AQUASKY
Aquasky have been around for a while now, notching up many releases on some of dance music’s most respected labels. The trio also known as Brent Newitt, Kieron Bailey and Dave Wallace started working on music together back in 1995 releasing their music via seminal drum and bass label Moving Shadow. This resulted in further releases on the Reinforced and R&S labels before they were snatched up by Polydor where they released their first album ‘Orange Dust’ in 1996 which featured Big Shug from the Gangstarr Foundation and the Scratch Perverts.
In 1999 they returned to Moving Shadow and released two more long players titled ‘Bodyshock’ and ‘Aftershock’, the latter being a remix project of the first with remixes contributed by Adam Freeland, London Electricity, Rob Playford and many more. During the recording of ‘Aftershock’ Aquasky were coaxed into producing breakbeat by Adam Freeland who took the trio under his wing and gave them their early exposure to the scene.
In 2000 an EP was released on Botchit and Scarper titled ‘Sureshot’ which was quickly followed by the ‘777’ EP. This release was the first breaks record to have fused drum and bass, old school rave and breakbeat into one mould and subsequently kick-started the ‘Bassline Breaks’ genre. Whilst releasing these EP’s with Botchit and Scarper, Aquasky re-launched their Passenger imprint as a breakbeat label, helping to promote the heavy bassline sound they had created. With acts ranging from Meat Katie, Backdraft, Noisia, The Breakfastaz and The Freestylers, Passenger has always retained a high standard of audio pleasures.
During this period of artistic inspiration the boys also started another alias, Tenth and Parker for the Latin label Mr.Bongo/Disorient blending jazz, house, disco and a little techno together which was championed by Norman Jay and remixed by King Britt. The project featured Mark Murphy, an amazing jazz vocalist from the States, Snowboy the UK Latin percussionist, the horn section from Blur and the bassist from Fairground Attraction. A number of 12” singles were released from the album ‘Twenty:Twelve’ in 2001.
In 2002 Aquasky released their 5th album for the Botchit and Scarper label called ‘Beat The System’ Heavily influenced by their years spent going to free parties and raves during the late 80’s and early 90’s, the trio updated the old school sound and managed to track down two of their biggest inspirations from this period, The Ragga Twins. Less than 10 months later they followed this album with their 6th LP for Moving Shadow which showed their progression and skill as producers to stay ahead of the pack and redefine themselves and their sound. The album was titled ‘Stayfresh’ which brought the funk back into breakbeat. Featuring their new buddies The Ragga Twins and old school Ragga champion Daddy Freddy, down in the Guinness Book of Records as the fastest vocalist on the planet, the record was a huge success with a number of collectable classic singles still being spun in clubs across the globe now.
In 2004 a sister label to Passenger was created to ease the excessive output and tracks being offered to Aquasky. The label was named after one of the scene’s biggest and most notorious tracks ‘777’ and has released many acts and tracks over the past few years from acts like Tayo, The Breakfastaz, Baobinga, The Ragga Twins, JDS, Aquasky themselves and Control Z. With close ties and similarities to the Passenger label, 777 tried to incorporate more variation in it’s output, a way for it’s artists to experiment with their sound.
In 2005 and as a celebration of 10 years of production, Aquasky collaborated with some of breakbeats biggest names to create their 7th long player ‘Teamplayers’ on their own Passenger label, a huge project which saw the trio collaborate with some of the scenes biggest and baddest names such as FreQ Nasty, Kool Keith, Phil Hartnol from Orbital, DJ Icey, The Autobots and Elhornet of ozzie d&b band Pendulum to name but a few. The project was an outstanding success and was licensed to many countries across the globe and a DJ tour that lasted three months! It also assisted giving Aquasky and the Passenger label a fresh identity and vibe, moving away from the tougher, heavier sounds championed over the previous 5 years and incorporating a variety of influences from electro house to rock.
As well as global names in dance production, Aquasky also DJ the world over touring America, China, Japan, Russia, Eastern Europe, Asia, Canada and all the countries in Europe many times over during their 12 years together and to assist promoting themselves as DJ’s they also run a series of mix albums on Passenger titled ‘Breakbeat Bass’. These are retailed at a budget price as a tool to incorporate new fans of the label and of the sound of breakbeat. A formula that has so far being extremely successful. For 2007 Aquasky plan to drop their 8th album presently titled as ‘Ultimate Breaks and Beats’ and a new compilation series ‘This Way Up’ featuring talent from across the globe contributing exclusive tracks. The year also will see the labels growing with more artist albums from its roster including the debut album from Backdraft.
