| WELCOME TO THE HOME OF SUPERCHARGED & AGAINST THE GRAIN THE WORLD RENOWNED BREAKBEAT RECORD LABEL & CLUB NIGHTS THANK YOU TO EVERY ONE WHO MADE IT TO OUR SUPERCHARGED BIRTHDAY PARTY @ CONCORDE 2, BRIGHTON. WHAT A SMASHER! SUPERCHARGED IN BRIGHTON - THE WORLDS BEST CLUB NIGHT! SuperCharged has grown from its club night roots in Brighton and sporned a second off shoot called Against The Grain, together these names are now two of the most respected breakbeat orientated record labels in the world. They have built a solid reputation in the music industry for producing quality music from artists such as the Freestylers, Krafty Kuts, Splitloop, Deekline & Wizard, Black Canvas, Ed Solo and Skool Of Thought. From playing to thousands of people at festivals to hitting number 2 in the Australian pop charts, and from supplying music to Disney to supporting emerging underground talent, SuperCharged Music, Against The Grain and their associated artists have gained a diverse audience spanning the world over. 2008 will see the launch of a new HQ in Byron Bay, Australia. DEEKLINE & WIZARD SIGN TO AGAINST THE GRAIN: Dj Deekline came to prominence with his era defining top-ten anthem, ‘Don’t Smoke The Reefer’, which effortlessly placed him at the vanguard of the Two-step, Garage and Breakbeat movements. Wizard meanwhile has carved out a career as an in demand studio wizard, producing for the likes of Xpress 2, Lady Sovereign, M.I.A, Hadouken and The Chemical Brothers. Together they are one of the foremost production outfits in electronic music with a dizzying array of club smashing hits such as ‘One In The Front’ with DJ Assault and ‘Steam’ with DJ Fresh. Now the release of their 2nd album, “Back Up, Coming Through!” will cement their position as the premier dance music duo that they most definitely are. Release schedule: Angels & Baila Baila (feat. Stereo:Type) released 17th November 08 with remixes from NAPT, MJ Cole & DJ Bomba Back Up (Love For The Music) released 23rd February 09 with remixes from Krafty Kuts, AC Slater & TRG Back Up, Coming Through - THE NEW ALBUM! released 2nd March 09 DJ MAGAZINES TOP 50 CLUBS IN THE WORLD: SPLITLOOP 'PLEASURE MACHINE' BLOWING UP!: Splitloop are back with a killer new album 'Pleasure Machine' which is out now. Dipping their toes into numerous styles of electronic music has certainly paid off for the guys. 'Pleasure Machine' has a velvety sheen, touching on modern sexy D. Ramirez-type electro-house, juddery Justice riddims, old skool electro, Plumpy breaks and a hell of a lot more. There's a consistency to their sound that glazes the whole album - sexy electronic dance music that'll be rocking floors from Brighton to Beijing, quite simply 'Pleasure Machine' is bang on the money. Accumulating all the tools to soundtrack a fantastic night out, the Splitloop guys have set the dials for pleasure. The touring that's going to be accompanying this album is going to bring them into contact with a whole new set of pleasure-seeking individuals. Splitloop are philosophical about their early career. "Our first studio had a broken toilet, so everything smelled like piss," they remember. "We could never afford monitors 'cos all our money went on pills and beer. As soon as we gave up pills, we bought monitors and got signed." "The groove of Simian Mobile Disco or The Plump DJs...the soundtrack the summer” 5/5 – Album Of The Month – DJ Mag “This is the act I am putting my money on for the near future.” – Annie Nightingale, BBC Radio 1 “These guys are set to blow up” – Plump DJ’s on Radio One ED SOLO & SKOOL OF THOUGHT: If you had to list the top 10 hottest DJ / producers in breaks over the past 12 months, Ed Solo and Skool of Thought would be dead certs for a podium finish. Hotter than an aerobics class held in a sauna with the central heating cranked up to the max, both have individually cemented a reputation for laying down insane tracks and killer DJ sets across the globe. Since joining forces, however, they have provided a host of huge singles, including 'When I Was a Yout,' 'Love Your Life' and 'Babylon Breaks', along with the thundering remixes of Groove Armada's 'Superstylin' and Freestylers v Pendulum 'Painkiller' which have seen them in high demand for production work as well as for DJing. Their debut album 'Random Acts Of Kindness' has whipped up a press frenzy with DJ Mag, IDJ, Knowledge, EQ, Beatmag and lots more all printing features on this dynamic duo! KRAFTY KUTS: Krafty Kuts is resident DJ at SuperCharged and when he's not touring the world he can be found spinning the latest tunes on a Wednesday at Audio in Brighton. Krafty Kuts 'Freakshow' album was recently released to critical aclaim, scooping 'BEST ALBUM' at the 2007 Breakspoll Awards and 'ALBUM OF THE MONTH' in DJ magazine. From the dripping acid strut of the album’s first single ‘Bass Phenomenon’, to the ‘slap the cheeks and ride the waves’ booty bass of ‘There They Go’ - ‘Freakshow’ is a gumbo of musical styles. ‘Keep Moving’ mixes Yolanda’s epic choral laments with a bassline reminiscent of Adam F’s ‘Smash Sumthin’, ‘Tell Me How You Feel’ is a summer smash from the bars to the beaches, while ‘Freakshow’ sounds like Prince making love to a vocoder and ‘We Do This’ has the sort of grimey, pig-sty bassline, that’ll leave head-nodders with whiplash. Look out for Krafty Kuts 'Back To Mine' CD coming out in early 2008. FREESTYLERS: Another huge project for Against The Grain has been the release of the Freestylers forth artist album 'Adventures In Freestyle' which saw the breakbeat superstars team up with Pendulum to produce "Painkiller", one of the biggest tunes in dance music during 2006. However, those expecting an album of straight up breaks may be in for a surprise, as ‘Adventures…’ packs its compass and Kendall Mint Cake and takes the listener on a trip spanning soul, hip hop, funk, disco and even rock!
