Breaking through on Ram's sister label Frequency in 2003, Nick Douwma has proceeded to blaze a trial through drum & bass and beyond. Every inch a live showman as much as he is a DJ and creative producer, his performances are a technical feat comprising many bespoke instruments that no other artist has.

Talk about high expectations. When London drum’n'bass duo, Chase & Status aka Saul Milton (Chase) and Will Kennard (Status) first laid down the tracks that would make up their third studio album, they were faced with a weighty dilemma: how to follow the sizeable footprint left by 2011’s multi platinum selling No More Idols, not to mention their hefty rep as festival headliners? The answer was found with Brand New Machine, an album that brims with surging, dancefloor anthems, dusty trip hop grooves as championed by the likes of Massive Attack and Portishead, and a collection of jungle and garage breakbeats that increase with substance over repeated plays. Meanwhile, brooding ragga harmonies and hip hop samples deliver an updated take on No More Idols’ anthemic, catch-all appeal. The overall vibe? An instantly memorable collection of swaggering cuts tuned to a club setting, hyped summer festivals and arenas alike.

Kallum Brookes aka K Motionz is arguably the most exciting and hotly tipped newcomer on the D&B circuit. Over the last 2 years he's cemented himself as a fan favourite across the globe and leads the charge of a pack on new producers cutting through. Having released his debut album The Evolution at just 19, he's since toured the world, performed at every major British Music festival and 2021 has seen his star continue to rise with heavyweight releases including 'Hack It', 'Reaction' feat IC3, 'Tell You', 'Round Ere' and more recently the massive 'High Note' feat Emily Makis which is getting heavy Radio 1 rotation.
