bass scene development

release that was compiled
by many well-known Drum
& Bass producers such
as: DLR , Ant TC1, Cease,

Young Austrailian Cam
McLaren has really outdone
himself here. He's slowly
becoming a force to be
reckoned with on dBridge's
Exit Records, putting out
great releases such as this.
Those looking for a major
club banger to fill a main
room might be slightly dis-
sapointed by this album,
but those who consider
themselves hardcore DnB
heads will struggle to find
another album of this qual-
ity this year. Consequence's
influences are wide rang-
ing, encompassing every-
thing from Ed Rush to Aute-
chre, all channelling into his
dark, moody beats. The
only criticism of the album
we have is that at times it
seems almost too dark, like
theres no light at the end of
the tunnel. But, gloomy or
not, there's no doubt that
this is an absolute must for
any true DnB fan.

Dutch producer Jeroen Snik has proved numerous times
he has many strings to his bow, ranging from techno and
dubstep to the all important drum and bass. After a host of
divergent tracks released under Hospital Records, Soul:R,
Renegade Hardware and Critical, Icicle signed exclusively
for Shogun Audio in 2008, and ever since he's showed no
sign of slowing down. He released his debut album, the
aptly named "Under the Ice", in 2011, saw him, at times,
combine his subtle techno elements with that 170 bpm
tempo, producing a well rounded and futuristically-orien-
tated collection. His his newest single "Problem" featuring
Mancunian Mc Skittles gives us a gritty and atmospheric
insight into his next album, due for release this November.
