Music Label Focus: Basslayerz Recordings

In the heart of the UK's drum and bass scene, Basslayerz Recordings stands as a beacon of creativity and innovation. Established by the award-winning collective consisting of DJ Slipz, MC Spyda, and Blu Bomma in 2018, the label has been making waves ever since.

The label's mission is to discover tracks that resonate with the team, even if they may not find themselves playing them in all their sets. This approach has led to a diverse catalogue, covering the full spectrum of the jungle/dnb genre. Artists such as Jaydan, Kleu, Waypoint, Glitch City, AKAS, Oversight, and many more have graced the Basslayerz Recordings roster.

The label's journey started with the release of 'Smuggler' with DJ Limited, and since then, they have released numerous noteworthy tracks. "All Ganja Man" with Serum and "Magic Carpet" with Bou are just a few examples of the label's successful collaborations.

Currently, Basslayerz Recordings is on a monthly release spree, with a fresh track dropping every week. These releases prominently feature MC Spyda's distinctive vocals, adding a unique flavour to each track. One such upcoming release is "The Weekend," produced by Furniss, set to drop on Wednesday.

Looking ahead, the label has scheduled releases for the next 9 months, featuring artists like Disrupta, Amplify, and T>I. AKAS, who has recently become a regular on the label, produced the track 'Rise Again,' further expanding the label's diverse soundscape.

Interestingly, these current releases were not made specifically for this project; they were already in the label's vault, a testament to the consistent flow of quality music that Basslayerz Recordings fosters.

Despite some uncertainties about the exact duration of the label's activity and the motivations behind its founding, one thing is clear: Basslayerz Recordings is an active and recognised name within the UK drum and bass scene. With artists like Slipz, Spyda, and Blu Bomma performing under Basslayerz at notable events like RUN All Day in Bristol, the label continues to make its mark in the industry.
