1forty

Having been first founded back in October 2016, the 1Forty imprint has quickly pushed and risen to the upper echelon of bass, garage and grime labels currently operating in the UK scene. The founder and head honcho of 1Forty: Lockt, is known for his innovative collaborative approach to the label’s discography, always finding unique and creative link ups that the scene has been yet to see. The roster features a range of artists across grime and garage, including the likes of Zed Bias, Trigga, Chimpo, Prizma, Fish & Sherry S, Hamdi, Logan and more, with the output always improving. In 2021, MPH & Coco’s collaboration ‘Levelz 2 Dis’ became the label’s most successful project to date, featuring on numerous television platforms and gaining international acclaim. As far as labels go, there aren’t many that have roots planted in so many different areas of underground dance music, with the future of 1Forty looking better each and every day.

Review: It's been a short while since we last heard 1Forty on a grime tip, with this latest four track offering seeing them return to their 140-inspired roots with a collection of serious rave rollers. First up, Avaword & Frost deliver an eskimo-inspired instrumental in '7AM' with a blistering display of intense lyricism. Raybee and Rakjay then switching the vibe to a much more sublow bubbler in 'Where The Bar Is' next. We then jump into 'B.D.B', a serious system rattler provided by Buckley, jam-packed with sizzling subby energy, with Untrodden Grove's 'Abbies Nightmare' original then giving us an overpowering bass bullet to close.

Review: One thing we absolutely love about the 1Forty crew is the fact that they will constantly alternate their genre approach, working between bass, garage, grime and dubstep and always pulling incredible collaborations out the bag. We open up with the gnarly synthetic twists and hard hitting vocal arrangements of 'Informa', which sees the enigmatic combinations of Hayz & Josef team up with the legendary Killa P with hard hitting results. Next, Murder He Wrote & Logan team up to forge together a rave-ready weapon, stopped in old school toybox style synths and shuffling drum patterns, before Warwick sends us back into a wave of nostalgia with bubbling melodics toots and grimey bass expressions of 'Redux'. Finally, Fork And Knife makes his return to the label with a spicy box of fun in 'Dune', linking harsh horn stabs with vibrant percussive bites for a wavy closer!

Josef - "Shining" - (4:20) 140 BPM Hot
Review: Across their now extensive catalogue of genre-based releases, we always get the most excited for the grime drops as label owner Lockt gets busy putting together some fiery collaborations. First up, 1Forty regular Hayz arrives with a nostalgic grimey roller, topped by the legendary Roachee and super hard hitting Armour, who arrive with a ballistic vocal performance for 'Link With Dem'. This intro sets the levels high, but is still matched by Fork & Knife, who is joined by Jon E Clayface for a secondary showcase of grizzly grime energy on 'Come Correct'. Both of the vocals are lethal, but that's not all that's in the bag as Hayz then returns with the eastern inspired melodic twists and rave-ready synth work of 'Kyoto'. Finally, Josef supplies with uniquely produced sizzler in 'Shining', rounding off another very impressive body of work from the 1Forty crew!

Hamdi & Logan - "Bun Dem Down" - (3:49) 140 BPM
Fork & Knife - "Reptar" - (3:44) 140 BPM
On1 - "Ris Key" - (4:25) 136 BPM Hot
Review: The 1Forty team have kept it as consistent as anyone across the breadth of 2020, despite founder LockT operating pretty much solo throughout the course of the year. He looks to finish things off with a band as the sixth edition of their grime compilation series lands with some serious impact, kicking off with bassline vocal legend Bomma B linking up with Prizma & Muhla for a rave-ready vocal smash in 'Bully Boy'. Next, a killer duo emerges as Hamdi links up with the ever-ready Logan for 'Bun Dem Down', with Hamdi's quirky instrumental design providing another perfect base from which Logan is able to display his vocal mastery. Following that we have two powerful instrumentals as Fork & Knife firstly unleashes the powerful synthetic structures and crunchy drum slaps of 'Reptar', before rounding off on 'Ris Key', a 2-step inspired roller from On1, This is a perfect way to round off the year for a very special project indeed!

Logan & 9TRANE - "Evil Side" - (4:16) 140 BPM Hot
Hamdi - "Raw" - (3:50) 140 BPM
ManGo - "XO" - (2:48) 140 BPM
Review: For their fifth grime project, the 1Forty team really have gone all out, inviting some of the most popular names in the 140 scene to take part in this monstrous selection of bangers. We begin with Hamdi's 'Raw', a behemoth of a riddim, dripping with vibrant LFO energies and skippy drum structures, closely followed by the lethal steppers link up from 9TRANE and Logan entitled 'Evil Side'. We move back into instrumental madness next as ManGo delivers an old school squarewave explosion entitled 'XO', before YGG leap onto an incredibly energetic piece of production from 'JHuttz' on 'Royals' to round this one off in style.

Cold - (3:30) 140 BPM
Review: As far as years go, 2019 was easily the strongest on record for the Leeds based imprint we know as 1Forty. They kick off their 2020 with a serious bang on this one as LockT brings together the cold lyricism of Jon E Clayface and the haunted production of Prizma for a seriously tasty slice of new school grime in 'Cold'. The pair combine in infinite majesty with the spooky atmospheric nature of Prizma's instrumental providing the perfect landscape for Clayface to lay down a stream of hard hitting 16's, and the fantastic results are there for all to see!

Review: It's been a long time coming, but we are very excited to now see the 1Forty imprint dropping their releases through Juno, with this latest compilation project being the latest, showcasing just how strong they have become as a musical imprint and brand. They here return to their grimey, 140BPM roots with four absolute heaters, kicking off with a high energy, war-ready combination between the legendary Killa P and rapidly rising Fork And Knife. Next up, NothingNice arrives on production duty with more heavyweight flavours, over which Dizzle Kid & Killa P provide the vocal artillery before 9TRANE teams up with Fork And Knife for a monstrous 4x4 roller, dripping in OG grime energy. Finally, Hayz takes old school to an entirely new level as he employs super nostalgic synths and melodies over minimal, authentic drum patterns on 'High Top', to put the finishing touches on an awesome selection!

Review: There's been some seriously impressive movements coming out of Leeds of late, as the super popular 1Forty imprint continue their impressive run, this time employing the services of some UK dance music veterans. We see a fantastic combination here as Slay and Trigga join forces over a super skippy 140 sounding instrumental, coming to us courtesy of the man himself: Zed Bias. Overall, this track delivers on so many fronts, with the high energy instrumental providing the perfect base camp from which Slay and Trigga set forth, destined to duppy the dance with intense flows and sharp lyricism.

Review: The guys at 1Forty have had an excellent showing across 2018, with a multitude of explosive festival appearances, well received releases and new artists making them one of the real labels to watch in the new year. They sign out of December with this wicked new four track selection, featuring grimey heaters from the likes of Ali Mck, J Huttz, Arridim and Afterhours on production, alongside cracking vocal appearances from Lyrical Strally & KDot to add some additional spice. It's always pleasing to see underground labels pursuing different genre avenues, and 1Forty show no signs of slowing down whatsoever.
