[VMRDT108] Hektic Ft. Yush - Respect EP [Available From All Good Viral-Mental Records Digital Stores!!!]

1/ Respect (feat. Yush).

2/ Bad Man Ting.

3/ Walk In The Jungle.
4/ Chat Bout.

The mighty Hektic and Viral-Mental records are back again to bring you four ruff and rugged jungle gems with the release of the 'Respect EP' in digital stores worldwide.

Title track 'Respect' starts off the proceedings with a potent fusion of jazz licks, growling bass drones and rolling, 2-step breaks topped off with conscious ragga vocals from renowned MC, Yush, and is soon joined by even more heavyweight bassline pressure with the head-nodding, dubby stepper 'Bad Man Ting'.

Up next we are introduced to the sublime 'Walk In The Jungle', a tearing amen driven jungle track backed up by luscious pads which pay tribute to the scene's Golden Era. Rounding off the collection we have the moody 'Chat Bout' which combines aggressive ragga outbursts with a combination of 2-step breaks and amen rolls, alongside monstrous Reese bass drones.

Hektic once again, delivers an essential selection of upfront, dancefloor focused jungle that'll be guaranteed to put the fire into any upfront jungle/drum & bass DJ's set. 
The Breakbeatscientist pick of the bunch... 'Walk In The Jungle'.

The Hektic, 'Taken EP' is available to purchase exclusively from Juno Download before going on general release, so get in there pronto before the masses do!!!

[VMRDT099] Hektic - Taken EP [Available From All Good Viral-Mental Records Digital Stockists Now!!!]

1/ Taken.

2/ Nah Dead.

3/ Dead Leg.
4/ Selecta.

Viral-Mental Records and label mainstay Hektic take you deep into the jungle with the 'Taken EP', featuring four heavyweight, contemporary jungle tracks which give a tip of the hat to those Golden Era sounds of '94-'96.

The collection is kicked off by title track, 'Taken' which fuses together crisp, stepping breaks and moody atmospherics coupled with a deadly reversed Dead Dred/Reese bass combo and iconic 'Predator' vocal snippets to cement that oldskool feel.
Up next 'Nah Dread' drops ruff and rugged ragga and haunting dub vox over a minimal 2-step break, evocative pads and bouncing bassline to deliver a powerful stepper, dripping with menace.

'Dead Leg' captures the very essence of mid nineties, classic jump up wih it's layering of obscure vocal samples, orchestral swells and rolling breaks, brought together by a massive, electrifying sine wave bass riff that would put the likes of Mampi Swift to shame.
Perfectly rounding off the EP we have 'Selecta', a potent blend of classic ragga vocals, bubbling bass notes and snappy breakbeats that's guaranteed to get your heart pumping, you head nodding and your feet moving. 

If vintage Tru Playaz, Dread Recordings and Trouble On Vinyl were your bag back in the day. or have inspired your musical directions today, then look no further than this fine selection of moody, jump-up junglism from Hektic here. You'll be glad you did!

The Hektic, 'Taken EP' is available to purchase from all good Viral-Mental Records digital stockists now, so get ready to do damage with these badboys!!!

[VMRDT063] Hektic - Suicide [Available From All Good Viral-Mental Records Digital Stockists Now!!!]

1/ Suicide.

2/ Suicide (DnB Mix).

3/ Suicide (SkorpZ Remix).

Hektic makes his return to Viral-Mental Records with the release of the brand new 'Suicide' single featuring three firing jump-up, drum & bass numbers including an exclusive remix from SkorpZ.

Hektic's original mix of 'Suicide' sets the ball rolling with it's 'hectic' (excuse the pun) fusion of tearing amen edits and rock solid hard-step breaks peppered with aggressive gangsta rap vocal snippets and gargantuan bass throbs like it was 1996 all over again. The 'Suicide (DnB Mix)' takes the foundations of the original and gives it a 2016 twist, powered by 100mph, breakneck speed breakbeats.
SkorpZ completes the trio of mixes with a huge dancefloor friendly rework which also gives a nod to late nineties jump-up, where stepping breaks and electrifying arpegiated synth riffs combine with a bouncy bassline that wouldn't have sounded out of place on labels like S.O.U.R. and Emotif back in the day!!!

If you are looking for some high-octane, unashamedly jump-up focused D&B then Hektic more than delivers the goods with 'Suicide'.

The Hektic, 'Suicide' single is available to purchase from all good Viral-Mental Records digital stockists now, so get ready to do damage with these badboys!!!
