Breaking through on Hospital Records in the early 2000s, Jonathan Stanley has developed a spotless reputation across all sides of the drum & bass spectrum. His label CYN Music has dented the dance with distinctive imagery and delivers with the same stark consistency as his own productions. A bona fide D&B ambassador.

LA-based young talent with a penchant for bass, we can thank Plastician's Terrorhythm imprint for introducing us to this hugely creative individual.

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.
