K Jah, Sola, MC Fearless & Mista X - "Party Over Here" - (4:23) 175 BPM
Guzi & Plasmator - "In The End" - (4:28) 174 BPM
Played by: Brian Brainstorm
Review: Northern banger brigade GTA are marking a big old decade in the game with this walloping collection of beats across the spectrum. Delivered in 10s over five different themes from classics to remixes to floor-scorchers, the end result is an excitingly varied and feisty 50-strong spread of drum & bass perspectives where vibes range from Conrad Subs' utterly gully jungle vibes on his remix of Sl8r's 'Facking Jungle M8' to the thundering dancefloor wallops of Cliques' remix of the label bosses 'Pico De Gallo'. No strong is left unturned throughout the collection as we're just as like to be refreshed by liquid (Pyxis & Maykor's 'Guardian Angel') as we are flattened by venomous, laser-kissed neuro blasts (ICU's remix of 'Rip The Roof Off') Crash bang wallop what an album.

RISE - "In Your Arms" - (4:27) 174 BPM
Review: As 2023 starts to wrap up, Manchester label Nuusic take the time to reflect on the year they've had and bring their many releases together in one comprehensive collection. Looking back over key releases such as Guzi's album Goldstone Life, Grimesy's 'Voices' and Conrad Subs' 'Don't Blame The DJ', there's a powerful range of party starters, bubblers, skankers and slappers. To pick just a few highlights from 30 is pretty hectic, but Tweakz' jazzy planet stamper 'Love & loyalty', Rise's creeped out 'Intertwined' and Guzi & Epicentre's walloping 'Rate My Switch' are a great place to start. If you've got any holes in your Nuusic collection, now's your chance to get stuck in.

Set The World Alight (Sola & Daida remix) - (5:39) 174 BPM Hot
Review: Following their belly-busting 'British Fry Up' EP earlier this year, UK duo Change Of Pace set the pace with this skin-rippling vocal anthem with Sammie Hall - 'Set The World Alight'. Comes in three powerful flavours. The original is a big dreamy breezy with springy breaks and subtle sense of the majestic while pyxis adds her bittersweet soulful signature. Looking for a little more dancefloor wallop and theatre? Head for Sola and Daida's twist and start setting the floor alight.

Sola & Jfal - "Dance In The Rain" (feat Freddy B) - (4:30) 174 BPM
Sola & Conrad Subs - "Squeeze" - (5:14) 174 BPM
Review: Buss out your brolly, grab your galoshes, wriggle them wellies; Sola are back on Nuusic, they're bringing their pals, and they really couldn't give a monkeys about the weather. A thoughtful, well-measured grizzly head-nodder, 'Dance In The Rain' sees them linking with long-time friend Jfal and MC-du-jour Freddy B. It sets the perfect scene for the rest of the EP: loveable jungle rogue Conrad Subs links in for the almighty 'Squeeze' AND a killer remix of 'Dance In The Rain' while Sola go solo for some addictive skanky panky on 'Ska Tissue'. Perfect, whatever the weather.

Stars Align (feat Lauren Rose - Guzi remix) - (5:33) 175 BPM
Blowback (feat Whiskey Pete - Debice remix) - (4:27) 174 BPM
Review: Manchester's Sola return to their massive debut album from last year with this equally hefty remix collection featuring a wide range of impressive, high grade names. ESKR, Guzi, Cliques, Plastmator, Shayper, Pyxis and Antagonist are just some of the top shelf names at play here as we're whipped across the dancefloor continuum relentlessly in a similar spirit to the original album. Every remix is a highlight but Cliques' devastating twist of 'Pico De Gallo', Clarkey's ultra-stomp twist on 'Trust Grit', Antagonist's deep rebuild of 'The Drift' the Perplex's BBK-level tear-up of 'Maintain Thine Hue' are some of the biggest stand-out bangers on here. Time to get starry eyed once again!

Bill & Ed - "You Know I Need You" - (5:19) 58 BPM
Xian Juan - "Stimulated" - (4:22) 175 BPM
Review: Bill & Ed's burgeoning Jungle Tings imprint continues to explode all over the gaff with this monster 21-track collection from the very forefront of international breakbeat craft. Featuring a whole cast of names from their native US stomping ground plus select artists from around the world and UK, the vibe is consistent and uncompromising... Pure contemporary jungle crafted with no other intention than to make you move, sway and let loose. Highlights include the jazzy rawness of Kool-Aid Kemist's 'Something Fresh', the pounding 4x4 hardcore heroics of Smurf's 'Old Skool' and the mile-a-minute tear-out bubbles of DJ QT's 'Right Here'. Friends for life yo!

