TEMPO

Tempo Records' 2nd album release and debut long player from Mancunian 'Owen Brothers' aka Response & Pliskin  "Ability II Corrupt" is a fully expansive set of tracks that explore the boundaries of drum and bass, breakbeat and jungle. Images of a far dystopian new world order are found. On "Repetitive Future" the pioneering & legendary producer Digital co-ops with Response in true functional form the realms of the drum and bass spectre which results in moody ambient deep pads, boldly constructed heavy beat structures, and blissfully melodic liquid breaks to full effect. The Mancunian duo continue to probe at the boundaries of the genre, introducing new themes and high levels of speaker-shaking production whilst still staying true to the original DnB remit.. All tracks mastered by the legendary Stuart Hawkes at Metropolis Mastering.

Hidden Agenda

One Time (Collectors Edition)

Another shot of classic DnB history presented on Tempo's Collectors Series - picture disc versions of classic UK ruffage and underground jungle.

Originally from Hartlepool, brothers Mark and Jason Goodings began releasing records in the mid-1990's and spread the output across labels like Metalheadz, Creative Source and Straight Ahead. Mark sadly died in 2016 causing an outpouring of love, respect and gratitude from the scene.

Three tracks here representing some of the creme of the duo's output. From the high paced liquid of "One Time" through the dark, neurofunk of "Just Me" and onto the slower, hardcore informed "Something Nu?".

Limited, one off, picture disc pressing. 


STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Tempo follow up on the Source Direct release with another imperative piece of UK DnB history - pressed onto slick picture disc. Hidden Agenda brilliantly combined liquid funk and dark styles of DnB into their own heady concoction that garnered respect from literally every corner of the jungle map - with both dancers, DJs and producers respecting their incredible legacy.
