Aquasky

Born out of the jazzy, liquid basements of abstract drum n bass, the infamous Aquasky stormed beyond the stylistic confines of genre eating itself and forged a spectacular history slicing across spectrums and laying waste to full throttle dancefloors. As a fundamental, inspirational driving force behind the golden age of breaks, they opened the millenium with riotous banger after rollicking tune as the original party vibes were lashed kicking, screaming and rushing their nuts off back onto the floors. Outrageous basslines and sizzling beats dropped thick n fast under all manner of mayhem - pure torrid tear out as they stamped their unforgettable mark on one of party music’s most driving peaks.Their epic collaborations with the Ragga Twins have

danced dancehall lockdown through the years, and their relentless energy and eye poppingly prolific output has seen all manner of beats, breaks, vibes and styles rocket through both their studios and their label, Passenger to pound warehouse walls into spent submission. Kicking up chaos and breaking back out into the eye of the storm yet again with their new album, Raise the Devil - a white knuckle ride through sinsister, ruthless bass and controlled anarchy’s smiling face, Aquasky have rammed the rave back down a quickening culture’s eager throat. As the windows shake and shatter with raw, gleaming frequency, we caught up with Brent from the notorious trio for a chat.
