Providing an opening show for the world’s biggest drum & bass festival is no small feat. For a second year running, the Ram Records roster were given the chance to recreate Let it Roll’s dystopian feel through their sounds, with Calyx & Teebee taking on this huge task for 2017. Following anther seminal year for the festival, the imprint is releasing Calyx & Teebee’s opening ceremony in four parts; a carefully diced up package which will instantly transport you back to a defining part of Let it Roll’s history. Whether it’s the old-school sonics which first made Calyx & Teebee infamous, or their more contemporary bass-heavy switches seen throughout this year’s releases, each record demonstrates why the duo were brought on board to provide such an integral part of drum & basses largest event.

‘Immortal’ is the first statement of Calyx & Teebee’s successive career; its epic orchestral intro and layers of uplifting synth lull you into a false sense of security, highlighting the outfit’s deep trenches of musicality. The record then begins to roll out with manic drum beats and robotic vocal samples, dropping into an archaic drum & bass anthem which oozes with classic appeal. ‘Immortal’ then breaks midway, moving forward on stabbed note arpeggios and more subdued punches of bass. However once more you’re thrown through its motions, winding through a second breakdown which reiterates the track’s heavier elements.

Together Calyx & Teebee have brought drum & bass from the underground into a more renowned spotlight, whilst never losing the touches which made their sets so notoriously dangerous. And what better way to celebrate Ram Records’ twenty five year anniversary than securing another opening ceremony slot for longstanding members within their army of talent.
