworldly synths and whispered ethereal vocals, the tension building with every bar. What is in store, though, is fearsome: a stuttering growling monster bassline, kept in kicked into shape by whip-cracking snares. * 'Twice' maintains that blurred line between epic and filth - but states its intentions early on with bassbin shaking kick drums overlaying the echoing stabs, before true urgency of the drop ensues. / DnB / [11/11/2010]

Prolix has made a real name for himself in the past few years, releasing some of the filthiest, twisted drum and bass going as part of DJ Hypes Playaz family. Heading up the Ganja-Tek imprint with a slew of dancefloor destroyers Prolix has won fans from all over scene. Having recently completed massive remixes for Ed Rush & Optical on Virus, and Cause4Concern Prolix is definitely on a roll right now. So following his collaboration with Maldini and Vegas in 2009, and an appearance on Bad Taste III, a single all to himself was the obvious next move. * No Pressure is a straight up slice of rolling techy dancefloor funk. Perfectly balancing hard snappy drums, disgusting distorted bass, cheeky edits and a rolling future funk groove. Nods to the old skool with its use of rave tinged fxs, this is big, prime time material. * Mean Streets is a frantic, hard hitting cut with a dancefloor edge.

Deeply abstract, broken and staggered, this is music for the future. * Surveillance graces the A side, with it's broken and abstract beat carrying the pace. Alongside, a huge percussive bassline distorted to an immense tone punches through the speaker. Short wave radio conversations and whispered movements lurk in the background, studying the scene before the huge reece tone reveals it's villainous intent. * The Fold hits the flip, with it's sharp and razorlike beat cutting through soundsystems. A twisted midrange completes the bassline, as extra fragments join it in later sections. Combined with moving and attacking percussion, The Fold relentlessly rolls out, only breaking for a moment, where ejects you into deep space, while computers blip and work out calculations. / DnB / [11/11/2010]

Unquote / Unquote & Molecular Structures : Hide Your Tears Because We Are In Heaven / Lubov Moya : Med School : 12"
Saint-Petersburg is a breeding ground for exciting new electronic music and Unquote is another young talent to emerge from Russia's second city. Fans of Hospital and Med School will already be familiar with his warm affecting sound. His deep dubstep remix of Bop's "Enjoy The Moment" came out on Med School earlier this year and the beautiful "Hours Have No Reverse Motion", with friend and collaborator Mr Sizef, featured on Hospital's "The Future Sound Of Russia" compilation last year - alongside tracks from a host of Russia's finest producers. * To quote Unquote, he describes his music as "hearing the sound of your soul" and the extravagantly titled "Hide Your Tears…" is no exception. Waves of rich strings, celestial synths and hearty bass are punctuated by monumental kick drums while a chopped up angelic vocal forms an infectious narrative. Epic and emotional, this is forward-thinking drum+bass with a disregard for the rulebook. * Unquote is ably assisted by German Producer Molecular Structures on the flip. "Lubov Moya", which translates into English as "My Love", strikes the perfect balance with a distinctive, darker dancefloor flavour. Instantly recognisable with it's bleepy lead hook, driven reece bassline and amen breaks, it was premiered by Danny Byrd on his BBC Radio One Essential Mix in August. * Definitely 'one to watch', Unquote's productions have already caught the attention of legendary German house DJ Tom Novy, as well as a plethora of tastemakers from the drum+bass community including dBridge, Instra:mental, Doc Scott, Loxy, Blu Mar Ten, Joe Syntax and ASC. / DnB / [11/11/2010]

