Drumsound & Bassline Smith Release The Odyssey VIP and Iliad on Prototype Recordings Get it here - tinyurl.com/k6f9nca A legendary figurehead within drum & bass, Grooverider set up his genre defining Prototype Recordings label in 1993 and since then it’s remained one of the genre’s pillars. Remaining a definitive imprint and trendsetter from the beginning, Prototype has been responsible for an array of spearheading releases, maintaining their timelessness throughout the years and delivering cut after cut of undiluted talent. It was their combination of dancefloor accessibility and production finesse which made their discography stand out. From Ed Rush & Optical, Bad Company, to Dillinja and Photek, their output has pedestalled some of the scene’s biggest players. Over a decade on from their last release, they’re here to prove Prototype is still a contender, enlisting the help of Drumsound & Bassline Smith for a cutting-edge offering which continues their bass weight domination. For the last two years, ‘The Odyssey VIP’ has remained an elusive dubplate, in high demand across the community. Alongside Prototype’s return, ‘The Odyssey VIP’ is set to spark anticipation throughout cyberspace, a track which will not only reaffirm the label’s title weight claim, but also Drumsound & Bassline Smith’s ingeniously manufactured sound design. Exorcizing the same ferocity as its original, ‘The Odyssey VIP’ conjures a nostalgia which is pushed forward by crackling reese and heavily peddled bass. With stabbing, euphoric synths cutting their way through the mix, the breakdown takes you through a different hook, one which powerfully snares you with its crunching LFO. Stringent drum loops pay homage to its predecessors, although it platforms more contemporary production standards, demonstrating not just the extensive development of Drumsound & Bassline Smith, but also Prototype’s tastes and A&R work. On the flipside, comes ‘The Illiad’. Prototype has always been heralded as a label which can be used to track drum & basses progress and ‘The Illiad’ helps to express that. With melodic vocals moving their way into metallic kick and a fluctuating bassline, the producers come thick and fast with a pumping, stocky record channelling the same knife-edge technological mastering as ‘The Odyssey VIP’. For a comeback single, both ‘The Odyssey VIP’ and ‘The Illiad’ do Prototype justice; a return which has been long awaited by drum & bass fans everywhere.

Twenty years ago, a musical revolution was taking place south of the river Thames. Clubbers were congregating in areas like Elephant and Castle to listen to a seductive, swinging take on house music that would come to be known to the whole world as UK Garage.
In episode one of The Art of the Party, we head down to Vauxhall and beyond to meet up with a few of the faces who made UK Garage what it was. Without the contributions of Martin "Liberty" Larner, and Matt Jam Lamont, it's likely that UKG wouldn't have sounded—or looked—so instantly iconic.
Ending up at the Old Blue Last in Shoreditch for a very special night of garage past and present hosted by Desperados, why not immerse yourself in the world that put British clubbing back on the map?
