Erra, Nottingham producer and DJ, joins the L2S Family for his Debut release. With huge support from Whistla, Geiom and Littlefoot, to just name a few, he has risen up through the Future Garage ranks by virtue of his amazingly original productions. First up “Getting Happs” sets the trend with a constantly building tension and rising bass sound, accompanied by one of the sickest beats you will hear. “Babyface” is next, with techy overtones and tuff 2-step beats, this is a masterwork in tech-meets-garage emotive track building. “Favourite Cake” with Littlefoot jointly on the buttons, sees the Nottingham boys on a Cakey adventure into uncharted garage realms. Finally is “Butterz” another track like only Erra can make, techy sounds and syncopated groove make this a surefire winner!
Another debut release! Sentinals join L2S, and the tracks are huge! Already getting support from the legend Todd Edwards, Whistla and Submerse these tracks are already massive crowd favourites, and finally they can be yours to own! First up, ‘Love Rhythm’ fuses massive synths and amazing chopped up vocals with big bass and a quality 2step beat which always gets crowds going wild! Second is ‘Synaesthesia’, huge synths and massive bass predominate again, this time added to the sound are squelchy acid overtones and almost singalong vocals! If you like big garage smashers then you need this!
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!

L2S027
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.

T-Polar has been releasing tracks since 2002 and has had numerous releases on various labels in various genres. For L2S he has taken to the Future Garage format like a duck to water! “Theme From Roxy” is a non stop evolution of sound and 2 step rhythms from start to finish, dropping huge bass that is constantly changing and mutating into huge aural experiences the likes of which have never been hear in garage before, truly “Future”. Next up is “Jupiter” yet another track that is immensely hard to pin down, huge bass, swung out stepping beats, glitchyness and constant progression throughout make this a release like no other!
2 bass heavy rollers, with nods to dubstep, breaks and dnb. M2J’s sound is unique, blending elements of diff genres to make a truly “post-dubstep” sound.
Psycadelica sees M2J in a Psychedelic mood, with a twisted leadline, dirty dirty bass and minimalist groove. Will Power swings up the traditional breaks groove to create a Future Garage track for all bass music fans!
