Chase & Status have been rulers of the commercial D’n'B and Dubstep world for sometime now, breaking into the mainstream with tracks like “End Credits” with Plan B and more recently, the storming “Blind Faith” – Not to mention producing for Bajan superstar Rihanna!
Recently, they opened up the doors for lesser known producers and ran a competition to find a remix for their up-and-coming release “Time” featuring Delilah.
..and fuck me, who should win but our very own Scouse production wizard, Kev Willow.
“As soon as we heard Kev Willow’s remix we knew we’d found the winner. We loved the music used in the intro, and the garage / Todd Edwards vibe with the cut up vocals was an original concept for dubstep. It was a different and exciting sounding remix and he really put his own stamp on it.”
Ladies and Gentleman, after much anticipation The Prototype’s debut dubstep EP can now be downloaded from iTunes, Amazon, Play.com, Juno etc etc from tomorrow!
After a spending 2010 racking up remixes for the likes of Natisse and Kof, Kev Willow aka The Prototype has put together the Plan of Action EP, a blistering, eclectic slice of Dubstep. Ranging from hard and aggressive dancefloor fillers like “Bass Be Louder”, to the more commercial offering “Got Me Feelin” and the floaty ambience “4am”, Plan of Action brings together sounds from across the ever expanding spectrum that is Dubstep.
For those down south, If you can hold on ’til February The Prototype & Cee will be performing alongside Avosetta and numerous other acts at an event hosted by Test Pilot Music & SHhhh! Clothing at Open in Norwich.. exact date to be confirmed shortly.
The day will feature a series of music, graffiti and basketball workshops, followed by bands, DJs, live graffiti jams, freestyle basketball demos and breakdance shows in the evening.
