Just in case you haven’t noticed, all of my music has a theme or idea, as an artist it helps me focus. The second release on the mighty Viral Mental Records called “What Your telling Me” is actually the part two of my Doctor Who influenced drum and bass. Rather than to sample the TV show and risk the wrath of the legal gods I recorded several takes a brit friend of mine from across the pond who was talking about the concept of the weeping angels.

As a test I slipped “What Your telling Me” into the recent Dredillah exclusive mix that was recently broadcast on HUSH FM and have received some very positive feedback.

As a related side note for all you grammatical freaks the use of the word “your” and not “you’re” was unintentional. One of the programs I use doesn’t allow the use of the apostrophe, only letters and numbers, so as a result I often intentionally leave these characters out of my titles.No need to send complaints, my mother has already forwarded me copies of the MLA handbook 🙂

Be sure to pick up “What Your telling Me” out now (officially June 5th 2015) in these fine Drum and Bass friendly stores.

I love the HUSH FM motto of playing all types of music with the common ground being dope beats and originality and much respect to the HUSH crew for having me. Big shout out to the one like Deeb for broadcasting the world’s first ever Dredillah exclusive mix on the one and only HUSH FM, I often battle test my tracks by mixing them in with some of my favorite tracks but have never actually tried to mix my own material non-stop for an hour, it was illuminating to say the least. By including and mixing older tracks with newer ones it was also apparent that my production style had changed. I slipped in a few newer “work in progress” and unreleased tracks and could tell from the IM that they were well received which really keeps me inspired and motivated about future releases. The HUSH FM mix is a free download if you feel so inclined.

As proudly mentioned here in a previous post my #DnB track “Arabus Dice” will be appearing on the Swedish drum and bass compilation Dansant Drum & Bass Two. The track itself is a nod and tribute to my artist friends of the past.Even though the sub title is “the Liquid DnB Collection” there are a fairly diverse group of artists included on this release, and for sure is not restricted exclusively to Liquid DnB 🙂 i’m really digging the track that the artist “Projekter” has contributed.

The compilation will officially be available just in time for New Music Monday on June 1st 2015 in all the really cool Drum and Bass friendly online music stores worldwide including Beatport, Junodownload, and of course iTunes …just to name a few. Here’s sneak peek of the track with this nifty player courtesy of Juno download 🙂 ….note, the player is not visible on iPad 🙁

Rarely do I ever dedicate or write a “song” or “track” for a specific person. I did dedicate an album to a friend as a sign of respect once but have never specifically created music with the actual intent of dedicating it to an individual.

One of the many things I enjoy about music is that, once released, it will exist long after its creator is gone. To me, this makes writing music feel like a great way to pay homage or show respect to a person in a long term capacity.

When I was a kid, one of my first “musical” friends let me know that it was a dream & goal of his to be in a band. Being the curious sort …I asked what the name of his band would be, with out hesitation he told me that, “Arabus” would absolutely be the name of his band. We were both very much into heavy metal and at the time and this seemed like a very metal name. It just so happens that “Dice” was his last name.

For the first time ….under the artist name “Dredillah” I started by writing a “drum and bass” track not with drums ….or bass ….or synthizers….but by beginning with the name first.

As a result, i’m very happy to report that within five days of its completion, this track “Arabus Dice” sparked the interest of Sweden’s very own substream/dansant record label and will be appearing on their latest drum and bass compilation. I thought it would be nice to let you preview some of the track in my latest mix.

Arabus Dice kicks in at about 13 minutes and 52 seconds.

Big news from the UK for all you Junglists and Drum & Bass heads. Direct from the mighty Viral-Mental Records who brought you the likes of Hektic, USD, G.A.S, and Paladin/Infinity  (just to name a few) now present to you in pristine 320 KBPs Dredillah’s track “Angels“. Get ready, prepare yourselves, sample the preview clip, Angels is set and locked for release in all quality online music distributors this coming May 15th 2015.

For quite a while I’ve been itching to get my grubby grimy producer mitts on some Drum and Bass / Jungle action that specifically uses female vocals, as you could have guessed from the video clip below I really enjoy tweaking vocal lines. Often I hear about remix contests way too late, but in this case (just my luck) I had just enough time to submit my remix to the Miss Haze and Higher Level Industries remix contest for the track “Alien Ocean”

As a rule for contests I try to incorporate as many of the original parts and pieces from the original artist to the greatest extent possible albeit heavily edited by yours truly, not too difficult to do in this case, the source material was solid to begin with. To the left is a clip of one of the vocal parts i was messing with using the KAOSS pad, one of my favorite audio tweaky tools. The original Miss Haze version of the “Alien Ocean” track can be heard here
