New Album: Kabuki - Warrior Soul

Deep undertones, sophisticated mass appeal and a shift in his usual style, Kabuki returns after 6 long years with an album that's definitely worth the wait. Also known as Jan Hennig, the German producer offers a diverse LP with multiple layers and textures - an album for the car, house party of even chillin' out before a grand night on the rocks. Below is 'Just Hold On' featuring drum and bass vocal legend Jenna G, who lends her hand with a sprawling vocal that intensifies the track. The newsicmoos stand out tune is 'Rhodesia', which offers a catchy, soulful and playful production. An updated and successful attempt at liquid funk dnb, a type of dnb that has been missing from the scene of late. One to buy!

Enjoy.

Artist: Original Sin


Adam Tindall is rising high in the drum and bass ranks, though he hasn't always been releasing infectious beats under his solo alias Original Sin. His previous guise as part of Geordie duo G Dub became renowned locally and their skills didn't go unnoticed. Whilst performing at Area 51 his ability to positively demolish raves gained the much needed feedback from headlining acts, eventually being signed to DJ Hype & Pascal's Ganja imprint. He now leaves his individual footprint on the drum and bass scene, bashing out heavy stompers such as 'Don't Be Silly' and his remix of the Shy FX classic 'Rah'. Having released his first Original Sin LP last month called Grow Your Wings, his music is now out of the local and into the national.

This below is a track from said album and an example of his hypnotic work where a classic house vocal is cut and inserted over a junglist background, thrown in with some psychedelia, some soulful bridge undertones and a few subtle steel pan knocks.

Enjoy.
