Kryptonite

DJ Fresh's (real name Dan Stein) new album has dropped!
The 33 year old Drum and Bass DJ has released Kryptonite, his second studio effort on Breakbeat Kaos (owned by Fresh and Adam F) on 16 August 2010. The album primarily features drum & bass/jungle tracks (With the exception of Fresh's go at Dubstep in Fight! and Chacruna), featuring drum and bass group Sigma and features vocals from names like Stamina MC, Koko (aka Massive Attack vocalist Yolanda), Ce'Cile and Valkyrie.

Video for second single from the album, 'Hypercaine'.

The first single from the album is the last track on the album 'Heavyweight', a very dark drum and bass song, released on 7th september 2009, this track does well to display his early style.
The next single is arguably his most famous track, Hypercaine, released back in october 2009,

Gold Dust was the third single to be released in august 2010, aswell as the Talkbox/Fight! single.
Gold Dust is a big, feelgood tune with bouncy vocals from Ce'Cile loosening the song up, talkbox is the huge screaming intro the album deserves, with the catchy riffs all over, this track will definatly become a favorite. One of the most impressive tracks on the album is the penultimate track, Fight! The song feels like it literally packs a punch and you cant fight it!
If the opening of Kryptonite from 'Talkbox' wasnt big enough, then lassitude will surely knock you off your feet. liquid Drum and Bass, how it should be!
