A rocket-fuelled ride that straddles the boundaries of drum’n’bass, breaks and dubstep, ‘Kryptonite’ is a masterpiece of sound design from one of the scene’s most pioneering figureheads.
In the making for over three years, ‘Kryptonite’ is a juggernaut of an LP that flickers with ease between his trademark caustic breakneck beats, feel-good vocal tracks and even some slamming dub-step manoeuvres.
Having blown his way into the scene as the fore-figure of NME’s “Wu-Tang of drum & bass”, Bad Company, back in 1998, Dan Stein has since “perhaps been the biggest influence on drum & bass we’ve ever known” according to Knowledge Mag.
With classics to the BC name such as “The Nine” (voted Best Track Of All Time by members of D&B Arena), Mo-Fire (no.22 in national charts) and many more, Fresh went solo in 2003 producing the no.11 summer chart hit “Barcelona” and even a no.4 hit for the Pet Shop Boys.
Having produced seminal tracks on labels such as Ram, V and Metalheadz and earning almost every accolade going with a DJ schedule to match, Fresh now resides on his own world- famous Breakbeat Kaos label with co-founder Adam F and continues to flourish.
