FIS is a Wellington local who was a regular customer at the now closed Samurai Store (record store). Inspired by the new music he was purchasing at the time, FIS went hard to work at designing his own unique sound.

Blade Runner Vs Mr Explicit join forces. D&B with a heavy influence from the mid-90s jungle & Bristol style jump up sounds. This 12" is a banger.

"Andromeda" is the first single for the upcoming debut album by Deckard entitled "For A Better Tomorrow". The release heads off with the original version of "Andromeda", an incredibly well produced downbeat/electronica tune with a new twist that blends into a grooving sci fi dub/reggae part, refined with a catchy flute sample. Even though there is a dark mood in almost all of Deckard's music this great track should put a smile on everyone's face.

Manchester label Soul:R first launched back in 2001 with releases from Calibre, Marcus Intalex, Marky and more that firmly established them as the go to label for dancefloor friendly drum n bass that soothed the ears rather than assaulted them. 10 years on and they're still at the top of their game with this release from Dub Phizix. 'The Editor & Narrow Eyes. Featuring the vocal talents of Strategy, Fox & Chimpo. A real half time Hip Hop/Grime feel but the drums work hard enough to pull apart the dance,

Oxford/London/Leeds based newcomer Graphics is responsible for the first release on the long gestated Granholme label. Brian Eno was once quoted as 'not wanting to contribute to the glut of CD's' in the world. Granholme's ambitions as a label are modest, but if we can do anything to detract from the glut of painfully beige electronic music available in 2011 then that will be considered a small victory. The title track crossed our path in February of this year and was the catalyst for finally making the label a reality. It's blend of intricate percussion, pounding kicks and swamp voodoo atmospherics are bound together by a relentless forward momentum rarely heard. Were we not embarrassed by such brazen hype building we'd say it fuses classic techno to the jungle derived energy of early Big Apple releases. Shit, it's happened again. 'Name This' reigns in the most unhinged flailing of it's predecessor and revels in a focussed chain gang swing. Heavy on Dub'ish atmospherics and sweeping chords it's a more discrete animal than it's other half with methodically intensified tension threatening to swallow the arrangement whole. Exclusive to the digital version is 'D-Transition'. A listless voice unsuccessfully self interrogates as decaying minor chords mount a further assault on the listeners good humour. As things threaten to get overly oppressive a heavily dampened 4/4 kick leads into a rhythm section that gradually comes to the boil before locking into a series of percussion and bass led drops. Finally we have the Zoltan remix of D-Transition. Due to be used as a promotional tool in 1 the weeks leading up to release, it takes the original and adds some hefty drum programming along with a gloriously queasy new melody for the 4am push towards daylight.

Dan Gresham aka Nu:Tone came bursting onto the scene in 2001 with his debut vinyl release on John's Beta imprint - 'Grand Central' / 'The Boss'. Since signing to Hospital in 2003 has come through the ranks to become one of the most highly respected producers in the scene, with everyone from LTJ Bukem to Dillinja busting his tunes. Nu:Tone remixes are always guaranteed to please - whether it's the retro soul of his Spread Love anthem or the junglist wobble of his "Strictly Social" re-rub.
