MIXED BY HIGH CONTRAST + LONDON ELEKTRICITY
MIXED BY HIGH CONTRAST + LONDON ELEKTRICITY
2009 IS the year for drum and bass. Clubnight Hospitality have been packing out venues up and down the country; The UK’s radios have been lit up by the incendiary sounds of Pendulum, Danny Byrd and Chase and Status and festivals had their soundsytems rocked by drum + bass DJs and live acts. In light of this, Hospitality have called upon two of the scene’s heavyweights High Contrast and London Elektricity to put together a definitive guide for the nation, This Is Drum + Bass.
After his 2002 debut album True Colours received huge props from critics and fans alike, High Contrast became the name on everyone’s lips. Within no time, he has become one of the most revered and respected producer-DJs around. Releasing three massive albums and becoming remixer de-jour for the likes of Missy Elliot, The Streets, Adele and many more.
No slouch on a pair of turntables either, his mixing skills are in demand worldwide, winning countless awards including Radio One's Essential Mix of the year no less. Adored by both fans of drum + bass, house, rock, indie and electronica, High Contrast holds a unique position in the music scene – equally at home at midday on Radio One, as he is at 5am on the dancefloor at superclubs worldwide. Not only the biggest thing in drum + bass, but a producer whose ability to reach a wider audience through the accessibility of his music is unparalleled. The perfect choice to call upon for this album, High Contrast’s mix is upbeat and rolling, including tracks from Logistics Eastern Promise, Sub Focus’ remix of We Are The People (Empire Of The Sun), Cameo & Krooked Mindset, and his own remix of Imogen Heap’s Deadlock, plus tunes from the likes of Nu:Tone Battle Theme, Marcus Intalex Airborne and Cyantific 88mph.
Ramming venues, shocking crowds, leaving huge smiles from the Big Chill to Glastonbury and beyond, London Elektricity is a man with a rich musical legacy. With critically acclaimed albums, countless remixes and three highly-charged years of live shows under his belt, the past couple of years have seen Tony become the people's choice for their drum + bass news and upfront music as host of the multi award winning Hospital Podcast.
Truly a live wire on the turntables, expect the unexpected - LE’s mix contains tracks from the likes of Fantasia Fresh, Mistabishi No Matter What VIP, High Contrast Seven Notes In Black, Drumsound & Bassline Smith Clap Your Hands, plus Caspa’s dubstep remix of TC Where’s My Money, Sub Focus’ re-rub of The Prodigy Take Me To The Hospital and London Elektricity tunes including The Great Drum + Bass Swindle and All Hell Is Breaking Loose.
So there you have it. Two mixes from two of the biggest and most respected names in the scene, staked full with anthems, huge remixes of big crossover artists and exclusive tracks… This Is Drum + Bass!
