Originally from Sao Paolo but on the London drum and bass scene for the last eleven years, S.P.Y has just dropped his epic two-part Back to Basics LP. Released within six months of each other, Chapter One and Two feature collaborations with Total Science, Rene La Vice and vocal tracks from the likes of Diane Charlemagne, Grimm and DRS MC. The 24 tracks blend the uplifting drum and bass timbre of his previous LP, What the Future Holds, and his earlier Love & Hate EP, with a darker, more deeply-rooted house sound. He’s also done stonkingly good remixes with pal, DJ Marky, on Deadmau5’s ‘Strobe’, Claude von Stroke’s ‘Aundy’ and LTJ Bukem’s ‘Atlantis’, and of Chase & Status’s ‘Flashing Lights’ and Delilah’s ‘Go’. He also co-wrote the tune for the 2014 Street Child World Cup along with London Elektricity and Back to Basics collaborator Diane Charlemagne. He’s earned a spot on the bill for Tomorrowland, Global Gathering and the Electric Daisy Carnival and plays a smashing live set. The live atmosphere is ecstatic. There’s an even mix of brimming kids and old scene denizens and S.P.Y manages to cover all the bases.
