Mafia Kiss (@mafia-kiss)

808 Breaks is a really refreshing sample pack for the breaks scene. The beats cover a lot of different, relevant styles the scene has to offer right now ranging from the classic booty break to the more recent bass style break. It’s packed with some seriously good percussion & top loops ready to fill the void on that beat you just can’t finish. Really impressed with this sample pack from Free Breaks Blog, well done. – Mafia Kiss

Martin Flex / Pure SX (@martinflex)

The new pack from Free Breaks is perfect for getting to grips with the booty breaks and 808 sounds. Well set out and really easy to use, this will be your first stop when you’re writing your next track

Se7en Deadly Breaks (@se7en-deadly-breaks)

Great sample pack. Love the 808 sounds and bass. There are lots of samples to work with. Fully supporting this and the blog. Also looking forward to using the one hit sounds.

Expect to hear some clips and sounds from the pack in our next release. Good work!

Skeewiff (@skeewiff)

Took the Sample Pack for a test drive yesterday. I was able to very quickly and easily construct the drum kit I was looking for from the well labelled one shots, and even found inspiration from the (also well labelled) loops. The SFX are great & the Vocal chops were an unexpected bonus. I found pretty much everything I was looking for… Good show

Mooqee (@mooqee)

“A great sample pack with some very tasty samples! Will be getting some use out of these. Fantastic!”

Atomic Hooligan (@terryhooligan)

These is a great pack for everyone from starter to pro. Grabbing a loop out of this pack to get a grove going is a great use of this resource. I will be doing exactly that. The single hits are great too for layering your normal drums. Good work guys.

Beatslappaz (@beatslappaz)

Full support from Juxtapose and Beatslappaz. One of the best breaks sample packs we have ever come across, with the percussion loops being a particular highlight. We don’t know who was behind putting this pack together, but I want to buy them a beer for doing such a great job on this one. If you write booty breaks, this pack is a must buy.

Andy Mcallister (@groundlevel)

A great selection of tools for the modern breaks producer

This years Noisily Festival is now less than 60 days away (get your tickets) and the countdown to mayhem has officially started. Today we have an exclusive Noisily Promo mix from one of the main players in the UK Glitch Hop scenes, Mike Wallis whose new project Krymes will be playing on the Noisily stage this year.

You can WIN two FREE TICKETS just by entering our competition.

Check the new directors cut of the 2014 promo vid, read our interview and check out the mix at the bottom of the page.

1. Thanks for taking the time to answer our questions. For those that don’t know, who are you and what do you do?

I’m called Mike Wallis and I run Colony Productions with Sam Ashwell. I Dj under the name Krymes with Ben Parker.

2. So you’re playing at this years Noisily Festival right? What are you most looking forward too?

I’m really looking forward to opening the Noisily stage on friday alongside the rest of the UK Glitch Hop family, the funktion one system and seeing Joe Ford and Skope play myself and just having the chance to spend a bit of time listening to wicked tunes in such a beautiful setting. I’m counting down the days..

3. Noisily is a fairly new festival to the scene, whats so appealing to the UK’s underground DJ’s and musicians and festival goers alike?

I think that the festival scene has changed quite a bit over the years, it’s not just a way of seeing bands play like it was when I was a kid and electronic music has really got a stronghold now but there are some really big festivals and some very commercial dance acts playing them. Noisily is fresh, the people running it are passionate about what they are doing and they seem to have seen a gap in the market with the situation with Glade Festival. We played on The Meteor stage at Glade in 2012 and it was one of the best gigs I’ve played to date, I believe that weekend was a turning point for what has now become widely know as Glitch Hop or mid tempo in the Uk and massive props to Andy Ellis and Lowri for curating that and getting us involved. I’d also like to thank James at Liquid/Noisily for getting us involved at Noisily this year!!

4. Mike you have been a part of the Glitch Hop scene from the start really. How have you seen things progress since the early days?