Blowback (feat Whiskey Pete) - (4:57) 174 BPM
Review: The hardest working troupe to come out of Manchester in recent years, Grand Theft Audio bossmen Sola finally reveal their debut album. Proud champions of all styles and subgenres of drum & bass, their album 'Stars Align' brings together everything the trio are about... And plenty more. Highlights include the absolutely firing Latin banger 'Pico De Gallo', the glitchy Opiou-inspired cosmic beats piece 'Turncloak' and the absolutely firing 'Amazonia' which brings together pretty much every flavour of D&B all in one track. All this and plenty more, Sola have delivered something very special right here.

Review: Feeling blue? Don't worry, Riot Dubs have got you covered with these soul soothing emotional breezers from old friends and new. Akas and Duoscience are on hand with two introspective work-outs but Georgia Phoenix and Sola bring voice-of-the-moment Sammie Hall into the blend, top and tailing the EP with two massive vocal stand-out jams. 'Glass' is a yearning hit of triumph while 'Hands Of Time' signs us out with some epic deep space funk feels. Stunning.

Various
Nvrsoft & Sola - "Falling" - (5:22) 172 BPM
Debice - "Cycles" - (4:31) 174 BPM
Review: Grand Theft Audio 50 LP is the largest project in the label's history; a 50 track album featuring 25 brand new ones, and another 25 from their extensive back catalogue. They released them over four editions in late 2021,but here it is in its full entirety and, again, we'd like to stress that it's a whopping 50 tracks! From the fierce breakbeat science of Sl8r & Somebody Else's "Facking Jungle M8", to the dark side jump-up of Nothing To Lose & Echidna's "Cyclops" (Intraspekt remix), the widescreen cinematic rhythms of Cynical Gene's "Emerge" and Nvrsoft & Sola's emotive vocal drum 'n' bass roller "Falling" - there's plenty more where they came on the Manchester label's impressive celebratory compilation.

Review: As we see a radical takeover of a beautiful nation and its people take place - there's a melodic drum and bass label out there to remind us that wrongful occupation is not cool. In our thoughts is a hopeful swathe of liquid drum and bass, dub, and progression music,wIth some tear-out feature numbers appearing in tracks by Sola, Nagz and CLIQUES. Really this compilation is about its liquid sentiment, and on that tip we recommend Higher (Than)'s "Show Me The Future", Cyber Posix's "Regrets" and the subtleties fo Metcalf's "Skulk". Dope.

Sola - "Dreaming Of You" (feat Sammie Hall - Rowney remix) - (4:39) 175 BPM
Review: Ready for the remix! Sola and Sammie Hall's massive 'Dreaming' EP gets the remix treatment from a whole slew of talents. Aries lights the fire with a killer twist on 'Close To You' as the euphoric intro drops into something very dark and foreboding. He's in good company as many other step up with fresh new versions: Rowney shows off his deep and uplifting side on 'Dreaming Of You', Grand Theft Audio's own Vektral adds a whole new level of electrified grit to 'The Stars', American rising talent Airglo takes us around the solar system with his take on 'Lost In The Moment' while Jfal closes the EP with a savage tear-up twist on 'Hangar'. Bumping.

Review: Bringing the feels: Grand Theft Audio bosses Sola link up with the ever-present skills of songwriter Sammie Hall for five barbed soul originals that are all steeped in heavy emotion. 'Close To You' sets the scene with a fastlane bassline, Hybrid Minds style keys and Sammie pouring her heart out. Elsewhere 'Dreaming Of You' takes us up above the clouds, 'Another Lesson' is a contemplative, piano-laced cut drifter, 'Can't Let Go' is the big dancefloor bruiser while 'Lost In The Moment' plays the all-important lighter-raising moment. Something for every stage of your set, Sola and Sammie have smashed this one.

Review: Doe, a deer, a female deer. Ray a drop of golden sun. That's The Sound Of Music, circa 1965. Boh, a banger, an absolute banger. Whey, a drop of golden gunfingers. That's the 'Sound Of Nuusic', circa right about now as the Manchester based label let rip with their third V/A experience. Now an annual thing for the label, it's their biggest collection yet as it's super-charged with blaze-ups from the best in the new-gen game. From Sl8r's opener to Conrad Subs' grand VIP finale by way of cuts from the likes of Teej, Sola, Kuma, Epicentre, Kumarachi, Motiv, Selecta J-Man and many more on-point future headlining names, this isn't just the sound of Nuusic, it's the sound of now.
