Crissy Criss – Let Go Ep (Includes L Plus ‘More Than Ever’ VIP mixes)

February 27, 2012 - 8:50 am No Comments

If you know anything about dubstep or drum and bass, you’ll know
about Crissy Criss. He’s been at the forefront of the scene since he
was a teenager and, more recently, has been bringing basslines to
the masses through his weekly 1Xtra show.
The main mix of Let Go is the one for the 140 bpm crew. Weaving
together old skool sounds, including the classic Amen break, Crissy
builds an early nineties hands-in-the-air intro before dropping into a
full-on dubstep tear-out.

And, as if that wasn’t enough, there’s more to love on this release. The D&B Rollers Mix takes up
the tempo to full drum and bass speed, with floating liquid sounds expertly tempered by a
rough-edged low-end. Then, we have a remix from Technique’s recent signing L Plus, twisting up
the original’s sounds into a half-time D&B excursion. Finally, Mr Criss’s More Than Ever swaps the
euphoria of the title track for some good old-fashioned grimy bass and beats to make hardcore
D&B ravers screw up their faces.

This release is even more evidence that Crissy Criss has feet planted firmly in both junglist and
dubstepper camps. He’s got his finger on the pulse of both genres, so this is clearly music that
every bass-conscious DJ needs to be drawing for.

Crissy Criss – More Than Ever EP – Out Now – Technique Recordings

December 13, 2011 - 11:55 am No Comments

 

Crissy Criss  - More Than Ever EP 

Technique Recordings

Release Date: Sunday 18th December

Crissy Criss has been on the scene since the age of 11, but his work has only improved with time and his latest EP is further proof of this. Following tracks and collaborations such as ‘Kick Snare’ and ‘Tika Toc’, Crissy Criss has released a new EP of his own work, and it’s a smash.The radio 1xtra drum and bass guru knows how to blend different genres to create the perfect mixture for dancefloor mayhem.

This mixture of styles is showcased in ‘More Than Ever’; a space odyssey style build up leads to a combination of dark dub over a faster drum and bass beat that is out of this world. ‘Need me’ takes the record in a dubstep direction; this track is like a great 90’s dance tune updated with grimy dub beats. The strong vocal and piano threaded through make this a perfect club piece.‘Everybody’ is fast paced and gets faster and grimier as the beat goes on. A huge build up to the theme ‘Everybody in the club get hyper’ tells you what to expect when you drop this track. ‘Gangsta’ is a slower and more intense bass tune which starts with arcade effects and slow sirens. This is an original sound, which makes use of a broken up reggae styled vocal.

Crissy criss has a long history in drum and bass but continues to shine with this new EP, which demonstrates once again his ability to mix styles and still produce dancefloor smashing beats.

Dub Foundation are back with an EP that will knock your drumstep socks off…
The masters of drumstep have been working away in the studio to craft this 4
track monster sounding package. ‘Subsonic EP’ brings you four beautiful new tracks
from the pair behind such weighty mixes as Mr Blonde and Time to Burn.
Midlands production duo Mike and Lee are consistently at the top of their game
and ‘Subsonic’ is no exception.
The tracks all have that trademark style and sound combining drumstep with other styles,
and beats so confusing they can only mean dancefloor euphoria.
‘Subsonic’, ‘Speakerfreaker’, ‘On your Own’ and ‘Locutus’ are the four tracks on everyone’s mind.
Each brings a different asset to any Djs set list and each of these tracks showcase their heavy grimy
bass and quick beat perfection, in turn infused with synth and haunting robotic vocals.
Dub Foundation have once again smashed it and this extended player is another hit from the Technique duo.

‘Subsonic’ is OUT NOW!!!
