Dark Drum'n'Bass

Known as the Beast, SMYLA (Mute:8 Recordings, Jungle Syndicate) will destroy any dancefloor with his deep and dark break drive drum & bass. One of the up and coming heavyweights of dark drum & bass, the beast has made an impact with his aggressive in your face Dj sets by interacting with the crowds in a way only King Kong can achieve. In the studio he draws inspiration and guidance from only the best in the scene and strives to produce the darkest drum n bass without losing the soul and vibe, which he hopes will take your mind on a journey into the unknown. Just don’t close your eyes for too long, cos the beast will strike when you least expect it.

KATHARSYS (Forbidden Society Recordings) began in 2001 when Hugo and Tom began producing their first drum & bass tracks, inspired by the dark grooves and demented beats of artists such as Tech Itch, Dylan, Kemal, Konflict, Photek and Ice Minus, to name just a few. After countless hours of waveshaping and savage beat processing, the duo were ready to start releasing in 2004. KATHARSYS, from the ancient greek word "catharsys", meaning the emotional cleansing of the audience in relation to drama, is an extreme change in emotion. The main focus of the duo is to create intense sounds that evoke this kind of extreme changes, producing electronic music from darkstep to neurofunk hard drum & bass.