Aquasky’s music has appeared on many adverts, films and TV programs over the years bringing the trio a healthy revenue, most recently the title music to the recent Ali G in the USA series. As expected, their music is also very popular with computer gaming companies with numerous licenses achieved including the seminal Tony Hawk game. To assist dealing with the major companies and labels, Aquasky set up their own publishing company Skyhigh Music, administered by Bucks Music Group, the largest independent publishing company in the UK.
With already more breakbeat tracks in the market place than any other producer, Aquasky intend to continue with their mission to rule the world, to bring fun to the dancefloor and a smile to your face. The story is entering it’s second chapter…

RASCAL&KLONE
Steve Ward (Rascal) and Greg Lomas (Klone) met in 1994 at Kenilworth`s legendary "Euro Dizzy" rave partys. Klone was the live P.A. and Rascal the resident DJ. Rascal has been DJing since the age of eleven, growing up on diet of early electro and hip hop. Klone started producing at the early age of ten, growing up with a musical family - his father a session drummer for Decca recordings in the 60s & 70s and his Uncle producer for Bad Manners and many of the early 80s Coventry Ska bands.
From then on the two combined their skills - appearing as a DJ duo and working together in the studio. This led to their first release as Rascal and Klone on their own label, the now defunct "Project F80 Recordings" pressed in small quantities and distributed from the boots of their mates' cars. Although lasting for only three releases, Project F80 enabled them to gather enough funds together to revamp their studio and spend some serious time on their sound.
Relying purely on feedback from Dubplates and DATs given to DJs, Rascal and Klone felt that their sound was starting to make an impact. In 1999 their track "Twister" was licensed to Moving Shadow for their "Killa Bites" compilation.
In 2000 they made their full debut for the label with the highly acclaimed ⌠Phoenix EP (MSX004) scoring top marks in reviews and with many of the DJs.
This followed with their single on Audio Couture "Get Wild"/"Winner Takes All" (AC042) which went on to be liscensed to the game "Grand Theft Auto 3" and the Moving Shadow compilation 01.1.
Rascal and Klone were then asked to compile and mix CDs such as "Atmospheric Drum and Bass Vol.6" and an Audio Couture compilation for Knowledge magazine cover CD and asked to remix tracks for downtempo label "Kingsize Records".
In 2001 they went on to secure deals with "Allied" (a division of Dune), "Killerhertz" (a division of Ram), "Emotif", and more importantly "Urban Takeover". With releases on Urban Takeover, Shakedown, Allied, Emotif and Moving Shadow, these guys are not to be missed.
Their tracks recieved support from DJs such as Andy C and Ed Rush & Optical and you'd be well advised to keep a close eye on them as DJs and producers.
INFEKTO
Infekto (Riku Pentti) has been the broken beats pioneer in Finland since 1994. Co-founder of the first Finnish breakbeat label Pyssy and half of the chart topping hip hop/beats producer duo Skillsters. Skillsters is responsible for producing the first ever finnish hip hop album and was also hired to produce and be a part of the live act of Finlands biggest dance music export Bomfunk Mc's on their 3rd album.
Many Finnish hip hop acts have also hired Infekto's avantgarde scratching skills and his fierce breaks and drum&bass dj sets have been heard from Tampere (Where his eclectic breakbeat club "beatformers" is running 7th year!) to New Delhi.
Infekto's tunes combine the whole spectrum of broken beats from funk to hip hop to nu-breaks to drum& bass not forgetting the raw ol' skool hardcore sound of 92' and a touch of jazz.
His first release on nine2five "Left hand Jazz" got rave reviews from some of the biggest names in the business: appeared on a Gilles Peterson comp on the cover of MUZIK magazine etc. That opened the flood gates. What followed was wide variety of breakbeat mayhem and critical acclaim on such UK labels as Passenger, Hospital, Menu Music and Heavy Disco.
Infekto's dare we say it, 'infectious', breakbeat bootlegs on the unofficial "medcab" label ("Me Myself and I"&"Infekto's Message") have been among the most creative and enjoyable unofficial breaks mixes of the past years. His freshly released debut album "Occam's Razor" pulls together all the biggest 12" hits and sprinkles some real goodies on top. Brand new tracks including Flash Lighter("One of the biggest tunes this summer"-IDJ/"Single of the month" - TTR) and Sexy dancer have been gaining support from all the A league breaks DJs.
