Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010. Posted by Ash

More signings for Songs In The Key Of Knife!

First up, we welcome the versatile writing skills of Matan Zohar aka MRSA. Matan will be supplying deadly and contagious drum+bass and dubstep for Key Of Knife, but is also well known for his output under the name Mat Zo.

If that wasn’t enough Otto Hassinen aka Trisector, accompanied by his Takomo production partner Pekka Kokkonen, wade in with a sackful of heavyweight drum+bass, dubstep and breakbeat.

Raiden and Stanza check in
Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010. Posted by Ash

The latest signings to Songs In The Key Of Knife represent both experience and youth in equal measure.

Raiden needs no introducing, having been tearing up the drum+bass scene for the best part of a decade, releasing on labels such as Renegade Hardware, Architecture and his own imprints Offkey and new label Voodoo.

Stanza may be a relative newcomer to music production but, with an ear for high-quality music as an acomplished DJ, he is no stranger to the world of drum+bass. Songs In The Key Of Knife continues to demonstrate a commitment to the grass roots of music… if the name Stanza is new to you now, it won’t be for long!

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010. Posted by Ash

Dmitry Nekrasov’s music has been described as “nothing short of organized chaos”, raw aggression that has been harnessed and sculptured into rhythmical dancefloor perfection. Now he brings his finely-tuned neurofunk sound to Songs In The Key Of Knife.

Engage is set for big things in 2010 and beyond, his track ‘Above The Clouds’ is due out in March on Noisia’s brand new Invisible imprint. For more about Dmitry, check out his Key Of Knife writer page or his MySpace…
