    1. LOGISTICS - Together (20th Anniversary Edition)

      Two decades ago, one of the most seminal drum & bass anthems was born. A timeless cut and a gem in the Hospital Records crown, twenty years on you’ll find it hard to step into a rave without hearing Logistics’ infamous “Together”. Originally released on the “Future Sound of Cambridge” EP in 2004, showcasing the then new-wave of Cambridge talent, “Together” has been championed by leading tastemakers throughout the entirety of their careers. Described by Fabio as his “rescue record”, “Together” is without doubt a special piece of drum & bass, transcending musical barriers and creating a sense of unity throughout the dance music community worldwide.

  • Techno

    1. BABY FORD - Built In (EP)

      Baby Ford is back being reissued again and we couldn't be happier about it. Few have ever matched the matter levels he achieved when it comes to deep minimal and tech house fusions. This latest on his own Trelik takes the form of three classic cuts from two much sought-after EPs - Built In and All That Nothing. The title cut is a shimmering and sublime fusion of rubbing low ends and icy hi-hats. 'All That Nothing' then picks up the pace with more dub influences and swaying drums and 'Plaza' has a tech house edge that makes for more driving grooves. Built In / All That Nothing / Plaza.

    2. PLANT43 - Concrete Echo EP (Transparent Fluorescent Orange Vinyl)

      Esteemed electro explorer Emile Facey aka Plant 43 is back on his Plant43 Recordings imprint. Despite being hugely prolific, the artist always managed to find fresh new creative ground with each new outing and Concrete Echo is no different. The title cut is a high-speed opener with shimmering lines, fizzing static electricity and drama in the chords that make you take note. 'Emerald Shift' is a broken beat kicker with raw claps and scintillating liquid metal leads while 'Raw Vectors' layers up acid wobbliness and textbook electro rhythms. 'Mist Memory' closes down with a melancholic vibe and heady synths that take you into the cosmos. Learn More