Oozing versatility, Rockwell consistently achieves a fine balance between dance floor tear-out and the production intricacies that have gained his music so much attention - this release is no exception, serious business. * As featured on Friction's recent Ministry Of Sound mix album, 'DJ Friendly Unit Shifter' is a beast, intro'ing with distorted synth teases that drop suddenly into a deep pulsing sub-bass, warming the blood as it chases cheeky rhythmic glitches. A funk-induced warping bass hits against the velvety-smooth, while underlying shakes and edits highlight the constant motion in the music - a fine characteristic of the new Shogun warrior. Then wait for the breakdown that gives some respite before things roll out again, big stinking nasty! * 'Fakin' Jacks' reveals Rockwell's advanced and futuristic sound - a technical masterpiece. The side-chained synth intro delves into an impossibly deep, dark, devilish bass. Whiplash strikes and cool synth stabs drop over unforgiving hits and FX, accompanied by Rockwell's trademark heavily-edited drums and basslines that make for an astounding track. An impressive feat, and not a surprise to learn then, that 'Fakin' Jacks' features over 100 tracks of percussion and took over three months to write! * DJ support from Friction, Icicle, Alix Perez, SpectraSoul, Ulterior Motive & more. / DnB / [11/11/2010]

I was back on familiar ground, I employed my voice a few times, got emotional, forgot everything and turned the tempo up. I'm always looking for the songwriter slant in dnb, to feel the blues in my music is important to me, it is a raw connection I never get tired of looking for. And to sing it means a lot to me.

Argon has also done quite a few releases from these rising stars and planned a whole album with music from both these artists early 2011.

Girl Unit : Wut : Night Slugs : 12"
Earlier this year, Girl Unit dropped his debut 'IRL' EP on Night Slugs, introducing to the world his unique style of futuristic, 808-driven club trax. Now after months of anticipation, comes his mammoth follow-up in the form of the intergalactic smash hit 'Wut' - a digital masterpiece steeped in glorious, organic euphoria. Where 'IRL' was an excursion into ghetto house, the half-time 'Wut' is draws heavily on Girl Unit's Southern rap influences. Its booming low-slung kicks, monumental claps and 808 triplets might feel familiar, but the track's rapturous organs and vocal hook raise it to levels unparalleled, leading to uncontrollable dancefloor jubilation. The rest of the EP follows in a suitably crunked-out style while exploring different moods. 'Every Time' is a massive, triumphant, dramatically orchestral arrangement, which sees Girl Unit adopt his hovering synths to play epic horns, brooding organs, strings and even a honky-tonk piano. The result is crushingly heavy and just as emotional. The EP closes with "Showstoppa", which utilises fewer elements than the others but hits just as hard. a Girl Unit - Wut b1 Girl Unit - Every Time b2 Girl Unit - Showstoppa / Dubstep / [11/11/2010]

Scuba : Triangulation (Interpretations) : Hotflush Recordings : 2xCD
Scuba's critically acclaimed album is reworked for 'Triangulation (Interpretations)' Scuba, aka Paul Rose, has been at the forefront of the dubstep scene since its birth. Having founded the innovative and influential Hotflush Recordings label in 2003, he has continually brought colour and depth to an advancing genre, expanding its sonic structure and increasing its influence on the wider electronic scene. Through Scuba and seminal work by central figures including Distance, Vex'd and more recently Mount Kimbie and Joy Orbison, Hotflush remains crucial to the immediate moment and the developing future of the most exciting aspects of electronic music. In addition to label and production duties, he also runs the massively successful SUB:STANCE night at Berlin's techno Mecca, Berghain, the sound of which he committed to plastic in a DJ mix released on Ostgut Ton in January 2010. Following the first Scuba LP, A Mutual Antipathy (2008) which was remixed by Marcel Dettman, Martyn and Surgeon, Triangulation (2010) took the Scuba sound to a new level. The collision of dubstep and techno has produced startling music from a wide range of producers in the last few years, none more than Scuba, and that has been well documented. But Triangulation moves past the dubstep/techno axis and into new territory. Working at multiple tempos, the album covers an area ranging from house to experimental drum n bass while retaining the Scuba sound that has become so distinctive. For Triangulation (Interpretations) new allure is breathed into Scuba's originals. The listless beauty of Before is embued with a spine tingling warmth on Scuba's luscious opening re-edit, Before (After). A remix of Latch by Will Saul & Mike Monday of Simple Records, Aus Music and Buzzin' Fly, infuses the dubbed out original with a dose of bumping house flavor. America's totem of bass Faulty DL takes leave from the original On Deck with a low burring bassline and elegantly woven melodies drawn warmly across the whole. Scuba's back with the old skool vibes on You Got Me (I Got You) but confidently skips the line by keeping it firmly in this moment. Canadian Deadbeat has showcased his own brand of dub laden electronics for the likes of Wagon Repair, Scape, Spectral , Musique Risque and Cynosure over the past decade, his remix of Tracers sees him in classic form delivering a deep 7am techno heavy hitter. Joe made an immediate impact on the scene with his 12"s on Hessle Audio and Applepips over the past year, his rework of So You Think You're Special has a slowly blossoming groove underpinning stuttering percussion, jangling keys and an expertly playful melody that opens out across the sparse background. Finally, South London's Deadboy offers an understated modern jungle remix of Before with skittering hats and heavy bass that can't fail to light up floors and faces.

