Biography

Sub Focus is an alias of Nick Douwma, a fast-rising drum'n'bass producer/DJ affiliated with the Ram Records collective who became one of the style's leading practitioners within only two years of his recording debut. Originally from London, England, Douwma is a self-taught producer who began producing music on his PC at age 13 and attained his know-how from software manuals. One of his demos eventually made its way into the hands of Andy C., the co-founder of Ram Records, one of the U.K.'s premier drum'n'bass labels. Signed initially to the Ram Records offshoot label Frequency, Douwma made his recording debut as Sub Focus in 2003 with the 12" release Down the Drain/Hot Line. A couple more 12" releases on Frequency followed in 2004, along with one on J Majik's Infrared label. Douwma's breakout year came in 2005, however, when he made his Ram Records debut, releasing X-Ray/Scarecrow and, later in the year, Frozen Solid/Juno; these 12" releases were also compiled on the Frozen Solid/X-Ray maxi-single in response to their widespread demand, as "X-Ray" was awarded Single of the Week on tastemaker Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show. Also in 2005, Douwma was chosen to remix the Prodigy's "Smack My Bitch Up" in promotion of the group's 15-year anniversary collection, Their Law: The Singles 1990-2005.

 

In subsequent years, Douwma continued his affiliation with Ram Records, releasing a 12" more or less annually (i.e., Airplane/Flamenco, 2006; Special Place/Druggy, 2007; Time Warp/Join the Dots, 2008; et al.) and performing as an affiliate DJ at clubs such as Fabric and festivals such as Glastonbury. In 2009 Douwma issued his full-length debut, Sub Focus, which incorporated an eclectic fusion of futuristic house, dubstep, and electro-rock. The following year he produced the track "Kickstarts" for British singer/rapper Example, which peaked at number three on the U.K. singles chart, and in 2011 he inked a deal with Mercury, with plans to release his second album under the Sub Focus moniker in late 2012. The album sessions went on longer than expected and spawned five singles which gained Douwma increasing recognition and success with each release, culminating in the euphoric UK no. 10 hit "Endorphins" featuring vocalist Alex Clare. The success of the single was no doubt powered at least in part by its brilliant music video, which sees brutal riot police cracking down on dissidents in a dystopian future where music has been banned. A number of other high-profile vocalists, including Bloc Party's Kele Okereke, appeared on the eventual album, which was titled Torus and scheduled for release in September 2013. - iTunes

Yes at Sub Focus! :yahoo: :w00t: :cheer:

 

I this is much better than Animals. :)

Have pretty much loved everything Sub Focus have put out this era so far, first time hearing this one!

Get in there Sub Focus! :dance:

'Turn Back Time' :wub: :wub: :wub:

Turn Back Time :wub:

 

Great to see this in the top 40 :o

 

Almost only xmas songs and dance songs have entered this week the chart :lol:

One of my favourite tracks on Torus :wub:

Alone in loving To You I Belong then!

 

Not alone, one of my favourite ballads ever, so gorgeous :wub: lovely to see the brilliant End Of The Line in the retro too!

I'm not keen on the vocals on 'Turn Back Time' at all on first listen :( The instrumental is sounding a bit more interesting than Sub Focus' last couple of singles but on the whole probably my least favourite of the 'Torus' singles (maybe on par with 'Out The Blue'). Glad he's got a post-album top 40 though, he's done very well this era - the days of 2 #41 hits in a row are long in the past :P

Not alone, one of my favourite ballads ever, so gorgeous :wub: lovely to see the brilliant End Of The Line in the retro too!

Hoped you would save me, Rich :D

Biography

MC and producer Kid Ink — born Brian Todd Collins in Los Angeles, California, and formerly known as Rockstar — rose steadily by releasing a series of four mixtapes during 2010 and 2011. XXL magazine was impressed enough to list Kid Ink beside the likes of Danny Brown and Macklemore in its Freshman Class feature for 2012. That June, Kid Ink released Up & Away, his first proper studio album, via Tha Alumni. Although it featured beats from several producers — including Ned Cameron, Cardiak, Jahlil Beats, and the Amazinz — there were no guest verses, and therefore no disruptions in Kid Ink's nonchalant flow. It peaked at number 20 on the Billboard 200 chart and reached number three on the publication's Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. After another mixtape, he signed to major label RCA and prepared his second album. - iTunes

got a spam warning for posting 2 links to a burial video. wow.

This song is so bad apart from the sample :/ At least 'Turn Back Time' isn't the worst new entry then :lol:

Kid Ink sounds like an artist I'm going to absolutely despise in 2014. Good to see he's started 2 weeks early.

"Go on the flo' like a doormat"

 

Okay then. :lol:

 

This is alright I guess.

got a spam warning for posting 2 links to a burial video. wow.

You got a polite PM warning. I would suggest you heed the advice without being sarcastic in the thread. Thanks.

First time hearing this Kid Inc track. Not too fussed on it. :(

I don't think anyone is buying this song for him. Would be surprised if he gets any more hits after he drops Chris Brown.
