Stereo One Music is the all Jungle sister label of Inner City Dance curated by Marcus Visionary, and the main home for his productions. The label's focus is on the original blueprint, heritage and melting pot of Jungle music with an eyes forward approach to up to the minute relevancy.
Review: It's a Toronto thing: Marcus Visionary laying down serious breakbeat pressure on Stereo One Music. Following massive cuts like 'Together' and 'Real Warrior', Marcus comes correct once again with each of these three supersized cuts. 'Stay' is the emotional cut of the bunch thanks to its sweeping pads and gentle piano strokes over the super hectic breaks. Deeper into the EP we stride to hit pure sub bass pandemonium and drumfunk chaos on 'Anytime' before 'You Rule' closes the EP on a proper jungle hardcore tip. It's a foundation thing.
Review: Straight up jungle business from Toronto on InnerCityDance's sister label Stereo One from one of Canada's most consistent and longstanding OGs Marcus Visionary. 'Sound Dead Tonight' bumps and grinds over one of the most iconic horn hooks ever sampled with velvet dulcets from Bandit Emcee while 'The Sound Killing Tune' (with Keon Love) girds up those loins with a direct and deadly Clipz vibe. Warm textures, lavish soul in the vocals and a ruffhouse flavour that'll have you moving for days. Reload!
Review: Coming in with the fractious jungle that you need right now is Marcus Visionary, a long-term member of the scene with a rich pedigree of releases across a whole range of labels. This time around he's on his own Stereo One Music and Together is a five-track EP that channels the jungle heritage he's done so much to promote. 'Hide & Seek' sets the vibe right away, with shuddering breaks and diving drums rolls forming the skeleton of a body that's packed out with warping bass notes and rave sampling. 'Vibe Inna 85' is the other highlight, with a catchy, soulful sample that floats above its stuttering patterns of breaks and off shoot bass stabs. A top EP from a top producer.
Review: Jungle legend Marcus Visionary's brand new label, Stereo One Music, has its first release courtesy of the main himself and boy, it's good. 'Do You Want Me' is the more mellow of the two, clattering jungle breaks hit you fast but they're paired with a sense of soulfulness, making a tune with a cool new-school-old-school feel to it. 'Try It' is the bad-boy of the single, with a rotating, pulsating bassline that flows wonderfully and is just made for sound-system. This tune just flows and flows and flows, it feels so natural and just so, so heavy at the same time. This release is proper old-school jungle, full of constant switch-ups and never-ending energy.
