From Official Site :
During the 1990's producer and guitarist Mark Hawkes collaborated with producer (Dub Maestro) Syd Crossley to form 'Boom Devil'.
Coming from different musical backgrounds helped to define a sound that is unique only to them. Over the years they teamed up with a variety of different vocalists to arrive at their debut album
'Rumble'.
These include the wonderful 'Christine Leach' ( Baby Fox , William Orbit and co-writer of 'Ray of Light' for Madonna ), the sensuous 'Nina Perry' and 'Gez Scott'.
The sound has a cinematic feel with a hint of 70's B- movies and ranges from laid back to up tempo. The title track of the album 'Rumble' achieved much acclaim on the club scene and the album was
featured and loved by the late and great 'John Peel' on his radio show.

Le dernier album de La Phaze est arrivé ! Je me calme, je respire et je revêts mon habit froid de chroniqueuse qui va oublier le temps de ces quelques lignes qu’elle est dingue de ce groupe.
Donc, La Phaze, depuis Miracle paru en 2008, j’étais à l’affût, impatiente, et Psalms and Revolution est là. Plus de trois ans d’attente, mais, entre temps, les membres fondateurs du groupe ont
été bien occupé, le guitariste, Arnaud Fournier est parti accompagner la chanteuse du projet Clytem Scanning sur scène, quant à Damny Baluteau, le chanteur, il a fait un tour du côté du « Bal des
Enragés » et nous a, au passage, gratifier d’un très bel album solo (objectivité, objectivité, objectivité…).
Je l’avoue, la première écoute m’a déconcertée, le groupe donne l’impression de reproduire le même schéma que ses albums précédents. La Phaze se caractérise par un mélange de punk, drum and bass,
rock, bien identifiable et on le retrouve ici, sans ajouts ou renouvellement apparent. Je persévère, et je finirais bien par considérer qu’il s’agit du seul défaut du disque. C’est avec plaisir
qu’on retrouve le chant toujours plus affuté et ses lyrics coup de poing, notamment sur « The Battle » (premier single à sortir en duo avec Zhi de Puppetmastaz), Psalms and Revolution, vaguement
inspiré far-west et Magnetism !
L’album est quasi-exclusivement en anglais à l’exception du très sombre Temps de chien, qui évoque la mort, le meurtre, The Battle et Saints … En définitive, les dix titres proposés par La Phaze
s’avèrent plus qu’efficaces, alors oui, la recette est la même, mais le plaisir est toujours là, bien insensible celui qui ne remuera pas en les écoutant ! Un peu d’amour quand même avec
Searching for you, paroles simples voire répétitives, d’une manière générale, c’est ce que l’on peut constater avec l’écriture en anglais, moins riche que les textes produit en français. Juste un
bémol pour Control Panel, qui dénote un peu de l’ensemble…
En ce moment le groupe se produit en Espagne et courant avril repasse par la France, guettez les dates sur leur MySpace, sur scène vous allez assister à une explosion, ils vont vous emporter dans
leur sillage, ces garçons sont des piles électriques !
Tracklist :
01. Dedicated life
02. The Battle
03. Psalms and revolution
04. Magnetism
05. Control panel
06. Searching for you
07. Secure world
08. Temps de chien

X Makeena, derrière un nom pareil on s'imagine un groupe de techno/trance...Je vous rassure, il n'en n'est rien. Derrière l'oeil est plus complexe. C'est un savant mélange de dubstep et
d'electronica nourrie d'influences hiphop et de drum'n'bass.
Quelques gouttes de ce mélange suffisent pour vous emmener vers le futur et vous donnez un aperçu de ce qui nous attend : un paysage désolé et dévasté, où la machine prend peu à peu le
contrôle.
A la première écoute vous serez surtout scotché par le premier titre (Tumbleweed) qui est tout simplement énorme (votre tête remuera automatiquement d'haut en bas). Ce morceau vous poussera à
remettre la galette dans le lecteur et vous découvrirez au fur et à mesure toute la richesse de l'album qui se bonifie au fil des écoutes. Au rayon des featurings, c'est très sympa aussi :
Bleubird, Robert le Magnifique et Arm
Mais surtout ne les ratez pas en live s'ils passent près de chez vous. X Makeena se démarque sur scène en y intégrant costumes, décors et créatures mystérieuses. Toute une mise en scène pour
donner vie à leur univers.

