   Forsaken: General Info
Member Since7/14/2006
Band Websitewww.virb.com/forsaken
Band Membersme and more often then not, Ben Blackmore.

I've made a lot of tunes, so I have many that are unreleased and will always remain so, for whatever reasons, ie: i haven't given them out/dodgyremixes/people think they're shit.

So why not give them away, noone spends any money, I have to do less white label runs of my dodgy tunes, everyone wins :D

So first up, being a massive Ed Rush and Optical fan, a while back a made a remix of Alien Girl. I've remixed this tune so many times, house, breaks, garage versions (none official. getme). The original is utter badness on Protoype, filp side's another insane tune. Go buy it.

ALIEN GIRL RMX


Secondly, I love this beat, I guess it's a bit wierd, not exactly dancefloor. I was considering doing it on the album, but I don't think it fits, so please have a listen ad see if you like it:

FORSAKEN FEAT. BEN BLACKMORE - ARMOUR


Third track is a remix I did of a friend of mine, the original is sick and I couldn't improve on it, but I tried to make it different:

JOKER - HOLLY BROOK PARK (FORSAKEN RMX)


The fourth tune is a beat I get asked about a lot mainly thanks to the Living Inside The Speaker DVD, a great documentry made about bristol when the dubstep scene had just gathered momentum here.

FORSAKEN - TAIKO RIDDIM
InfluencesLoads! Edwin Starr through to Hybrid. Dillinja to Aphex Twin. Tracy Chapman to Dom Roland.


MEMBERS OF BRISTOL:
---------------------------


Everyone needs to check out all the boys from Bristol because they all bringing something different, pushing different sound from anyone else:

- There's Pinch of Tectonic fame, a don on the decks and a genius in the studio. A nice guy and genuinely one of my top producers in the scene.

- Joker. If you don't know about Joker, you've been dumb and still are. Biggest and most unique Grime producer out there bar none. Got his own label for Bristol grime/dubstep heads, Kapsize. It will be massive, truss. All he needs to do now is get a bit better at Pro Evo.

- ThinKing, big selector, like Pinch, man is responsible for the dubstep scene in Bristol, bringing the sound to soo many new ears with his top draw mix sets. Also rune the Reduction Records label, which will one day hopefully see more of.

- Peverelist, one of the most forward thinking producers and label owners the dubstep scene has. I can't speak of him highly enough. Punch Drunk records is the lick, serious. Honoured to be released on it.

- Gemmy, 2008 was Gemmy's breakthrough year and well farking deserved. Another truly unique sound and now you can't turn your head for seeing this man on flyers or hear how his Punch Drunk release tears the place down.

- H.E.N.C.H, big boys on the scene, collective including Headhunter (on Tempa), Wedge, WhiteBoi & Komonazmuk (also on Tempa) and Jakes.

- Appleblim is pushing some real dub dubstep with his partner Shackleton and label Skull Disco and his new imprint Apple Pips.

- Deim, a good mate of mine, produced the flipside of my tune on the Immerse 'Substratum EP', an absolutely banger called 'Sitar Dub'.

- Gatekeeper is making some quality tunes of late, already done Tomb with Appleblim (Skull Disco), a big tune and then followed with the anthem 'Let Go' on Punch Drunk.

- Atki2 (one half of Monkey Steak - who also make absolutely big riddims) is an absolute don in my opinion, he has a style just absolutely unique and incredible production values. His stuff always has mad riddim and quality production and he is just a really really nice guy!

- Kidkut, badderman dj and runs the Immerse Records label. Put out 3 of my tunes on a label that has established itself as one of the best label for the dubstep/techno/broken axis.

- Blazey is one of, if not the, most hype dj in Bristol. Mashing up Bassline, Grime and Dubstep like noone else can. And I swear down, noone pulls a rewind like him either.

- Hyetal is one of the new names rapidly gaining much deserved attention. A superb ear for melodies and keen sense of rhythm I have been really vibing on the last beats from him. One to watch in the near future for sure!

- Sureskank crew, Neek, Batman, Superisk, B-Lam and god knows who else. All great guys, who hold great parties. If you get the chance you must pass through a Sueskank. vibes garaunteed!

- Rooted Records, the mecca for Bristol dubstep. Anyone and everyone in the scene passes through here on the regular (or at least when they got cash!) with Chris, Tom and Pedro, providing the very best selection in the South West, www.rootedrecords.co.uk


Woooo, I think that's everyone, more will be added over time I guess and all these people are added as friends if you want to check their myspace out.

Bristol baby, I love it.
