DJ Hazard - Machete Bass EP

27th April, 2008

Written by: sikosis ( Sikosis).

Hard hitting beats are back with DJ Hazard's "Machete Bass EP". Four tunes to select from "Machete" using samples from the faux movie from Grindhouse (YouTube: Machete - if you don't know what I mean) and as hard hitting as they come, "Trouble Maker"'s sweeping bass, "Killers Don't Die"'s driven synth (also featured in Andy C's Nightlife 4) to "Cowards Beware"'s haunting Defender samples.  Available now on Playaz .

Music has always been a large part of DJ Hazard’s life with his early years spent listening to reggae, hip-hop and soul. On leaving school, Hazard began working at Basement Beats, a local record shop and it was there he earned the money and the skills, whilst collecting a healthy pile of promos. Although DJing was a dream come true to Hazard, he quickly realised that in order to breakthrough (and for music to be his vocation), he had to making the beats as well as playing them. Although he’d never played a musical instrument in his life, the production process came very natural to him and he began cutting dubplates and had a slew of successful releases.

After the 2004 smash ‘World Of Darkness’, it was believed it would be a very hard for Hazard to follow up, however, Hazard has continued to blow that theory to bits. The tracks on "Machete Bass EP" are where it's at in hard drum n bass, whilst also being a homage to movies and video games.
