FORENSICS

Dubstep/Experimental/Minimalistic

Krystian, also known as Forensics sent over a promo pack with some lovely tunes in it. Orignally from Bristol, where he still co-runs the Ruffnek Diskotek night, but has been based in London for the last 10 years.

Forensics has 3 albums already out on Digital Sin Recordings and in addition has releases on DubKraft Records & Eight:FX Records. His tracks have been played by the likes of Aquasky, Friction, Plastician, he's been interviewed on Radio 1 and has also been featured in many magazines including Mixmag. For more info and mixes check the very comprehensive Forensics Blog.

This first one is a very gentle, soothing on the ears lullaby. Try it.

Exile (Feat. Indi Kaur) - Forensics

These three off the Endgame Remixes EP especially caught my attention and I can't stop playing the Two Oh One remix!

Endgame (DZ Remix) - Forensics
Endgame (R. Demon Remix) – Forensics
Endgame (Two Oh One Remix) – Forensics [RUDEEE]

His latest EP drops today on Digital Sin Recordings. Go pick it up either at Digital Tunes or at Addictech.

For a little sneaky preview:

Wilderness – Forensics


safe.

P.S – Don’t listen to these on rubbish speakers as I’m sure you wouldn’t – and make sure you go pick up the 320s of the ones that take your fancy.

Introducing NERO

Now here is a duo that has really been catching people's attention with their banging bass drums and heavy basslines that seem to roll and skip into place so nicely. The two go under the name Nero - signed to Formation Records and have been producing tracks for them since 2004. They are formally known for their Drum & Bass but have just properly broken into the Dubstep scene with their brilliant Something Else EP.

Nero have had very big airplay support from radio DJs such as Joe Whiley, Rob da Bank, Zane Lowe, Pete Tong... as well as DJ Hype on Kiss FM.

Here is a mixtape from April 08 - if you haven't heard it already then you need to...

Here are two very lovely low quality examples, if you want to buy full 320s - get em here.

BECOME A FAN!

Now that we have a fair amount of traffic visiting our blog we wanna try and keep track of who you lovely people are. Hopefully you're loving the music? There's an extra special little treat for you below if you follow the simple instructions. I know most will, but not all have a Facebook account but I think it might be worth joining just for the treat!

We have just set up a Fan Page and have decided once we have at least 200 fans on the page then we'll give out the password to the track below. But... don't become a fan if you ain't a fan cos that would be silly. Get me.

If you haven't read the blog before then have a quick look over the posts below to see what kind of stuff to expect in '09. We properly started blogging from the end of November but there are definitely other jems before that.

Our aim is to promote and introduce artists from all electronic genres with an emphasis on the smaller/underground/unheard of producers.

We are big fans of Dubstep, however - "a tune is a tune" and we are definitely gonna stick to that rule.

***************************************************

Not many people have this tune (if you haven't heard it then there's even more reason to become a fan) but it was featured on Rusko's latest essential mix and has had a massive reaction all round. Some people may have ripped it off Youtube or Myspace but this is not good and it definitely isn't being given out easily. This is the full version at 192kbps. You're gonna have to wait for it's release, if it ever gets released, to pick up the 320. And if it does get released then NumberNin6 deserves all your money. Here it is... BOOM!

Breathe (NumberNin6 Remix) - The Prodigy
(*edit: unfortunately you're not allowed this. NO HYPE ALLOWED)

I hope this will persuade you to jump on board the new/upcoming blog experience.

NY RESOLUTION : MORE BASS ?

images by David Shrigley

Had a sweet night at the NYE party and played the midnight slot which was smooooth. Cheers to Zak for putting that on and all the work etc. Nackered now but got stuff to post so going to do a quickie with not much info but some tunnnnessss.

High Rankin is smashing it, this one has been around for a while but deserves more respect for quite how filthy it is. He also played an amazing set at Big Fat Trouble.

High Rankin - You, Me And The Devil

No idea really about this - just found it and love the sound. Heavy guitar cuts shoved with heavvvy beats. Turn it up full, shut your eyes and wait for the drop!

Amp Fiddler - If I Don't (Dubstep Remix)

Found this one on Tempa's Dubstep Allstars Vol. 5. Hadn't heard about Luke Envoy before but this is biiig. Original sound. Perfect 4am tune.

Luke Envoy - So

My new 'TOO MUCH FUN" mix is out tomorrow if I get any time to do the live take... expect 30 seconds max on each track.

All for now. Need sleep.
