Viral Essence
ViralEssence formed at the beginning of 2006 after meeting on the Drum N Bass forum www.spinwarp.com. After meeting up intially just to record vocals for "Embers" and "Doing Fine Now" a jam immediatley sparked up and gave birth to "Green Bliss". The finer details were mastered later on. Both "Embers" and "Green Bliss" smashed the charts on www.mp3unsigned.com - hitting number 1 within the first week of entry. Having held two remix comps since they formed , hosted on www.Battleofthebeatz.com, some excellent remixes have been created and signed. C.A.B.L.E.S Remix of ViralEssence "Green Bliss" was signed and released on BC Presents compilation CD Bad Taste 2. Synrgy also had sucess with his remix of ViralEssence "Embers" which was signed and released on InDaJungle label.
ViralEssence released their debut album "Into the Light" independantly in the summer months of 2007. The 15 track CD is a mixture of DnB influences, Trip Hop, Lounge and Chill Out. Described as a "Heady Mix" in a recent review in Issue 72 of Weed World their debut album is turning heads.....

:-) hehehhe yeh, I know it was hun. was only playing back atcha. I am gutted though and if you can find somewhere that has a copy, I'd well appreciate it. Juno was showing out of stock when I looked yesterday. I proper wanted to drop that on Friday as well coz I know no-one will have heard it and the lil DnB crowd I get in now would have gone mental for it.
Aaawww, it is sweet of you to put me there, fankoo :-) Anywayz, "vinyl murdering goon"? Bit harsh when I'm the one who's suffering. And I can't get another copy. Am I tres/uber gutted or what??
Anyone want proof that ViralEssence is Kick-Arse??? One of my DJ friends is outwardly JEALOUS of what I'm trying to do for VE. I have to kill their green monster. I'm glad I didn't toss Excalibur back into the river like everyone thinks I did! :) :)
