Soul:ution Vol. 1

"Truly inspiring label that's bringing the much needed funk back to drum n' bass."
- Goldie

"Great music from a refreshing label and you know it's only the start."
- LTJ Bukem

"The very best quality music with a whole lot of soul… one of the best labels around."
- Fabio.

Soul:R is the label headed by M.I.S.T. (aka Marcus Intalex and ST Files) who've always provided d&b with a guarantee of quality over quantity, pushing the envelope at every stage. This is proven by their consistent attraction of remix requests from the likes of 4Hero, Un Cut, Roni Size, Amp Fiddler and MJ Cole, not to mention the three esteemed gentlemen quoted above.
Soul:R is home to not only M.I.S.T. recordings, but also the work of Calibre, High Contrast, DJ Marky, D.Kay and a host of others. Soul:ution Vol. 1 brings together the highlights of the label's celebrated Soul:ution vinyl series, plus eight previously unreleased tracks!

Soul:ution Vol. 1 embodies the regeneration of organic d&b of late: driven by melody and song structure whilst still catering for the ever present dance floor. Combine this with the fact that 13 of the 16 tracks are totally exclusive to this CD mix and you have a package that is not only unique but exciting and with serious collectors appeal

Initial response to Soul:ution Vol. 1 has seen this compilation draw comparisons to DJ Marky's "The Brazilian Job"

"If I'm looking for a quality tune to play: production, musical content and a damn good groove, then I invariably look for a Soul:R cut." - Doc Scott