It’s come a long long way. Dave (Tipper) and I were writing beats at this tempo back in 2000 and so were a lot of other artists. Danny Breaks, Harmonic 33, Tipper, Luke Vibert, Push Button Objects, the list is extensive if you go back to where I believe it all came from. Others would say it started with the Glitch Mob, Opiuo, Bassnectar abroad but I think it is widely acknowledged that the Uk has always had a thriving bass and breaks scene. I came in to production back in the days of Hardcore and early drum and bass along side a whole heap of electronica and found sounds often referred to as Trip Hop, all the Mo Wax stuff, Ninja Tune. For me it is a combination of all of that and the more abstract sounds that Warp artists like Autechre, Plaid, Boards of Canada, Prefuse 73 were producing, I also have to big up Aphex Twin just purely on the basis he’s a living legend in my mind. There are no real rules in glitch hop and that is what makes for good music in my opinion, the freedom to do what you want.

5. And out of the new breed of artists that are emerging, who are your favourites?

There are a lot.. my favourites at the moment are Mouldy Soul and Skope if I had to pick two out of a hat but there is a real feeling that a lot of producers are pushing into this genre, certainly that mid tempo 95-115bpm window.

6. You run the long standing Glitch label Colony, alongside Vent, whats coming up?

I wouldn’t say we were necessarily a Glitch Hop label exclusively. We like to think of ourselves as artist based rather than genre based. Saying that however we have released a lot of music in that vein from Vent, Opiuo, Schema, Bran Richards, Mouldy Soul, Krossbow, Earegular, Tryptich, Dephicit, Crunch, Crush (one half of DC Breaks) but we’ve also put out stuff from Bit_Meddler, Kelpe, Point B, Sevenark, Cane aka Funckarma, Funkstorung, Loden, Lone Drum both remixes and original material along the way. Coming up this year we have some really good music we are very proud to be releasing from Nimbus, Kursa & Duskky, Skope, a new Earegular EP, a long awaited Mouldy Soul album, the next Vent EP, a sweet release from a chap called R2EQ and two wicked tracks from Fybe:One. I put out a cheeky free d/l as Psi Spy last year and we just had a Kursa & Shamanic Technology track come out as a free d/l as a warm up to their tour of Canada which kicks off in June. We are always on the lookout for what we like to hear and always hoping we can get it signed up to the label. Sam and I work on the basis that if either of us would want to play it out we’d also like to release it whether it be mid tempo, down tempo or even straight up drum and bass or techno.

(Kursa and Shamanic Technology :: Power Animal)

7. And UK Glitch Hop is your baby too? Tell us about that. It’s a label but you’ve also got a radio show and recently held the uk glitch hop awards?

It’s not a label as such more of a collective although we did put out a free compilation at the end of last year and intend on putting out more. I am certainly a part of it and do consider it like another child if we are talking in terms of babies but props need to go to the one and only Morbidly Obese Midget aka Chris who really was the founder of UK Glitch Hop. Chris pulled myself, William Breakspear who runs Skanky Panky Records, Your Niece aka Rhys in early on alongside Mouldy Soul aka Rich and Harley Davies who runs Beta Test Records and Beta Birmingham and together we’ve been pushing the scene along as much as we can alongside the many other people who are making it what it is and is becoming and we’ve had a heap of support and mixes and guest dj’s from people like Wonkay Records, Omni Temple, Automaton, Krossbow just to namecheck a few. Koan Sound have really helped bring the scene in to a wider audience in the UK too as an example so we consider ourselves a part of something bigger really and are just pleased to be a part of it.

The idea behind UK Glitch Hop was to create an open platform to showcase the sound by way of a regular weekly show on Glitch.fm and via our soundcloud archive and with the help of the facebook page a way for people to hear about new releases and events going on. Since the conception we have ended up all pooling our contacts and have hooked each other up to the point where we now really are beginning to play as a collective and have been lucky enough to host rooms at Carousel Festival a couple of times with the next one on 13th June, at Liberated Empire where we played alongside Griz who played in the main room last Friday whilst we hosted the other room, at Sub Audio Festival later this month you can catch me and ben playing as Krymes alongside William Breakspear, Noisily Festival is a big one for us though!! We’ve roped Vent into playing with us too for that one. Really looking forward to it.

