Greenlaw have arrived back from a very successful tour with World of D&B to fantastic reviews all round. The hard working duo really showed the US and Canadian ravers what they are all about and here below are a few comments from the promoters of some of the events they passed through. Congratulations to them both!
- “Many of our guests said Greenlaw Live was a highlight of the World of Drum & Bass 2012 event this past March. Skyla & Ozzie are amazing on stage. We agree! From the moment they took to the stage, their music & energy struck a chord with everyone in the room. We’re excited to have them back to Kelowa very soon.” -JGirl & Manousos – Footwerk.ca
- ” A truly delightful live experience with multi-colored layers of beats, bass, rhymes and melodies; ranging from the tranquil all the way to the heavy. Ozzie and Skyla J are perfectly in sync, cruising into different realms, BPM’s, styles and flows. They infuse soul into everything they create, making every performance unique and special, Definitely a Favourite in PR !!”

- “Greenlaw put together an electrifying live performance for the Brooklyn leg of the World of Drum & Bass tour. Spanning multiple styles of bass music,this is an act not to be missed!”
- Eshin (Profound Audio, NYC)
“Greenlaw brought to Buffalo a musical experience on a different level. The buzz about Greenlaw after the show was noticable. Definately want to have them back.”

Exclusive dates can be booked now for Europe, UK and starting in the USA in early May.
UMC is very very proud to announce the arrival of the mighty Grooverider to the roster. This long awaited addition is available with immediate effect for bookings Worldwide.
Grooverider began his DJing at illegal raves and warehouse parties in the UK in the late 1980s, and rose to prominence with partner Fabio through his sets at nightclub nights such as ‘Rage’. Grooverider was also on the London pirate radio station, Phase One, in the mid 1980s. The station also featured Colin Dale, Dave Angel,RD aka Dj Dodge, Booker T and Fabio. He originally played soul, hip hop and disco but later played house, upon being converted whilst hearing “Mysteries of Love” by Mr. Fingers.
Fabio and Grooverider began playing house at Mendoza’s in Brixton. From there the pair went on to a venue in Barrington Road in Brixton, but it was not until 1991 that they would really make their mark. That year, Grooverider and Fabio took up a residency at the ‘Rage’ event at the London venue, Heaven. Throughout the 1990s, Grooverider released tracks as Codename John and helped build the reputations of Matrix and Boymerang with releases on his own record label, Prototype. In 1997, Grooverider compiled the album, Prototype Years which featured the best tracks by various artists who appeared on his label.
His show on BBC Radio 1 (presented in conjunction with Fabio) attracted a devoted audience. Although Grooverider is known primarily as a DJ and radio presenter, he was also a recording artist under his artist name, and the ‘Codename John’ moniker. As a recording artist, Grooverider has released one album, Mysteries of Funk(Sony 1998), produced in conjunction with Optical, and a number of remixes including his reworkings of Jonny L’s “Piper” plus Roni Size/Represent’s “Share The Fall”. In 2005, he was holding a weekly Sunday session called Grace at the London club, Herbal. Grooverider returned to the BBC Radio 1 drum and bass show with Fabio on the 18 October 2008, and continues to co-present the show weekly on Sundays.
After a long time in making the brand new UMC website is finally here, along with some great new artist’s to boot. The roster has now been extended to include other urban genres and we hope you take the time to have a good look round and explore them. The new site is easy to use as each artist has their own micro site where you can find everything you need. All their latest information, all their social networking and downloadable press kits along with mixes for most of the DJ’s which you can listen to without navigating away from their page.

With the launch of the new site come some amazing new names to the roster starting with one of Drum & Bass’ pioneers.
LTJ Bukem
Just who is LTJ Bukem? Ground breaking DJ? Inspirational musician? Record label entrepreneur?Club visionary, perhaps? When the man behind those wire rimmed glasses and that disarming smile writes his job description just what does he put? The man who took the drum and bass concept from a small venue off London’s Charing Cross Road to the nation’s superclubs and then onto theinternational stage? The geezer whose records launched breakbeat into a brand new galaxy of sound? Or maybe he just writes ‘Renaissance man for a digital age’. In truth LTJ Bukem is all of the above. Although he wouldn’t like to admit it, LTJ Bukem is the living embodiment of the post-acid house entrepreneurial creative spirit. He is a mild mannered energy flash whose panoramic musical vision has found success in every area he has explored. From running sound systems to cutting up breaks at raves, from relocating the heart of breakbeat culture to redefining the spirit of drum and bass, the man known to his friends as Danny has sat at the forefront of breakbeat evolution, lighting the way with little more than a zest for life and a love of music. In other words, LTJ Bukem is a man on a mission!
DJ Cabbie
A relatively new comer to the D&B scene in comparison to Bukem, DJ Cabbie has firmly established himself as one of the leading production masterminds in Drum & Bass music. His uplifting and bass heavy tracks have provided the dance floor masses with an excuse to skank out all over the world, gracing some of the most prolific labels in the industry and reinforcing his dominance within the jump up genre.
Jumpin Jack Frost
Another innovator of the D&B Scene he was bitten by the music bug at an early age. South Londoner Frost hit the DJ circuit at 18 mixing Funk, Hip Hop and original Breakbeats and diving into the Acid House scene via the Carwash nights in the late 80′s with DJ’s like Grooverider, Bryan Gee, Fabio & Pete Stewart. When the rave scene exploded Frost was at it’s forefront enjoying the freedome of going with the flow and mixing drastically different styles of music to suit the mood of the moment. Starting at “The Fridge” in Brixton Frost went on to headline many legendary events of the era including Sunrise and Energy, the rest is history!
