UPRISE AUDIO 4TH BIRTHDAY // SEVEN GUESTMIX

On Friday 18th November Uprise Audio will be celebrating 4 years running as a label with a party down at Surya in Kings Cross. Since its inception in 2012 the label has grown in to a house hold name in the dubstep scene with a consistent output of chart topping releases and legendary label night parties both here and across the pond in the US and Canada. We took this opportunity to catch up with label head honcho Seven and his partner in rhyme Joe Raygun to find out a bit more about the label and how they came to reach this 4 year Milestone.

SEVEN: The label has been like a baby being conceived, to then born and now growing into a child. It’s something we all embrace with love, like we do each other as a family and team. Our birthday party is a special occasion, not just because we have been running for 4 years, but because since we started Uprise this music has bought us all together, label family, friends and fans alike. To all be there together like that, 4 years down the line, all feeling the moment and soaking up the atmosphere, well, that’s gonna almost be on a spiritual level to me. I hope you guys feel same ways when we all get together and party on November 18th

JOE RAYGUN: For me it is all about family. I felt that from the first time I met Seven and Verity J (UA co founder) on a boat party at Outlook back in 2012, just as the label had started and 4 years later that vibe is stronger than ever. Family, friendship and enjoyment are the only motivations for doing what we do. We have no delusions of grandeur or aspirations to be anything other than what we are and the fact other people, like and engage with what we do is just a bonus. The primary reason for throwing Uprise Audio events is so we can all get together and catch up, play each other our new music and party, as we are all dotted around the country so don’t get to spend as much time together as we would all like.

Even if the name Uprise Audio is not completely familiar with In-Reach readers and drum and bass fans alike some of the names who have been involved in the label definitely will be. Head honcho Seven started his musical career as a drum  bass producer under the name Eddy Woo gaining recognition with a number of singles on DnB godfather Andy C’s labels ‘Ram’, ‘Frequency’ and ‘High Lite Recordings. Joe Raygun should need little introduction to followers of In-Reach and Flexout Audio as one of their choice MC’s at recent events including Boomtown and also as one half of Co:Lateral. Asylum who is responsible for the labels second ever release and makes his return to the line up for the 4th birthday event should need no introduction as one half of the legendary DnB duo Vicious Circle. The label has also seen ventures in to the 140 realms from other dnb stalwarts including Ram Records Stealth and Critical Music’s Klax released their first three releases on Uprise Audio.

SEVEN: I come from a DNB background, so there has always been an element of that in my productions and in the output of the label. We have always been a label with cutting edge approach and i feel thats been strongly influenced by the mindset i grew up with as a producer, as well as from a young age being part of the Ram Records crew. It’s something that i will always bring to the table of influence as its part of my musical DNA.

We’ve also picked some choice dnb cuts from the UA back catalogue! Enjoy

With the 4th Birthday event on the horizon something which both Seven and Joe have highlighted as important to the label is its parties and label nights. We asked events manager Raygun to recap some of his favourite UA parties from the past 4 years.

JOE RAYGUN: We have had some special nights together thats for sure! For those who remember the early days back at East Village i am sure will agree they were some special events. We had the launch party there and also colab events with Stink Like Socks and Artikal ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3MI5smBanY ) before the venue unfortunately got shut down in 2013. Our most recent London event back in April is one which sits fondly in the memory. We had Youngsta along as our special guest and our friends from New Orleans- Unicorn Fukr, Quickie Mart Werd2Jah over for it. It was a real highlight event with an after party to match!! But for real, the most fond memory has to be the Outlook Festival boat party in 2014! WOW what a party that was! We had the full crew in attendance on a sold out boat, in the sunshine at the best festival in the world. Something I will never forget!

We are delighted to have got an exclusive guest mix for In-Reach from head honcho Seven himself to celebrate 4 years of Uprise Audio and give us a taste of what to expect on November 18th .

SEVEN: The mix is all about expressing the different sides of our spectrum of music at Uprise Audio. Each section of the mix is a small sample of what you will hear us play at Surya on the 18th of November. Check it out right below

  • After a lengthy hiatus, Back of the Stack returns! This edition plays host to a certified legend of the Drum & Bass scene in @architexink who’s dark, dirty beats have been reverberating through London’s club scene since the late 90’s. If you can think of an iconic London club night, Ink has probably had a residency there; Metalheadz at Bule Note, Hardware at The End and Speed at Mars Bar were all on the list of dancefloors being torn up by Giles on a regular basis.

  • It’s difficult for us to introduce anything 2020 related with any sort of positivity, but just for a moment, lets forget about all the struggle and strive of the past year, and take some time to reflect on some of the finest drum and bass music the past 12 months has had to offer. 
.
Speaking on behalf of the entire In-Reach.co.uk crew, we are delighted to share with you our round up of the wonderful tracks released in 2020, that we feel have stuck the middle finger up to this insufferable year!

  • DJ Trace’s first ever release was back in 1991 - 30 years later and he
  • @symmetryrecordings kick things off in 2021 with a 4-track EP from DSP, with his Fake Worlds EP. 
.
To celebrate the release, DSP has recorded a meaty 1 hour mix that showcases his ability behind the decks. With sneaky double drops and tight blends, the mix consists of highlight tracks from the last year or two, forthcoming freshness (including, of course, some tracks from the EP) and some classics thrown in for good measure.

  • @temporec present their new next release from the legendary @source_direct - SPEED is a new Tempo Records sublabel & project released on a limited collectors hand numbered 180gram coloured picture disc vinyl with original & legendary producers who helped shaping the Drum & Bass scene.

Source Direct, along with Goldie, Photek, Peshay and Wax Doctor, one of a handful of stand-out artists who were signed to major labels in the wake of Jungle’s/Drum and Bass
  • This upload is an important one for us here at In-Reach, not only because we’ve got the opportunity to debut music from a label that we collectively respect so greatly, but also because it presents the music of one of the scene’s most talented, and most sorely missed representatives: the late Andy Skopes. This release sees the breakbeat assassin go slightly of course from his usual dark jungle style to team up with the ever-wonderful, and equally prolific Madcap in a luscious, but oh-so dangerous trio of tracks. These tunes are brimming with emotion, which stems both from the posthumous nature of their release, as well as the sheer elegance and tranquility of the music. We send our salutes to both Andy and Elliot on this release, which is a wonderful reminder of how, through their music, an artists soul can live forever ♥️
