Resoundsound

Came across this little review of my recent Secret Operations release… Well happy!

Resound - Second Thoughts - Secret Operations
Finnish producer Resound gets the considerable honour of being the first producer to get a 12″ to themselves on the mighty SEBA’S label, previously an outlet for solo production and the odd collaboration with the likes of Paradox and Jesper Dahlback. “Second Thoughts” is a monster of a tune, kicking off with shredded Hip Hop breaks building into a barrage of broken beats, filtered and echoed amen fills, an absolutely epic old school Trance kind of vibe and the sort of screeching teethgrinding bass switches that will have them screaming for a reload. Proper militant plastic, everyone who’s anyone has been on top of this one and I have too. Flip for a drum-centric workout with considerable rhythmic depth to it (and a punishing sub line!) but without the lunatic appeal of the A-side.
4.5/5 [ES]

With signings on such legendary record labels as Metalheadz, Function and Digital Soundboy, he’s quickly establishing his sound at the forefront of drum & bass music today. His tracks are now receiving well deserved exposure by a versatile cast of top DJ’s.

“Waterpipe” has had DJ support from Dylan, Randall, Ed Rush, Flight, and Bailey.

VAMPDJUK009 also features the track “Smartbomb” by “ASC”. Very few artists can lay claim to the amount of diversity in ASC shows. Although his forte is primarily drum & bass, ASC has never restricted his music to one particular style or genre. Growing up in Wolverhampton, London, and Bradford England, UK, James absorbed a wide variety of music and took his first steps into production and DJing at the age of 15.
James first track came out in 1999 for Nu Directions part of Good Looking Records. Since then he has released tracks on Looking Good, Outsider, Vibez, 720 Degrees and Covert Operations to name a few. Watch this space!

“Smartbomb” has had DJ support from ASC, Method One, Soul Intent, Doc Scott and Resound.
