  I’m squinting hard as the early dawn light is pummelling through the vans windscreen. We’re hurtling down the highway, somewhere between Rhode Island and Brooklyn – its post-party hour and some friends and I are dropping Reid Speed back home after an all-night rave in an abandoned bank vault.

When a familiar face from a successful group goes solo, there is always slight trepidation that the strength of their work may diminish, however, for drum’n’bass performer and producer Audio, undoubtedly one of the top notches in the tech-heavy d’n’b echelons, going solo after several years with the popular Resonant Evil has proven to be [...]]]> http://www.invurt.com/2008/11/27/audio-interview/feed/ 0 http://www.invurt.com/2008/03/31/interview-pendulum/ http://www.invurt.com/2008/03/31/interview-pendulum/#comments Mon, 31 Mar 2008 01:38:54 +0000 Facter http://www.invurt.com/?p=50
  Amongst the drift and tide of the musical realm, it is a rarity for an electronic music group to have mass market appeal, and yet several years ago, three guys from Perth embarked upon a journey that would take them not only to the top of the drum and bass charts, but also into [...]]]> http://www.invurt.com/2008/03/31/interview-pendulum/feed/ 0 http://www.invurt.com/2007/08/13/interview-chase-status/ http://www.invurt.com/2007/08/13/interview-chase-status/#comments Mon, 13 Aug 2007 03:56:05 +0000 Facter http://www.invurt.com/?p=248
In the ever shifting and tumultuous landscape that is the modern drum and bass world, producers and DJs rise, fall and stay fast. Yet in the past few years Chase and Status made more waves in such a short amount of time within the genre than most others, and after only four years in the [...]]]> http://www.invurt.com/2007/08/13/interview-chase-status/feed/ 0 http://www.invurt.com/2006/08/06/interview-total-science/ http://www.invurt.com/2006/08/06/interview-total-science/#comments Sun, 06 Aug 2006 01:18:34 +0000 Facter http://www.invurt.com/?p=126
Jason Greenhalgh and Paul Smith, better known as Drum and Bass production crew Total Science, have, in almost twenty years of association, always shared a common love of cutting edge break beats.

Stepping away from dnb for the evening, Greg Packer pulled out his hiphop and stepped up to the decks.
