Masheen

Masheen first got into music at an early age, not content with just listening to it, he then decided to start DJ'in. But not long after decided this was still not enough and started producing. Armed with just an Akai Sampler and an Atari he quickly got to grips on how to construct tunes. Just 2 years on he started to get interest from a couple of labels which lead to his first release with fellow producer Evil-C on 24 Karat under his old name DJ ST. Shortly after this release they met DJ Swan-e and had a release on his label Collusion Records under the alias Parallel Minds.

Audio

1) Audio is Gareth Greenall, a drum and bass artist from United Kingdom. Working for G2 (UK) label. About Audio: Audio's first experience with electronic music was in the Early 90's with the Colin Dale and Colin Favour radio shows on Kiss 100. He was instantly hooked, and when, a few years later, the classic "Wormhole" LP on Virus recordings was released, there was no turning back and he embraced the underground family that we know and love as drum and bass.

Identity

1. Sweden's IDENTITY existed during that perceived hardcore void from late '80s to early '90s, a time that the closed minded claim produced no bands worth listening to. The closed minded are wrong, and IDENTITY is a prime example - this is the standard to which modern "melodic hardcore" should be held. Brilliant tuneful guitar leads throughout and hooks that border on melancholy, while the music blasts onward with few breaks in tempo ("Can I Really Trust Your Words?" is about as mid tempo as they get, and the kids could still pit to that one pretty easily).