It's not so uncommon to see classically trained pianists turn to electronic music production. After all, it's not a huge stretch from the piano to a midi controller keyboard. It's considerably
rarer to find producers who are actually cellists and violinists by training. But Rena Jones is certainly not your garden variety producer. She's a multi-instrumentalist and sound engineer with
more than 20 years of classical violin study and 12 years of the cello behind her. That background is reflected in Indra's Web, her fourth solo album and the first on her newly established label,
Cartesian Binary Recordings.
Indra's Web weaves together weighty downtempo electronica with swooning modern classical, with Jones backed up on more than half of the album by three string players from the New Millennium
Orchestra. Jones is also credited with vocals, mixing, programming and Rhodes, and the album also features a live drummer, a clarinetist and a vocalist.
In addition to the graceful strings, the album is marked by a hefty bottom end and gently skittering percussion. And the intricate and spellbinding compositions, which do full justice to the
album's name. Indra's Web is a metaphor found in Buddhism and Hinduism for "the structure of reality, representing the interconnectedness and interdependency of all things, describing a rich and
diverse universe where infinitely repeated mutual relations exist between all its elements and entities."
That's as good a way as any to describe the music. It immediately grabs hold of you and sucks you in but the songs are not so easily digested on first listen. They're subtle and, like elaborate
labyrinths, they take time to reveal themselves. You need to explore the nooks and crannies before you can find your way out. But they're beautiful, enchanted labyrinths, green and flowery, and
time moves in hazy slow motion inside them.
I will resist the urge to discuss individual songs (except to say that the one-two punch of On the Drift and Point of Existence is a knockout). Suffice it to say that Indra's Web is an extremely
rewarding album and unique in the way it combines beat-driven electronic music with classical moods. It's seamlessly done, blurring completely the lines between genres. It's as good an
illustration as any of the inevitable futility of categorizing art. This is simply beautiful music that will endure.

Featuring on various 12"s and compilations from well respected labels, including Hospital and Innerground, Utah Jazz has tended to target quality and substance rather than focusing on the
quantity of output or capitalising on popular trends. Releasing his debut artist album, "It's A Jazz Thing", on Bryan G's V-Recordings offshoot Liquid V, Utah Jazz has cemented his position as
one of highest calibre producers that would currently be categorized under the ever-broadening umbrella of liquid funk. Whilst several highly credible drum and bass albums have been released in
recent months, to a greater extent than has been accomplished so far this year, Utah Jazz has achieved a balance between conveying a cohesive theme and displaying an uncompromising attitude
towards diversity and character. The consequence is a collection of complementary tracks that are likely to be on rotation at home or in the car for longer than is usual for drum and bass.
Whilst other influences are apparent, the core of the 12 full tracks and 3 interludes that comprise It's A Jazz Thing is highly reminiscent the raw original sound of disco. Setting the tone,
"Feeling Inside" begins the album with spoken word snippets and layered vocal samples, the powerful tight breaks highlighting the fact that not all modern soulful drum and bass is necessarily
"liquid". Raising the energy levels with a full vocal, intensifying build up and a drop that releases a catchy hook, the album's second track "Back in Time" has been popular with DJs whilst
receiving significant airplay on BBC 1Xtra. Following on, "Mesmerize" is the album's first subtle roller and the deep jazz sound it encompasses is found again later in the likes of the reggae
tinged "Riddim Track".
"Piano Interlude" is one of three interludes that divide up what is a well-structured album. Whilst they do a job, they are perhaps generic and typical of a dnb producer working at a lower bpm.
Additionally, there are tracks on the album that, whilst not distracting from the overall quality, are not executed as effectively as others. Unfortunately the final track, "Acoustic Jam", sounds
less atmospheric and slightly immature when compared to many of the others. Leaving the end of the album isolated to a degree, it was also slightly disappointing that the collaboration with
Atlantic Connection, "River Track", was not more arresting considering the strength and originality of Atlantic Connection's recent releases.
The deep, soulful and more euphoric aspects of early house are also smoothly captured. "Runaway", a previous single, features a familiar sounding warm 80s soul style vocal and the stripped down
"The Message" is reminiscent of original New York or Chicago house. In contrast, the pitched up "head in the clouds" sample gives "Cloud 9" a uniquely UK feel. In leaving the vocal quite exposed
alongside an understated bassline Utah Jazz avoids creating what could have been a more disposable peak time single whilst guaranteeing an instant reaction from fans of old skool hardcore.
It is, however, in the recreation of the sound of funk and original disco that gives "It's a Jazz Thing" its character. "The Only One" encapsulates the album's mood more than any other track and
will probably be recognised as classic in years to come. An ideal summer anthem with each element, including an uplifting vocal, complementing the other perfectly, this is a sultry yet emotive 6
minutes evocative of idealisations of Detroit or New Orleans. With characteristically effective percussion, the more relaxed "La Cinta" continues this theme and is as fitting for Sunday mornings
at home as it is in the car or as the soundtrack to evening at a beachside bar. "Funkless Life", produced alongside Soulmatic, is slightly sweeter and is comparable to several tracks that have
been released on V since Marky and his counterparts exploded on to the scene in 2001.
With "It's a Jazz Thing" Utah Jazz has provided enough soulful energy to please summer ravers and enough depth and diversity to please more dedicated dnb fans. It is the intrinsic underground
nature of drum and bass that often results in the potential of a particular style not being fully explored or perfected due to producers consistently seeking originality or aiming to balance a
recent period of one style's dominance by taking the music in the opposite direction. What Utah Jazz has proven is that, although this album may not appear as original as those in recent years by
Commix, Matrix and Futurebound or others, sometimes using a particular sound in a slightly different format, or crafting songs so that a style's potential is fully realised, can be just as
innovative as more obvious attempts to create something fresh.
Most importantly however, and a rarity in drum and bass, he has produced a textured and themed album that is more that a collection of 12"s. The execution of the ideas behind the album, its
influences, and overall quality, provide it with the potential to be a critical success outside of drum and bass. As vinyl sales fall it is vital to gain support from people who have diverse
tastes and do most of their listening at home, from the people who bought Timeless and New Forms. Utah Jazz has the product right, the marketing and PR may be more difficult.

