High Contrast - Tough Guys Dont Dance (2007)
We have something new here on Rlslog. It’s a Drum ‘n Bass album. We never posted such an album before, because we didn’t know if you guys would like it. But we give it a shot now, so I hope we have a lot of readers that love it! For the people who like this genre, it’s a damn great album!
The incredible third album from Hospital’s original DnB prodigy. A lot has changed since High Contrast’s debut “True Colours” dropped in 2002 and injected a new lease of life to the DnB scene. Artists have come and gone since then, and a whole host of new producers influenced by the High Contrast sound have come through the ranks. In 2004 he proved that he was still at the top of his game with his second long player “High Society” - another collection of anthems including the massive “Racing Green” and “Basement Track” and now he’s back to raise the bar once again, and take his sound to new heights.

The new album “Tough Guys Don’t Dance” is released on the 1st of October 2007. The D&B producer who people that don’t even like D&B will listen to, since “High Society” High Contrast has found himself the remixer of choice for the likes of Missy Elliot, The White Stripes, Blaze and Basement Jaxx. Each of these incredible versions finding favour with Radio One – with even daytime DJs unable to stay away.

gotta admit never listened to this kind of muzik before, but this album rux (Y)
Thanks
never tried this genre will fancy it though but try not turn rlslog into a techno dance album site coz they do have a tendency of coming with a new mixtape or collection every day i.e
VA - @#$
ministry fo sound -@#$$ etc etc
@indianpunk
We won’t. Maybe I post an album of this genre every week (did someone say: sunday drum ‘n bass day?). But don’t worry, we are not gonna post this every day
just wanted to say thanks and that more of this would be appreciated. atmospheric stuff, drum and bass. Deep house etc.
Cheers,
Z
Nice initiative, hope we’ll see more of less known genres, cuz isn’t that what makes bittorrent so great?
Discovering stuff that you didn’t know you liked.
Wicked, jungle is massive. Incredible.
Cheers, good to see some quality dnb on rlslog… keep up the great work!
wicked release! been listening to High Contrast’s Essential Mix too. proper liquidnb
WICKED !!!!

@ #39, High Contrast is one man from Wales, not a group!

check this:www.funkysouls.com all kind of music (High Contrast about 3 weeks ago there)
the music section suddenly went up in my opinion!!!
perfect upload ;):D cheers!
Hello all, Don’t take me wrong i love D&B however there is 2 types of D&B. One is very dark and club based sort of D&B and there is the one wich is what this album is light and easy to listen to. I loved this D&B CD. The group is brilliant and thank to rlslog i found them. I would never ever known about this otherwise.
What a great album and a great response in the comments, could we have more of this please. Would love to hear some of these tunes on a club sound system. REEEEEEEEWWWWWIIIIINNNNNNDDDDD!
@ 54. It’s not a “group”, High Contrast is ONE guy from Wales.
Also there are not just 2 types of D&B. D&B incorporates many genres. Some sub genres of D&B include:
Darkstep (or “Darkside” or “Dark”)
Drumfunk (or “Choppage”, “Edits”)
Dubstep
Electrostep (or “Trancestep”)
Futurestep
Hardstep
Intelligent (or “Atmospheric” or “Ambient”)
Jazzstep (or “Jazz and Bass”)
Jump-Up
Jungle or Ragga Jungle
Liquid funk (or simply “Liquid”)
Neurofunk (or “Neuro”)
Sambass (or “Brazilian Drum and Bass”)
Techstep (or “Tech”)
This album is awesome, just bought it on cd. Love the 1995 style throwback trax- If We Ever and The Ghost of Jungle Past. Wicked
Does anyone know where they got the lines from Metamorphosis came from?…what movie?
