Hijack & Skream: 'Retro' (Cultured) This duo kickstarts the debut release on this newly birthed imprint. This is a sort of a hybrid between the skipping, trebly hi end of UK Garage crossed with the bass, kick and snare combo familiar to lovers of Dubstep and Jungle / Drum 'N'Bass. The keyboard lines are like those favoured by purveyors of liquidised D'N'B and Deep House. On the flip is a more regularised take on the spaced out and deep dubstep template, made popular by the likes of Burial. The drop in the middle has an oscillating bassline that will be much to the delight of steppin' dancers no doubt. Made for the floor rather than the head.

What their label says...

Kicking off with a massive collaboration between Hijak and Skream, which is already blowing up as a massive dancefloor track, the label is set to follow through with other high profile artists that should see them quickly grow into a big proposition in this expanding scene.
