"Be Simple"
Gridlok one of the most influential American artists in Drum and Bass and considered one of the best producers in the genre, his debut album “Break the System” solidified his dynamic sound into the vanguards of Drum and Bass. Gridlok has maintained a relentless touring schedule taking him everywhere from Russia to Australia, delivering a vibe that is undeniable to all those that dare to strap in for the ride. Since his most recent album: VOID, he has dropped massive singles on some of the biggest labels in the game such as “Jitters” with The Upbeats on RAM and “Tru Born Playaz” with Prolix featuring MC Fats on Tru Playaz.
And now he is here in NZ to grace our shores with his presence and destroy our ear drums with his musical talent.
T from the Sonic Drive Show spoke to Gridlok about his success and what Sci-Fi film best describes his sound.

The latest highly anticipated release from the USA based Ammunition Recordings features tracks from Jade & Mastif, plus Engage on the flip!
Jade & Mastif start proceedings with Hyperion:
Featuring a unique stuttering intro, this track blossoms into a fully fledged roller. Combining a filthy neurofunk bassline, along with intricate drums and precision engineered percussion, this track is a fresh, complex take on the classic neurofunk theme. An energetic synergy of the slick production from Hungarian veteran Jade, and the creative input of Mastif, this is sure to keep the dance-floor hyper.
The other side of this release features Overbreaker by Engage:
Hailing from Russia, Engage has caused a stir in the Drum and Bass scene, with support including artists such as Noisia, Ed Rush and Concord Dawn. This track goes some way to explain why. Beginning with a futuristic synth laden intro, Overbreaker promises much. Following the sound of a gun trigger, it drops into a powerful dance-floor weapon. Hard hitting beats, deep bass and intricate effects, tied together with quirky synth stabs ensure this one is sure to get the club moving.
