Crossfire EP -- Various Artists -- Out Jan 15th 2012 

Drumsound & Bassline Smith, Technique’s label bosses turn the spotlight onto a hand-picked selection of other producers in this EP. While remaining unashamedly D&B, these six tunes draw on additional influences of dubstep and electro to show off new facets to the genre. From the opening low-end salvoes of 2DB’s VIRUS, and into Tantrum Desire’s expert synth-manipulation in Uncontrolled, all the way to the final track,Replica by Erb N Dub & L Plus, we see multiple styles effortlessly twisted into the breakbeat and bassline paradigm. Along the way, we’re treated to a solo workout from L Plus in the form of Gas Grenade, a female perspective from Technique newcomer Dushi in Candarel, and Dub Foundation’s Atlantic, a departure from their usual style. Overall, this EP is a blueprint for bass-heavy music going into 2012. And, given that Technique’s releases have consistently received Radio 1 and 1Xtra airplay from the likes of Zane Lowe, Annie Mac, Fabio & Grooverider, and Annie Nightingale, it’s easy to see that these tracks are going to become a mainstay of raves and airwaves too.

DRUMSOUND & BASSLINE SMITH -- FREAK

LABEL: NEW STATE MUSIC

OUT NOW

Legendary Drum and Bass trio Drumsound & Bassline Smith return for 2011 with mainstream banger, Freak. Already grabbing the ears of Annie Mac, Skream! & Benga and Mistajam on Radio One, this tune is about to blow up in a big way!

DnB would not be the same without Drumsound & Bassline Smith (aka Andy Wright, Benjamin Wiggett and Simon Bassline Smith). Together they have body-slammed dancefloors from Derby to Durban and ingrained themselves as three of the finest DnB tastemakers on the planet through their label Technique Recordings, an imprint already into its 12^th year of killer dancefloor joints!

Always in hot demand, last year alone saw them remix everyone from Afrojack, Blame to VV Brown. Ever popular with the most respected heads of Radio One, where they regularly enjoy airwave time courtesy of Fabio & Grooverider, Zane Lowe, Annie Nightingale and Annie Mac who simply stated “We love them and have been supporting them since day one”.

Freak is an insanely addictive slice of DnB from start to finish. Delivered with a selection of remixes offering across the board appeal, expect to find a high energy Main Mix, alongside Crissy Criss’s slamming Drumstep Remix and Drumsound and Bassline Smith own Dubstep rework.

With support from the DJ elite there’s no doubt you’ll be hearing a lot of more of this dancefloor destroyer for months to come.