C.R.S.T. : Good Love EP : No Hats No Hoods : 12"
C.R.S.T first came to our attention through the now almost redundant medium of myspace. It rare that we check our messages on the clogged up dinosaur of social networks, and ever rarer we find any demos that are worth a second listen. However we're glad we did and the first demos sent our way by the Welsh foursome blew us away. * Gliding effortlessly between garage, classic house and the syncopated rhythms of UK funky its clear the boys are cramming a lot of influences into their tracks. The joy of their end product though is that at no times does it feel schizophrenic or muddled - rather achieving accomplished tracks that pay tribute to the past while remaining crucially relevant. * 'Good Love', 'Ultra 64' and 'Revisit' are all unique takes on house and garage but brought up to date and refreshed for the modern dancefloor. * The remixes are also stellar - Night Slug's Mosca goes for a grimier turn that his normal output in a remix of 'Dance' he made with NHNH in mind. Fellow Welshman Doc Daneeka reinvents the title track into a rolling, funky track. * C.R.S.T's quality has just gained our attention - support from Sinden, Oneman, Bok Bok has lead to them signing up to 2 EPs on Herve's Cheap Thrills label as well as an EP on the Deadboy affiliated Well Rounded. * TRACKLIST: A1: Good Love A2: Good Love (Doc Daneeka Remix) B1: Ultra64 B2: Dance (Mosca Remix) / Grime / [11/11/2010]

Spooky : Spartan : No Hats No Hoods : 12"
When BBC 1xtra's Mistajam was tasked with battling Zane Lowe live on BBC Radio 1 earlier this month he knew he had to pull out all the stops and bring out the big guns. Naturally he turned to Spooky's 'Spartan' and soon laid Zane, and the rest of the Radio 1 prime time listeners to waste. * 'Chest Rattling', 'Epic' were just a few of the words uttered by the shocked New Zealander as he immediately knew that the clash was already a lost cause one track in. 'Epic' and 'Chest Rattling' almost don't do the track justice - the track is an immediate reload in any club and has already been selected as weapon of choice by Logan Sama, Terror Danjah, Butterz and many more. Not since 'Forward Riddim' (vocalled as 'Pow' by Lethal B) has there been an instrumental that has so universally prompted gun fingers and screw faces across the UK, and No Hats No Hoods is proud to unleash it upon the wider world. * Having cut his teeth as the DJ for Tempa T's legendary grime crew Slew Dem Spooky's always known what its taken to get the crowd hype. His previous 1xtra garage chart topper 'Joyride' is testament to this, as is his fast and furious dj sets. 'Spartan' take all the energy so characteristic in grime, and turns it up a notch with hard hitting drums and a rallying cry that's fast becoming a grime catchphrase. * On remix duty Martelo takes thing in funky territory, keeping the hype of the original but adding in pounding, tribal drums - and Spooky shows off his unique still again on his top 3 selected remix. * TRACKLIST: A1: Spartan B1: Spartan (Martelo) B2: Top 3 Selected Remix / Grime / [11/11/2010]
