I'm usually into the darker side of drum and bass, grinding reece bass, snares and kicks from hell, but I'm happy to say this cd has turned my perspective quite dramatically on what's going on in the world of drum and bass. The scene at the moment is centered around ridiculous bass lines, and the heaviest drums possible, but i'm glad to say this well and truly sticks to the hospital vibes of old.
Every track on this album is a breath of fresh air, rolling bass lines, clever use of sampled drums and strings, and nice clean vocals. This album genuinely makes you smile, which is something 99% of drum and bass albums are missing at the moment.
If your into the likes of Roni Size + Reprezent, Danny Byrd, AI, I'd defiantly recommend this album, and if your not, I'd still recommend putting it on your shopping list. In a world of jump-up, this stands out as a classic :)

I first caught on to London Elektricity when Power Ballads was released, after spotting it in HMV, vaguely remembering a tune called 'Do You Believe' that I really liked on Tom Middleton's Cosmos comp from years ago, and making an impulse purchase that was probably the best impulse purchase I ever made, and has gone a long way to shaping my musical tastes ever since. Of course I snapped up Billion Dollar Gravy not long after, loved that one as well, and have been following the scene ever since.
I was a bit worried that I was going to be disappointed by this one after the last two were so good, also I'd caught a couple of snippets of tunes on the Hospital Podcast and wasn't immediately convinced. I'm delighted to say I was wrong. This is one of the finest pieces of electronic music I've ever heard. This Dark Matter will almost certainly head towards being one of my favourite songs ever. Raw emotion that has never been linked to D&B before like this. One More Second is a lovely rolling groove with a great vocal. All Hell is Breaking Loose can't not put a smile on your face (although I'll forever link it with dancing skeletons - check the video on YouTube). Gotta love the trumpets and guitar breakdown! I could keep going, but I won't.
Just go and spend the £8. If you're reading this Tony, well done mate.

if you're not familiar with London Elektricity, this is a must have for all D&B fans. essentially, there's a light D&B context to the songs, with an intelligent, tuneful and uplifting vibe. the problem i've found with chilled D&B is that alot of it is boring and monotonous. this avoids that pitfall and keeps you wanting to listen to the next track. a good addition to the collection

Latino DnB?
I was drawn to this album after obsessively following the Hospital Records podcasts.

Coffee table drum & bass
I clocked a bit of a buzz in the run-up to the release of the LP so I decided to check it out in the hope that it might be the next Timeless, Black Secret Technology or Untrue. Read more
