⚠️ **BIGGEST NAME IN A DECADE** ⚠️
Regulate are proud to announce that we will be welcoming none other than **SERUM!** 👑
A combination of hard graft and over 10 years of experience in DJing and production has seen Serum rise from relative obscurity into being one of the most prolific of the new breed of dnb producers. His mix of vintage jungle and futuristic modern jump up has shown widespread appeal, with tracks being picked up by many of the scene's biggest brands, such as Dread, Creative Source, Grid and Digital... Soundboy and V as well as many of the scene's freshest up and coming labels.
Serum's career in dnb began after being spotted by veteran producer Ray Keith, and signed exclusively to the legendary Dread imprint. The 4 years that followed saw him releasing a string of singles and EPs, and remixing classic tracks like "Sing Time" and "Girls Dem Want it", as well as "Dub Dread" which became the title track for a string of mix albums on Dread.
After finishing his stint with Dread, the tunes came thick and fast. "Snake Fist" 🐍 and "Papa Lover Remix" spent several weeks in the Radio 1 drum & bass chart, and his remixes for Top Cat and Twisted Individual and tracks on Liquid V, Grid, Mac 2 and Critical all led to him receiving regular play from DJs like Andy C, Friction, Bryan G, Fabio, Shy FX, Dillinja, Ray Keith, Marky and many more. 🎶
Serum's reputation as a top class producer brought an increase in DJ bookings that has seen Serum playing all over Europe and at some of the top venues in the UK, such as Matter, Ministry of Sound, Fabric, Herbal, and the Q Club, where he has showcased his rapid fire blend of upfront smashers and classic old skool remixes. He is also a regular fixture on the radio and internet, having appeared on 1xtra, DNBTV, Kool FM, Pyro Radio, Bassdrive, Rude FM and Drum & Bass Worldwide. 🌍🎧
Alongside him, we are thrilled to be able to bring you one of the best in the business from the world of the MC’s - **Carasel** 👊
"Different flows for different shows" is how Carasel responds when asked to describe his style. Never one to be pigeonholed into one corner of the sparse and ever changing Drum & Bass landscape, Cara is just as well known for his high energy, fast paced lyrical sets going toe to toe with the MC greats at his residency at D&B institution Warning, as he is holding down 3 hour sets letting music be very much at the forefront and focus point at his regular appearances at Hospitality. 🎤🔥
Versatility is key, being able to read the crowd, when to hype and when to get lyrical is something that can only be perfected with years of experience and Carasel has that by the truckload. He has worked and performed with pretty much every major brand in the scene and has lent his hosting abilities to scores of festivals and club nights of all shapes & sizes in many different countries and continents, being able to adapt has been essential. 🌍🎶
Carasel holds a great passion for the music he loves & sets himself ahead of the pack with a great knowledge of the music he is hosting. He presents a weekly radio show showcasing 100% new music on Bristol’s Ujima 98fm and runs his own label AFT Records. 📻🎶
He has had vocal releases on some of Drum & Bass most respected labels including Hospital Records, Formation, Audio Clone and even released his own debut solo album, ‘Progression’ in 2012 (A well received Hip-Hop project which featured collaborations with some of the biggest artists in the d&b scene) which once again underlined Carasel’s versatility as both a host and recording artist. 🎤💿
Carasel's tracks have gained radio support on BBC Radio 1, 1xtra, Kiss & Rinse and he has appeared as a guest on Crissy Criss’s & Hype’s show as a live guest, his performance with Sigma at Glastonbury was even broadcast live to the world on BBC Radio1. He has also had printed press spots in Knowledge, ATM, Trap, Mixmag and many more. 📰📻
Carasel has been a preferred host of choice for a wide range of artists. Sigma, TC, Benny Page, Fred V & Grafix, DC Breaks, & Black Sun Empire have all called on his services regularly and this speaks volumes about his ability to adapt to all styles of drum & bass. His passion & hunger show no sign of fading any time soon & we at Urban Agency are throwing our weight behind Carasel, an exceptional host with a vast respect for the music, guaranteed to take any party to a higher level. You can be assured that when Carasel is on stage the show will be lyrically enhanced but it will still be the music doing the talking. 🎤🎶
