L2S032
Submerse return to L2S with a summer ep sure to get everyone heading straight for the dancefloor! After the success of their earlier releases Submerse are now well established across the Future Garage spectrum with gigs all over the world! First up on the release is title track “Dreamin” a slick summery affair with bouncy chords and progressive bass and skippy beats. Next is “Back To You”, a proper clubbers track, with dangerously deep bass and tuff beats to get both the boys AND the girls shaking their tailfeathers! 3rd is “Slinky”, a track name that perfectly sums up the tune, slinky sultry beats and deep grooves predominate while the bass develops and grows throughout. Finally is Vista’s remix of “Dreamin”, taking the original and going full on psychedelic with a massive synthline solo that lasts the majority of the track, 2step beats, super deep bass, and high energy vibes. Make sure you pick this one up for the summer dancefloors!
Littlefoot makes a welcome return with his long awaited follow up ep “Psychedelic Crew Vol 2″. In the time between releases Littlefoot’s profile as a producer and dj has grown enormously, with bookings all over the UK and plays from just about every dj pushing Future Garage! The first track “Sell My Soul” is a 2-steppy bouncy affair that has had people screaming for a release for months, finally its here! Next up is underground favourite “Pripyat” with huge support from Whistla on Sub.FM this track already has a huge fanbase, with its menacing intro and insane synth work, this is a Future Garage classic in the making! 3rd is “4th Dimension” not happy with simply 3d, Littlefoot takes us on a bass fuelled ride into his vision. Finally is “Ridge Cut”, with support from all quarters due to its infectious groove and wild swing, this is the perfect track to end the release, and have you screaming for more!
For our 30th release L2S have managed to secure another classic UKG producer who is making the switch into Future Garage. CJ Reign is well known for his UKG productions on various labels and with this release we see the depth of his production skills go even further.
First up is “U Know” with deep and lush sounds perfect for the summer, and nods to Synkro and Pariah this is a track that is sure to have the Future Garage faithful grabbing for a copy! Second is yet another deep and lush track “Yaadien” this time with a slightly tuffer beat, but with huge lush chords and strings to take you off to a Future Garage paradise!

L2S label boss (and founding father of the future garage movement) Whistla, returns with another E.P that redefines the boundaries of Future Garage! 4 tracks that are as varied as they are inovative. First up is “Never Again” with huge support both from fans via his radio show and soundcloud page, Whistla’s incredible use of vocal chops, massive bass, a “running man” skippy beat and strings to make your heart melt, kick off the ep. Next up is the all out psychedelic assault that is “London Love Story”, first dropped at Rhythm Factory in East London, this track simply defies description, the future has arrived, and it is intense! Third we have the deep and deadly roller “No-One”, moody strings and a massive sense of space pervade even though the 4by4 influenced future garage rhythm is driving and intense, with bass that makes your chest implode! Finally is “Only Treasure” with huge support from djs across the board, Whistla has managed to fuse old skool synths with up to the minute beats and bass, as well as a sense of uplifting melancholy.
