U&A Smashes Wickerman

An immense weekend was had by all at Wickerman in Scotland.

For the first time, U&A were asked to host one of the Big Tops at BassCamp and succeeded in jam-packing the place on both nights. I can honestly say that every one of the crew's DJs stepped properly up to the plate, with special kudos going out to Mike Hulme and Rektchordz who closed out Friday & Saturday & held the floor till the end, with choruses of 'ONE MORE TUNE' echoing into the night. Much respect also goes out to Resistance, Zodiac Cartel, The Loops of Fury, Calvertron and Vandal, all of whom completely smashed it.

We'll be back!!

Loops of Fury - Rules Don't Stop Me (Re:Fix#02) [320k d/l]

Brisbane's Loops of Fury are back with another Bastard-Fat mashup & rather than save it for their own summer sets (that include slots at Firefly, Wickerman and massive Elite Force Boat Party last weekend) they've decided to set it free as the second part in a series of mad-good re:fixes this year.

Elite Force gets Revamped ....

We've put together a series of BANGING reworks of 'The Law of Life' taken from the Revamped album, split over two releases, the first of which is dropping as a pre-release exclusively on BEATPORT today (Mon 21st June), just prior to his Glastonbury show on Thursday.

PRE-RELEASE BEATPORT LINK

This first package features cracking re-works from Zodiac Cartel (fresh from remixing Moby, Lee Coombs & Emanuel Kosh) and electro-techno wunderkid, Mike Hulme who smashes it with his dark & deadly, snaking technoid re-take. We also include a HUGE new 'bonus' track in 'Fear The Pain', which slams home hard with a tech-funk-grinder which is already enjoying early support from James Zabiela, Stanton Warriors, Slam, Krafty Kuts, Crystal Method, DJ Dan, Annie Nightingale and Meat Katie amongst others.

Rektchordz - Speaker Bump Out Now on Beatport

U&A stalwart Rektchordz (aka Jamie Smithson) is back & firing on all cylinders with his latest bomb from the tech-funk trenches.


'Speaker Bump' is prime time techy tackle for electro-heads with a familiar vocal hook and a whole world of whomp, we expect this to appeal to many of his previous supporters, including Laurent Garnier, James Zabiela, Meat Katie, Nick Warren, Slam and Will Bailey amongst many others.


On remix duty, fresh from remixing the debut single on the Plump DJs new label, The Loops of Fury come correct with their Battleweapon techno-take.


We then have mixes from two very different but equally exciting emerging production talents ... first up, Beatport-topping dubstep superstar-in-waiting 'Vaski' smacks the living daylights out of it with a seismic rumbler, whilst Spectum legend 'Pete Jordan''s reworking is a massive wonky classic to keep the warehouse kids more than happy.


As a bonus ball - check out Calvin Harris - Stars Come Out (Rektchordz Re-Fix) which is up for free download right now from his newly unveiled webspace > http://rektchordz.com

This massive re-working of his own 'Engine' tune from a few years back, mashed up with The Gossip and chunks of Mr.Oizo has been a huge secret weapon over the past year or so, and now it's all yours :)

Brave New World

It's a real thrill to finally have a dedicated site up & running for U&A Recordings. Although the label's not yet 3 years old, it been a real rollercoaster ride & speaking as label boss it's been a genuine pleasure for me to have been able to showcase the up & coming talents of the likes of Zodiac Cartel, The Loops of Fury, Rektchordz, Butter Party, Mike Hulme, Dustbowl alongside established artists like myself (Elite Force) and Meat Katie, and of course the myriad of talented remixers who have all helped put U&A firmly on the map.

It's onwards & upwards for the label into 2010. This site will become more & more essential with the passing months as a key hub for all the artists, and the ONLINE STORE we have just finished building will be a great resource for all things relating to the label, from gig tickets to signed physical copies to remix parts to T-Shirts, and of course a wealth of unique digital content. We kick it off with some very special offers of bundled digital & physical copies of the compilation album 'Tech-Funk Vol.1' we released in December. Check it out!

Keep it locked. It's gonna be a GREAT year!
