Ulterior Motive are finally ready to release their long awaited collaboration with DRS, ‘Hey Judas’. Instantly recognisable and yelled for in seconds, this track has been doing serious damage wherever it’s been dropped in the last few months. DRS lays down a sweet 16, and twinned with UM’s razor sharp beats and bass, it’s a deadly combination.
The AA side showcases a true master class in Modular madness, as the guys team up with technical Bristolian wizard DLR.
Growling itself all the way to the front, this sizeable slab of bass and percussion brings the funk and the vibe to the floor, bringing that 98 sound firmly up to date.
We’re only at 002 in the Guidance catalogue and the bar has been resolutely raised. Watch out, there’s so much more to come.
Since 2007, Ulterior Motive have been providing devastating future dance floor funk for the most discerning of Drum and Bass lovers. Since releasing their debut album and a tranche of singles on seminal label Metalheadz, 2017 now sees them finally launch their own imprint Guidance.
Guidance: Initially starting life in 2007 as an event, Guidance has gone full circle and will now be the label and home for their music. It promises to be a name that stands for the aesthetic the duo have become infamous for; beautifully and intricately crafted music and sound that can shake any venue to it’s very foundations.
Guidance 001 showcases four powerful yet also varied tracks from the pair. They join forces with one of the best to ever host, SP:MC, on ‘The Wobbler’, and also team up with production wizard Icicle on ‘Anode’. Two more solo tracks from the pair in the form of ‘Clap Ya’ and ‘Kamakura’ wrap up an exquisite first release that highlights the pair’s formidable intentions for the future.
Support from: dBridge, Skeptical, Xtrah, DLR, Ant TC1, Jubei, Friction, Icicle & Rockwell.
