Feel the Heat EP

Side A Maëlan: Feel The Heat (produced by Alchemyst)

Side B Alchemyst : Bitch Smackin? Killa Grimelock : Total Recall

Stainage Records Manufactured and distributed by Cargo Records Cat. N° - STAIN003

Feel the Heat drops a fusion between dancehall elements and uplifting mid range basslines that stick effortlessly with Maëlan's vocals to bring a summer-fresh positive vibe that guarantees instant rewinding and dancefloor madness.

On Bitch Smackin? Killa Alchemyst is reaching for his darkside and delivers a badman grimey-crunky riddim where the bass riff is the perfect hook and the smashing hammer style drums won't leave you intact. This one is a pure energy blow for the hottest raves: dangerous and powerful!

Grimelock?s Total Recall makes a perfect exit in an introspective journey through a tense cinematic soundscape that builds toward a shattering blast of sonic artillery.

Tunes have been rinsed and rewound by the Stainage crew (Grimelock, Bunzer0, Alchemyst, Saviour) in the past year at radio shows, parties and festivals throughout Belgium, France, Holland, Romania, Hungary and USA.

ALCHEMYST Drum & bass DJ since 1998, time has come to put decks and this musical style aside, in quest of new sounds. He has dedicated himself to production from 2001 onwards. Seeking for the opening of different approaches, this music appeals the ear, disturbs and arouses emotions. This style stands between Grime and Dubstep, regarding its structure and atmosphere, and Electronica concerning the opening and tone Alchemyst joins heavy and strong sounds half way between traditional and industrial, heavy and airy atmosphere, tuneful and disorganized rhythms, atmospheric and mystic feeling. Experience this inexorable music wave.

** GRIMELOCK ** have been steadily building a name for them throughout Europe as Belgium?s finest bass music export. Coming from the early Belgian jungle scene, Wallace and Kalib created Grimelock in 2004. MC's Maëlan and Dynamic joined the crew shortly after to fill the shows with their energy. On stage they bring a unique, explosive and fast-paced combination of dubstep, garage, electro and hip hop in which are blended own productions, exclusive dubplates and timeless classics. Add to this the raw live energy of the MC?s and don?t be surprised if you find yourself bouncing, sweating and screaming for more. In 2008 they set up Stainage Records, a label aiming to promote Belgian productions worldwide. They were also responsible for the infamous Stainage parties that brought all the biggest dubstep names in Brussels ages before the hype.

About Stainage

Stainage was the name used by Kalib and Marsellus Wallace (Grimelock) for their parties, circa 2005. They invited some of the most genre defining producers to play in Brussels at a point when dubstep just started bubbling and the hunger for freshness was measured by the evergrowing number of enthusiasts. Three years later, time has come to step up to a next level. Stainage Records was set up in 2008 with the purpose to promote quality Belgian bass oriented music.
