Leeds & Huddersfield, West Yorkshire. How did TC1 & stresslevel get into music? Generally for both of them the general interest in dance music all kicked off back in our school days. LFO, 808 State, and some of the rave stuff like Prodigy, Altern 8 etc that was getting in the charts at the time. For Stress Level: As far as getting into writing music goes, I started messing around with beats and samples from when I was at college. For Ant TC1: It was the dj'ing side that grabbed me first. I remember a 'Grooverider @ Fantazia' Tape from 1992 in particular that really got me hooked on the dj'ing aspect of the music. I bought some belt drive turntables and a few months later I got my first slot on pirate radio, then I progressed on to playing in clubs at 16, production came a good few years later for me. What music has/does inspire or influence us? In the earlier jungle days it was artists like Omni Trio, Roni Size, Die, Krust, Doc Scott, Hidden agenda all that definitely had an impact in terms of wanting to get involved in making the music. Inspiration for our own tunes is something different - it can come from going out, an idea popping into your head at a strange moment, a wicked sample you've found, or just what mood you're in at the time. Other info Our tracks to date have received strong support with Fabio airing 9 of our tracks to date so far on his Radio 1 show, Grooverider has aired the XRS remix of "No Way back" on his Radio 1 show as well as our mix of Chris SU's "Satisfy". Our tracks have also received support from the likes of Bailey, Flight, Friction, Dbridge & L-Double (all on 1xtra) and club play on dub from the likes of Goldie, Klute, Zinc, Calibre, Artificial Intelligence, A-sides, Simon Bassline, Total Science, High Contrast, LTJ Bukem, Nu:Tone, Commix, Brian G, Dj Lee and Storm to name a good few. Ant TC1 is still running the general management side of Dispatch Recordings. Releases lined up for 2008 include material from the likes of Survival, Zero Tolerance, Steo, Atlantic Connection, Stress Level & TC1, Tactile and Chris SU. Also watch out for Ant TC1's mix cd "Mixed & Dispatched" still out on general release and a future follow up "Mixed & Dispatched part 2" this year.

SpectraSoul The last 12 months has seen SpectraSoul rise as one of the most exciting new talents within the drum and bass scene, and they continue to ride the crest of the wave of new producers. Having spent the last year defining and refining their musical techniques, SpectraSoul have gained a reputation for bridging the gap between light & dark, hard & smooth, both in the studio and within their DJ sets.Last year saw the release of highly acclaimed "III Note Soul" and "Cherry Smoke" on Shogun:LTD, with both tracks gaining support from all the main players in the game and securing their place on the d&b map. Releases have snowballed from there on, with signings to Renegade Recordings, WestBay International, Soundtrax, a debut EP on Nu:Directions, and further releases on DJ Friction's Shogun Audio and SGN:LTD imprints. Showcasing their talents on the turntables at some of the most prestigious venues throughout the UK and Europe, SpectraSoul have gained residencies at Shogun events in both London and Brighton, and prove to be a popular choice for promoters across the globe with an ever-growing booking schedule for 2008. Having gained solid DJ support from the likes of Friction, Fabio, DJ Marky, Klute, Logistics, Commix, Break and D-Bridge amongst others, the duo's sound has echoed around dance floors worldwide. The coming months see releases from SpectraSoul on some of the biggest labels within drum and bass, collaborations with other pioneer producers, and some exciting remix projects to look forward to.With everything taken into account, 2008 is sure to be a big year for the duo. http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=71628848 http://www.shogunaudio.co.uk/ (information provided by the organiser)