We are hoping to get a regular UK Glitch Hop residency sorted out later this year too but we need to find the right venue and we’d rather wait and get it right than to just do it for the sake of doing it. We’ve been doing the awards for 2 years now and we do a little tour to celebrate that anyway but a regular night will be wicked when we get there. The awards are our way of letting the people who actually listen to Glitch Hop give back a bit of a thank you for all the effort the promoters, producers and labels are making themselves really. Come check us out here.. https://www.facebook.com/UKGlitchHop and you can listen to some of the shows archived here.. https://soundcloud.com/ukglitchhop

http://ukglitchhop.bandcamp.com/album/this-is-uk-glitch-hop-volume-1

8. So the UK scene is really thriving? Why do you think that is?

The UK is a funny place for music, we have some of the best music on the planet originating here. Drum and Bass, Breaks the list is long (I’ve seen a flow chart online a few times) all the way back to the heyday of the Beatles, the Stones, the Happy Mondays, the Cure and all the music that has come in between that and now. It’s just something we seem to do well. Truth is though we make great music but we don’t party like they do abroad really, there is a different vibe partying somewhere that isn’t cold and wet most of the year and there are less people chin stroking and contemplating production methods but right from when I used to go to Speed on a thursday to see Bukem and Fabio to now there is nowhere else like the UK. I like to think that in 50 or a 100 years time people are going to look back and see what we’ve done for music and sub culture in the UK but what we are also good at is taking sounds and scenes from all over the world and making them ours, or our own take on them and I think we’ll always see fresh ideas coming from this little island we call home.

9. Who else from overseas is doing it right in the Glitch Hop scene?

Opiuo is wicked, Gramatik although he’s his own monster, Stickybuds who played at our awards this year, I’m partial to a bit of JPod and some Gruff, far too many to mention them all really but Mr Bill needs a big ups, his Collaborative Endeavors was something else with my favourite track on there being Rmyth.. Go and d/l this right now if you haven’t got it, you need this in your life!!

10. Krymes is the new project? What can we expect?

Ben and I are in the studio and we put up a free track a little while ago but we’re slow, lots started and just left as we move on to the next thing, it’s a learning curve and we are really focusing on getting out sets right at the moment primarily but we plan on getting a single out later this year. Ben is working on another project with a friend of ours Q called Shake N Herb which is coming together really nicely and Sam and me have been back in the studio writing together as Basik and just had a track out on a 12″ that Beta Test Records pressed up earlier this year. As far as what to expect from Krymes though, a rocking party set of solid mid tempo, glitchy goodness with some unreleased edits from us and anyone else we are digging at that point in time too and a single later this year and a follow up EP and a couple of remixes we’re working on somewhere in between. Links below..

11. Any possibility of some new collaboration material with Tipper?

Haha.. Well we’ve been talking about it for the past two years on and off but I don’t want to be in a situation where we are sending each other stems whilst he’s in Hawaii and I’m over here so when I get round to going there or when I can get him in to a room here and lock the door and hide the key you may just see something else emerge from us. We put our whole discography up for free d/l over a year ago and it has had quite a few d/l’s and fundamentally we are both still very much into what we were back then and in a similar headspace still so let’s see. Luckily his surgery went well last year so we’ve got time on our sides I hope. I’ve been listening to his latest work a lot recently as he just released Forward Escape and it’s next level as always.. Again if you haven’t got that in your life get over to addictech.com now and purchase it immediately!! You won’t regret it, I guarantee you that or I’ll personally refund your money!!  If you’ve never heard any of the Crunch material you can check us out here too.. https://soundcloud.com/crunchdiscography

12. Anything else you’d like to add?

Yeah, thank you for giving me the opportunity to spout off about what I love most, glitchy goodness. Hope you like the Noisily promo mix and look forward to seeing some of you at Sub Audio Festival, Carousel Festival or Noisily Festival over the next couple of months!! Gonna be a good summer..

——

So big thanks to Mike for his answers and now onto the mix. A pumping, fast paced riotous mix of all things Glitchy, taking in Funk, Swing, Ghetto, House and many other influences all Glitched up and whomped out! This needs to be played at high volume!

ANDRE CROM (OFF Recordings founder and head honcho) and CHI THANH have built an undeniable studio relationship. Their productions continually turn heads and more importantly, move feet. The pair’s latest provide further evidence – two tracks that sound glorious when played loud and work wonders on the dancefloor.

The lead track, “Black Rain” is an example of how sexy the underground can be. It subtly builds momentum through the course of the tune via tight synth work and a bassline worth holding on to. The b-side is equally sexy, albeit much darker, harnessing the prowess of techno in an underground house tune for late night adventures.
