PTA Presents - Evol Intent (The Enemy) and SpeakerWrath
EVOL INTENT (The Enemy)
Over the last few years, Evol Intent has emerged as one of the leading forces in the United States Drum and Bass movement. Both as a label and as a production trio, Evol Intent are considered some of the biggest up and coming talents in the entire dnb industry. Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia the crew consists of Knick, Gigantor and The Enemy. Apart from being a production outfit, Evol Intent also owns and operates their own label, which functions as an outlet for their own work as well as like-minded artists.
After building an underground following with their first 3 releases, Evol Intent began to get some attention from distributors, both in the USA and overseas. They wound up signing a deal with Alpha Magic to handle their distribution for Evol Intent Recordings. Soon after, Evol Intent caught the eye of the award winning and historic dnb label, Renegade Hardware. Hardware had just launched a new label and they were interested in new material from Evol Intent for the label (Barcode records). After their first release with Barcode, Hardware was quick to snatch up Evol Intent and offer them an exclusive deal as permanent artists on the roster. Around the same time, Dieselboy approached the Evol Intent trio to do a remix for his upcoming cd, "The Dungeon Masters Guide." Upon completion of the remix, Dieselboy asked Evol Intent to do yet another remix for the cd, but this time he asked them to remix a song from a legendary producer known as BT.
Beyond all of the hard work they have put in to their music in the last year, Evol Intent are showing no signs of slowing down any time soon. They have had releases on labels such as Renegade Hardware, Human imprint, Outbreak records and of course, Evol Intent Recordings. Early 2005, we will see the Evol Intent EP, debuting on Renegade Hardware, as well as countless releases on their own Evol Intent Recordings imprint, which is now distributed internationally through LOAD Media.
SPEAKERWRATH
The duo that are speakerwrath (aka Jordan and Dave) have been producing and dj'ing Breaks and Beats for over 4 years now. I remember Jordan letting me hear some very easrly break's tunes when they were starting off and i must say i was impressed then and im still impressed now.
They have now found their sound and its hard edge Drum n Bass. They still love their Breabeat but have obvisouly found a market for the junglists. There sound is now more crisp and there beats are cutting edge and if you like the more harder end of the scale in drum and bass then speakerwrath are a given not to dissapoint.
With there very first Vinyl 12" Release coming up on Hardline Recordings (HL17) its time Melbourne found out just who speakerwrath are. Dont sleep on this!
