With the hugely successful Hospital Mix series focusing directly on the labels own output, “Drum + Bass 2010” opens up the selection to a wealth of musical talent from right across the scene.
This release opens the door to a goldmine of previously unavailable vocals - perfect for DJs to mix live or make a cheeky edit for the dancefloor.
Now it's become an annual outing, cheering up the fan base every January, coming in at a bargain £5 in the shops. Showcasing forthcoming music, singles and album projects from the Hospital crew, each release also selects highlights from the previous years' output. A top quality compilation, mixed as always by Hospital's top quality DJs.
Having brought you the pastoral English sounds of the Future Sound of Cambridge, and gone deep into central Europe into Hungary for the Future Sound of Budapest, recently we've gone next level to bring you the full length Future Sound of Tokyo and Future Sound of Cambridge 3 albums. The latest coup is the Future Sound of Russia EP, showcasing some of the cream of the current crop of D+B to come out of the largest country on the planet.
Capturing some awesome moments from London Elektricity, Landslide, Danny Byrd, Cyantific and more, make sure you check out our Medical History.
Tactical strikes from Hospital beginning in 2004, then again in 2005 saw the awesome "Weapons of Mass Creation" series develop into a run away success. Total Science, John B & Syncopix all featured in the early assaults. 2007 saw shock and awe tactics as big guns Blame, Apex & Blu-Mar-Ten also brought through tracks to the compilation series. 2008 saw the release of the Friendly Fire EP as Hospital bravely continues to keep it's head well above the parapet.
Plastic Surgery has showcased some diverse styles, with standout surgical selections coming from High Contrast ("Suddenly"), the X-Ploding Plastix ("Treat Me Mean, I Need The Reputation") and Zed Bias' debut d+b cut ("Something About This"). With some awesome tracks this is essential listening. Still sounding fresh this series will help you witness how the Hospital D+B sound developed.
Volume One stretched as far as some d+b exclusives; number Two hit a distinctly mo' jazz flavour, whilst 2003's 3rd chapter had a strong Scandinavian edge, coupled with some FWD>thinking breakstep! The main criteria here is 'alternative'...
