London-based Exit Records is a forward-thinking drum and bass label, founded by dBridge in 2003. Focusing on deep, cutting-edge, often experimental and minimal DnB, ‘dBridge strikes a careful balance between releasing music that serves a purpose for dancers and thinkers alike’. Exit artists include well respected scene names: Skeptical, Dub Phizix, Calibre, Alix Perez, Fracture, Zed Bias, Fixate, Itoa, Synkro, Sinistarr, Gantz and more. From Dub Phizix, Skeptical and Strategy’s ‘Marka’ to Jubei’s ‘Cold Heart’, Exit keeps pushing boundaries.
Review: So what do we have here, we ask ourselves as we unwrap this tasty looking selection from Blackpocket and Steve Spacek, courtesy of the legendary Exit imprint. What we in fact have is a perfect example of soundscaping at its finest, kicking off with the aquatic drips of the title track 'ALAYLY', the stunning, lofi vocal work of 'Footsteps' and crunchy percussive leads of 'In Da Back Room'. Next up, the super trippy synth expanses of 'Organic Tech', followed by the electronic explosions of 'Sho U' alongside Fatima and the smooth soulful harmonies of 'Wake Up Feel Good'. We round this one up with a look at the 80's inspired drumwork and distant vocal presence of 'Worlds Together', polishing up an extremely interesting project from start to finish.