Note :
From Myspace :
By the end of 2003, Mourah starts his musical carreer with the release of his debut album FROM ONE HUMAN BEING TO ANOTHER. It is a fine and pure piece of work that finds its centre in a raw blend
of acoustic and electronic sonorities.
Author composer arranger and performer, he brings us here an ensemble of diverse themes in their intensity and style: «It is not a homogeneous album with tracks following a logical sonority in
order to set a scene in the listener’s imagination. It is rather a kind of collection of my first (serious) musical attempts as a composer exploring different fields such as trip-hop and
drum’n’bass amongst others…Therefore there is no main connecting thread running through the tracks, here what links them is the rupture from one to another. It is not an one-hour single journey
but rather eleven journeys of five minutes each».
In sum, it reflects shared experiences first with a funk band called Anticlockwise in Geneva (1995) and later with his friend Dj Kmi (co-founder of Geneva collective Audioactivity) in the quest
of the art of djing by mainly mixing drum’n’bass and breakbeat tunes.
It would finally be the Portuguese independent label Nova Zona/ Zona Musica to give him the first chance of showing his skills. Aware of his lack of experience they bet, nevertheless, on the one
hand on his sensitivity and on the other hand on the cultural richness an early immigration to switzerland might have given him. It is in some sense, on a personal level a return to his roots, to
an unknown country after his father's death. A page is now turned and many more are about to be written. To our concern, musical ones.
FROM ONE HUMAN BEING TO ANOTHER was nominated for best national album 2003, at the Dance-Club Music Awards, rewarding alternative and electronic music both Portuguese and international. For him
the highest point of a global acknowledgment by the media and specialized press.

‘Seba & Paradox Beats Me’ features 12 tracks of Deep, Melodic and truly Timeless Drum and Bass. The Vocal talents of New York resident Robert Manos are present throughout the cd; in tracks
such as DJ Fabio’s favorite ‘Cant Let Go’, DJ Flights top 2005 track of the year ‘Stone Cold’ and the awesome and emotional ‘Last Goodbye’. The tracklisting really shows both of the labels
diversity with the Source Direct-esque ‘Its Not a Dream’ and ‘No Words Can De-scribe It’ right through to the 1970’s Funk grain of Paradox’s ‘Futures Extinction’ and the dark vision’s of Seba’s
‘External reality’. In all, this is a CD that will never gather dust on the shelf. Too much of today’s Drum and Bass doesn’t have that shelf life that can be played for years to come. Identity is
everything in music. This IS Seba & Paradox at their very best. Enjoy!.
