Alix Perez – 1984 (Shogun Audio)

‘1984’ transcends the club/home listening divide with ease providing not just another drum and bass album but something so much more special. Going against the grain Alix has delivered an album for real music lovers the world over. Crossing the genres he delves from blissed-out downbeat and experimental hip hop to funk, soul and of course his beloved drum and bass, fusing them all together in the ultimate urban electronica album for 2009.

“Alix Perez is the nuts - one of the best drum and bass producers around today...believe!” Rob Da Bank, BBC Radio1

“Alix is one of the most talented producers making liquid D&B in 2009 – his tracks never fail to hypnotize you…” Mistajam, BBC Radio1, 1xtra

“It’s like jazz 2020 with Mr. Perez, the type of drum and bass I call hip hop, such is the depth of the big man’s sample sensibility. Heavy!” Ras Kwame, BBC Radio1, 1xtra

“One of the most cutting edge drum and bass albums of recent times, it’s been an honour to be involved. Alix will turn heads With this one.” Friction
