MIXMAG LIVE – HIGH CONTRAST
DMC

Two of the biggest specialists in underground dance music Mixmag and DMC team up with the man himself to put together this wicked compilation full of musical delight. Within the last couple of years, High Contrast has turned into one of the main players on the drum and bass scene, through his DJ sets and the quality and originality of his productions he has helped take the drum and bass sound to the next level. Now after only a few months after his High Society LP on Hospital he mixes up a wicked selection of tunes letting us know of the wicked tracks we have to look forward to in the coming months, HC represents the more soulful side of the scene and this mix is bound to appeal to a wider range of audience whether your into your drum and bass , house or just plain anything there is sure to be something on here for you. The mix contains fifteen of the hottest dance floor D&B cuts expertly blended together live by High Contrast with big tunes from the likes of Calibre, Logistics, Marky & XRS, Parallel Forces ,Nu Tone and of course High Contrast himself. There are a number of dub plate specials in the mix including the massive ‘Lights Go Down’ by the man himself as well as rising star Cyantific’s remix of the old-skool classic ‘Cold Fresh Air’.
All in all this has got to be one of the most forward thinking comps of the year so far, and I gotta say its really good to get a mix CD with a tidy continuity of such amazing tracks. Quality!
