Review: Blissful, ice cold euphoria. What better set of emotions to feel when diving into a project eh? Those are the exact feelings that rush to the surface whenever we take the time to explore an MKII project in full, with this latest 'Home' LP on Four40 being more of the joyous same. From start to finish this EP peppers your serotonin with room shaking harmonic beauty and thunderous breaks-driven rhythms, dipping and weaving into more garage-sentric themes from time to time as well. The mechanical drum squelches of 'Blue Skies', the intense bass belches of 'Touch Me' and swampy percussive drips of 'Check Dis' would be our immediate stand outs from the project, but we couldn't recommend exploring it from start to finish any higher!

Review: We have long been of the opinion that MKII is one of the most gifted soundsmith's working in and around breaks and garage music today, so to see him land on Four40 with a full length collection is a very exciting thing to take in. He delivers 10 absolute masterpieces, exploring the most emotive ends of the garage spectrum, all laced with gorgeous drum processing and vibrant layouts behind, from the more gnarly synth injections of 'Change' to the floaty backdrops of 'Halo' and clunky percussive flicks of 'Fuse'. With the whole EP swimming in such a fabulous sense of sonic character, it's almost impossible to pick favourites, with this being a must listen in long play format. If we had to pick 2 tracks to sell you the project however, the bubbling minimalism of 'Grow' and stunning vocal manipulations of 'Shadows' would be our two stand outs!
Exceptional work from an exceptional producer!

Review: The evolution of the relationship between MKII and Four40 has been a fabulous thing to witness, seeing the quality of every EP go up each and every time. This latest two track display once again gives MKII the platform to explore his spacious, euphoric take of breaks and garage, always pushing the boundaries further into the unknown. We kick off with the skippy drum textures and floating atmospheric beauty of 'Vault', a blippy masterpiece of padded texture and futuristic breakbeat action, again showcasing exactly why we rate MKII so highly. The flip side then sees us take in 'Conduit', a journeyman of an arrangement, exploring emotive harmonic structures and grizzly reesey bass switches, culminating in a huge final design.

Review: Dansu Discs is a record label based in Manchester bringing you electronic music from around the world. MKII lands next on the label for an nifty six-tracker fuelled by breakbeats that hark back to the glory days of '90s warehouse raves. Shut up and dance to the proto jungle of "Flashback" then step back in time to the second summer of love on the rave euphoria of "Can U Feel It" before the retro hardcore stormer "Get Funky" hammers the message home, followed by a strobed-out and banging techno remix from Bailey Ibbs.

Review: The quality and consistency of the Four40 release schedule over the last couple of years has been near enough unrivalled, especially when it comes to their incredible line of UKG drops. Next up from them we explore some of the best bits of that run. Just looking at the artists involved is enough to get any selector salivating as we see fantastic inclusions from Deadly Habitz, Patrick Kane, Kells, Yemi, Burt Cope, Vital Techniques and so many more. There are a couple on here that have really stood the test of time in our eyes, including the Hybrid Theory remix of Blakk Habit's 'Like You', which has been causing damage in the dances ever since the raves began to reopen. We would also include Joe Burger & Dread MC's wicked collab 'Vibe' in that list of top tier inclusions, alongside George IV's 'Gettin' Your Love' and of course 'Faithful' from BWK Project. More power to the Four40 crew, who continue to impress at every turn.

Review: With a number of super enjoyable releases in recent times, the link-up between the futuristic sounds of MKII and the veteran run-outs of Four40 Records always spells out a good time. We kick off this brand new EP with a look at 'Kontakt', a typically futuristic combination of hard-hitting subs and shimmering chords, followed by 'Set Up', which again sees MKII deploy some of his classic bass manipulation techniques, this time topped with crispy UKG rhythms to match. Finally, 'Signal' unleashes a throwback style moogy bass lead, which gives the track the perfect amount of skank-ready energy to smash down the doors to any party.

Review: Four40's recent run of releases has been something very special indeed and this latest six track selection from MKII is a real look into how forward thinking the label has become. 'Roads' is a stunning three track journey, exploring the moodiest arenas of UKG through haunted pad textures and introspective harmonic layering, with MKII's ethereal production style being highlighted within this extended track format. It's a quite phenomenal body of work and when coupled with three fabulous remixes from MMEE, Earthnut and himself, it forms up into one of the strongest garage drops to grace 2020 so far!

Review: As far as labels go, there aren't many who have been floating around the bass music scene for as long as Future Follower Records. It seems that they have a point to prove here as they unveil an absolute goliath of a project, featuring fifty stunning original creations, packing a perfectly processed punch to round out 2019. The project as a whole finds itself landing between bass, breaks and garage, with some incredibly catchy productions involved, including Dephex's warbling 'Warfare', the super metallic shuffles inside the Bean VIP mix of 9TRANE's 'Heard Me' and the bass blasts of DubReaper's 'Ask Me'. There is something for everyone on this massive selection, giving the Future Follower camp a perfect send off to 2019.

Review: Alright, we really need to work out just what the hell is going on at Four40 records, because their current run is starting to get a little bit scary. For the sixth week in a row we see them unveil and absolute corker of a drop, this time from the rapidly rising sounds of MKII, who touches down with two heaters. We kick off with the title track 'Pull Up', a naughty expansion of standard UKG themes, laced with majestic chord movements and cinematic atmospherics. Following this we then land on 'Warm It Up', a more moogy roller, perfect for switching up the dance.
