a bass republic acaba o mês de março numa nova casa - o club mau mau - com uma festa renegade hardware, englobada no tour de lançamento do album above the game, com um cartaz onde se destaca o inglês DJ INK, que dispensa apresentações no drum'n'bass, meio de onde emerge nos anos 90, ligado a nomes tão importantes como a renegade hardware e a metalheadz. a acompanhar este veterano do drum'n'bass, chega pela primeira vez a portugal o colectivo IDENTITY, representado pelo brasileiro BTK, um dj/produtor que têm surpreendido e que viu as portas a abrirem-se em labels como a barcode e a freak recordings, entre muitas outras. uma noite mais uma vez consagrada às sonoridades pesadas do drum'n'bass.
o contingente português é composto por NUNO FORTE da pressure force, BASTIAN da bass republic, MAIA e DAVE C da cutebreakz que abre as hostilidades com um set breakbeat. uma grande festa em perspectiva.
about ink
Its 1990 and a young Dj Ink has solidified his love for the culture known as hip hop- as the years move on so does UK street music, there are new genre’s forming and Ink begins to hear what is familiar to him, but there is a new twist-it is the UK passing by the USA, with a huge dose of African and Jamaican influence , and of course this is music to a budding Dj Ink’s ears, he naturally becomes involved and it doesn’t take too long before he begins to make his mark..
First begins the Pirate Radio Circuit, working hard at his craft, allowing the followers to get familiar with the roll, steadlily bookings began to build up and soon it would be time for Ink to become associated with three names that changed the landscape of British electronic music-and they were Basement Records, and slightly later Metalheadz and Renegade Hardware.
If your familiar with drum n bass/jungle you’ll know instantly the weight these labels carry, and if you are not by just scratching the surface you’ll become aware of the work they have done, Hardware, and Metalheadz are two commitments Dj Ink has upheld to this day, through thick and thin, engraved in the wall of time...

about btk
A pivotal member of the d&b collective 'Identity' a collective of producers spread out over Puerto Rico, Brazil and USA each bringing their own talents and fresh sounds to drum&bass. They have taken the steps needed to learn to follow vibes and ideas through an online merging of their home studios. In a lot of respects the Identity sound is truly a yearning for the merging of the dance floor vibe so prevalent in current drum&bass and a twisted mix of techno styles. Brain Dead which has been recently released on Renegade Hardware's sister label Barcode is one of the crews most successful releases to date. BTK solo tracks and his crew also have tunes signed with Freak (Obscene), Salvage, Ohm Resistance, Darkitek, Flatline, ELP Collective, Sinuous, Venom Inc, Guerilla n many more.
