FIVE PLACES PROVIDING INNOVATIVE DRUM AND BASS
SOFA SOUND
Coming out of the depths of Bristol and being sparked by the man, DLR, Sofa Sound bring a plethora of flavours that can be drawn out of drum and bass. With a keen emphasis on promoting the up and coming talent and not being pigeonholed to one sub genre: the sounds coming from the sofa are always experimenting and poking around with the fun and possibilities that drum and bass holds no boundaries to.
MONK AUDIO
Monk Audio are based in the capital and are always presenting a forever differing style of drum and bass upon every release. From the euphoric piano-based chiller of Cardinal Sound, to the hard bass hitting and techy drum infused EP by Erritate, you can expect to always find a sound that is soothing to your ears.
BOEY AUDIO
Derived from the Irish free party scene and with the need for expression of their own unique sound, this label started from the underground up and are dedicated to bringing a wide range of naughty numbers to the listeners. An authentic and rich ear for innovative drum and bass sounds is what Boey specialises in, always raising the bar with each release.
CRITICAL MUSIC
GRID RECORDINGS
One of the powerhouses in the history and development of drum and bass. From an idea thought of in a flat in London, label owner, Kasra, has committed a lot of time and energy into creating a firmly established mothership for all things under hard hitting and original drums.
When it comes to dancefloor killers and tracks that’ll melt through walls and leave you mentally and physically battered, Grid has got it covered. With an impressively large roaster of talented artists, and upcoming and renowned legends in the scene, all releases are set to knock your socks off and call you a prick.
