[VMRDT113] UZI - Tommy Tank EP [Available To Purchase Now From Viral-Mental Records Digital Stores!!!]


1/ He Da Ho. 
2/ Impact.
3/ Tommy Tank.
4/ Wu-Tang Book.

The Viral-Mental Records camp are back after their short break, and this time they bring Uzi in tow to unleash his double-entendre loaded 'Tommy Tank EP', which features a quartet of rough and rugged, jungle/D&B dancefloor artillery. Batton down the hatches, it's time for battle!!!

The conflict begins with 'He Da Ho', an upfront slice of headstrong, jump-up drum & bass (circa 1996!), driven by a crisp series of two-step breaks, funky FX swells and a bouncing, rubber ball bassline that'll put a smile right on yer face. 
Up next we go all dubwise with the skanking 'Impact', a moody stepper of a tune propelled by rugged beats and a sinister, droning bass riff peppered with forlorn, dub reggae trumpet blasts and guitar flourishes. One for the headstrong junglist out there.

After a heart pounding, stab fuelled intro, title track 'Tommy Tank' gets the party flowing with it's fusion of ascending/descending bass groans and rapid-fire, electro-on-speed breaks switching from lighter to darker vibes in an instant.
We are then led to the EP's conclusion with the 'Wu-Tang Book', which fuses together vintage kung-fu flick samplage and Oriental sound effects, with classic T.O.V. style bass riffs and precision crafted, clockwork breakbeats to give you a veritable martial arts, jungle masterpiece.

As always, the mighty Uzi pulls out all the stops to bring you a rich and varied collection of jump-up jungle (not the kids stuff mind you!) and dancefloor destroying drum & bass that'll be a mainstay in your DJ set for months!!!

UZI's 'Tommy Tank EP' is available to purchase now from all good Viral-Mental Records digital stockists and streaming sites!!!

[RARA028] Distrax And Decibel Lecter - Unprecedented Algorithms [Available To Purchase From All Good Red Alfa Records Digital Stockists!!!]


1/ Distrax - Something New.
2/ Decibel Lecter - Worlds Collide.
3/ Distrax - Living In The Fear Of Jungle.
4/ Decibel Lecter - Run It Red.
5/ Distrax - Gonna Get Sorted.
6/ Decibel Lecter - Nightmares.
7/ Distrax - Something New (Decibel Lecter V.I.P).
8/ Decibel Lecter - Worlds Collide (Distrax V.I.P).

Two underground drum and bass behemoths forge a mighty allegiance on the very latest release from respected D&B label, Red Alfa Records. The ever prolific Distrax and Red Alfa label mate Decibel Lecter combine their distinctive talents to deliver the 'Unprecedented Algorithms' album. Featuring eight razor-sharp drum and bass, future anthems, prepare yourself for the clash of the Titans!!!

Distrax is first up to the plate with 'Something New', a sublime combination of rolling breaks, thundering bass throbs and a melancholic synth melody that evokes the works of Burial and Boards Of Canada. Sparring partner Decibel Lecter delivers his musical retort next with 'Worlds Collide', which layers an eclectic selection of vocal and sonic elements over a rock-solid, stepping breakbeat and massive, bass heavy riff section. Things go a little darker on 'Living In The Fear Of Jungle', which expertly fuses together menacing drum & bass and jungle influences before introducing a immense, euphoric drop to break through the darkness.

'Run It Red' sees a sultry, diva's spoken words espousing a message of positivity interwoven through a series of crisp and precise, clockwork beats and spine-tingling stabs that'll get all ravers' hands in the air. The opening bars of 'Gonna Get Sorted' delivers an unrelenting, gritty breaks pattern which is contrasted by a succession of warped, acid-frequencies flowing throughout. We are then taken on a roller-coaster ride, deep into the darkside of drum & bass with 'Nightmares', where a mammoth, electric-shock stab section from the bowels of hell does battle with monstrous bass notes and nightmarish, horror-themed dialogue.

'Something New' receives an oppressively dark, V.I.P. makeover from Decibel Lecter, who utilises classic Ultramagnetic MC's, shuffling breaks alongside harsh synth notes and menacing atmospherics. Distrax then returns the favour by rounding off the album with his equally dark 'Worlds Colllide V.I.P.', which strips the original mix back to it's bare bones and adds haunting pads, skeletal breaks and low-end bass rumblings to great effect.

With 'Unprecidented Algorithims', Distrax And Decibel Lector offers their own unique and richly influenced take on the drum and bass formula, offering an excellent selection of expertly produced and hard-hitting future classics. So if you consider yourself a D&B fanatic, then make sure that you have this in your collection!!!
