DJ Hazard At Juno Download

Review: The wobble jump up pioneer is on fine, fine form at the moment. Having torn dancefloors apart with the incredible "Busta Move" earlier in '11, Hazard returns with one of his strongest productions since the Machete Mass EP in 2008. The delectable sounds of "Food Fight" have been blazing across the airwaves for the last few months now - expect uproarious bass pressure, spot on sampling, dramatic drops and grouchy, gritty bassline business before flipping over for the equally fabulous "Proteus". Here a tense, ticking intro leads into the creepy movie sampling and swaggering, slouchy bass driven beauty that makes up the main tune. A resounding thumbs up here!

Review: The Birmingham based jump up maestro that is DJ Hazard continues to stun audiences across the globe with his signature shade of D&B. And it's safe to say that the hype surrounding "Never The Same EP" is well and truly warranted. Kicking off with the title track, the echoing vocal sample immediately gives the tune an epic, almost euphoric, quality; add grouchy bass, chiming SFX and punchy drums to the equation and you have an anthem in the making. But that's not all, no; "Air Guitar" ups the ante yet again with punishing, gritty roars and growling subs. "It's A Secret" is another wobbly jump up banger with Hazard written all over it, and then "Do Without You" twists things up with more bass-driven badness. This comes highly recommended for all D&B heads.

Review: One of the True Playaz massive and a total legend in D&B, Hazard drops four new bombs on this lively new EP. "Psychedelic" lives up to its name with a range of perfectly arranged old vocal samples that Hazard drops with style over a fun jump-up beat. "Platinum Shadows" showcases some top drum arrangements, while "Against The Clock" packs some aggressive samples into the fun. "All I Can Say" wraps the set up nicely with some low squelchy bass once again anchoring rough and wicked beats. A legend who is just getting better, the Platinum Shadows EP is a must for D&B fans.

Review: Following on from the first Playaz Digital compilation, DJ Hazard is on hand to administer a devastating collection of official dancefloor anthems. Featuring "Busted", "Mr Happy" and "0121," not to mention the previously unreleased "Machete VIP", this is set to be a massive release for Playaz.

Review: A superbly executed EP here, with VIP re-works from some of the key bods from the Playaz camp - the ineffable don of wobble jump up, DJ Hazard and his cohorts Erb N Dub, Legacy, Original Sin and brother Taxman, plus Friction and Nu Balance and newcomer Jaydan. First up is a delectable re-interpretation of massive 2011 hit "Food Fight" which draws out the vocal and juxtaposes it with grizzled bass. Next is "Alaska (VIP)" which is a glorious, fast-paced explosion of sound, and special mention must be made of the wonderful "Casino" VIP by Original Sin plus mid noughties classic "Robocop" which is updated by Taxman. Jaydan rounds things off in rowdy fashion with a VIP of "Driller Killer". An expansive package and a must buy.

Review: A controversial character to choose for a Fabriclive album it must be said, but the Birmingham based jump up don is a much-celebrated icon of the D&B scene and demonstrates his skill and superior selection in the 65th installment of the Fabriclive series. DJ Hazard goes in hard with the selection, teasing in brand new material from himself alongside some VIPs of classics such as "Mr Happy" and "Food Fight" and hot new cuts from some less familiar faces and upcoming producers. Keeping things on the energetic, dancefloor and tech-y side, you can expect to see Noisia, Mampi Swift, Funtcase, Lynx in there alongside contributions from fellow Playaz signings Taxman, Sub Zero and Hazard's other moniker Dirty Harry, and a multitude of lesser known names. His aim was to create a live feel, warts 'n all, with as much unreleased material as possible and that's exactly what Hazard has done here. Salute!
