The band are renowned for the cinematic approach which they apply to their production, with many of their tracks being synced to big budget television shows, films and video games. Continuing to showcase their emotive and captivating sonic style the band release "Sky Full of Diamonds", the third single from their forthcoming studio album. The track is built around a forward-moving vibe brought by the punching drum pattern, adorned with guitar riffs custom built for vast festival crowds and layers of synth-led euphoria. Lyrically "Sky Full of Diamonds" speaks of overcoming the darkest moments of life and reminding us to always search for those glistening sparks of happiness, shining bright amongst the blackest of skies.Remix duties befall one of Hospital records biggest acts - Metrik, and the remix is already causing large tremors in DnB community. Speeding up the beats to roll at 170, and adding some almighty weight to the low end. "Sky Full Of Diamonds- Metrik remix" is an unadulterated summer anthem.

Hybrid - Flashpoint (Official Video) distinctiverecords 2021-03-31 | This is the official music video / short film for Hybrid's new single, Flashpoint.Buy / Stream : ffm.to/hybridflashpointMulti award winning, decade spanning, film scoring UK electronic duo Hybrid return to this scarred and embattled world with the first single from what will be their sixth studio album (July 2021).'Flashpoint' doesn't try to hide it's wide screen filmic dynamics, with soaring melodies, trademark thunderous bass and driving synths up front and centre; meanwhile, the rolling breaks that have underpinned the duo's twenty five year career have rarely sounded more current than in today's electronic landscape.The remix comes from new Brainfeeder artist Tutara Peak ( aka; Ekcle ) and anyone familiar with Flying Lotus's bespoke and hallowed imprint won't be surprised to discover a meditative six minute + musical journey, one that still manages to pack understated, punchy energy amongst reflective auditory pools and abstract, off-trail musical excursions.

The single once again brings together UK-based, Mike and Charlotte's passion for combining emotionally powered cinematic pieces with astute, intricate and intelligent electronic production.The seven track release comes with a brand new set of remixes. We open up with a brand new version from Hybrid themselves. The Hybrid "Fake Euros Remix" strips back the melodic song structures of the original and goes straight for the breakbeat, hi-energy jugular. Darting arpeggios, crunching beats and the even occasional rap make this one a real treat.Jumping next onto an electronic tip UK based D Ramirez delivers a duo of mixes which go down the low slung house avenue. It wouldn't be D Ramirez without the detuned synths and of course they make a devastating appearance. Diverting into the drum and bass arena UK based Vorso takes the reigns for his version. Tension, groove and just the right amount of controlled musical aggression power his two versions along. There is a short film for "Hold Your Breath" and it really is something quite special. An assembled team of Hollywood greats have put together an 8 minute epic starting James Purefoy (The Following, Altered Carbon, Rome, High Rise), Academy Award Winning Director, John Stephenson (Animal Farm, Dark Crystal, Jim Henson's Creature Shop), Director of photography, Mike Brewster (Guardians of the Galaxy, Harry Potter) and the film crew from Star Wars to create this widescreen short film. youtube.com/watch?v=4q7sYY6d4ggLight Of The Fearless is available on CD, Download and now limited edition 2 x LP Red Vinyl.

Hybrid - Disappear Here distinctiverecords 2018-11-19 | Since first bursting onto the scene with the now classic album 'Wide Angle' in 1999, the Swansea, Wales-based Hybrid have been known as one of the most forward thinking and technically skilled acts in electronic dance music. Blurring the line between in-studio production and live presentation, Hybrid are one of the few remaining dance acts to perform live with a classic band setup. Though, much has changed on the road to Hybrid's fourth artist album Disappear Here. Most notable is the addition of Hybrid's newest member -- singer/ songwriter Charlotte James -- to go along with founders Chris Healings and Mike Truman. Charlotte's impact is marked as Disappear Here is truly an album of real songs and not merely dance beats with vocals on top. It offers a lot more than anything Hybrid has ever previously written and pushes boundaries in every way. With Disappear Here, Hybrid have managed to create an epic and unique sound which has progressed dramatically from its original dance inception but still retains much of what makes electronic music so exciting. "This album offers a lot more than anything we've managed to write in the past", Healings says. "Charlotte comes from that singer/songwriter/performer world and she really inspired us to write something much more song based. Working so much with her we feel like there's a feeling of going somewhere else or doing something that will last longer in a live capacity. The music definitely reflects our desire to be a band but firmly rooted in dance music".As the opening track for the album, 'Empire' meets Healings' statement of intent for the album. Its pounding live drums and moody, tense atmospherics set the stage and gradually build layers of electric guitars and sweeping strings performed by the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra. 'Can You Hear Me' is a shining moment combining the vocals of Charlotte and Tim Hutton (who also plays bass for Ian Brown, The Prodigy), while 'Green Shell Suit' is a swirling chill out reprise. 'Every Word' brings a warm, organic feel with the combination of haunting slide guitar, a warm arpeggiated acoustic and a brace of wonky but playful sound design. Album title track 'Disappear Here' mixes a powerful piano driven song over the crunching Hybrid production and the stadium electronica of 'Formula of Fear' presents one of the album's most intense peaks. Venturing further on, 'Salt' is encrusted with warped bass lines and brush drums; 'Original Sin' is a soundscape house music monster and 'Take A Fall' features a rock-breaks edge with Tim Hutton grabbing hold of the mic. Before closing out with the divine 'Numb'. Hybrid presents the album's touchstone and first single 'Break My Soul'. It's all cinematic from the triumphant chorus and 'Day in The Life' strings to the haunting breakdown and filmic overtones. P & C 2010 Distinctive Recordshttp://www.distinctiverecords.com

Hybrid - Long Time Coming distinctiverecords 2018-09-17 | OUT NOWBUY: fanlink.to/Hybrid-LOTFLight of the Fearless, Hybrid's fifth artist album, brings together UK-based, Mike and Charlotte's passion for combining emotionally powered cinematic pieces with astute, intricate and intelligent electronic production. This long-awaited work is firmly based on the foundation of the principles and standards set by previous albums but here there's a clear development and evolution. Never wanting to write the same album twice, Mike and Charlotte have taken another step forward and have created a cinematic, electronic album with songs that stylistically borrow from their childhood soundtracks of soul, funk & hip-hop.

The originals tension is amplified with an extended Massive Attack "Teardrops" style intro before breaking into slabs of electronic synth evilness. UK based house stalwart Redanka is next up with his euphoric house take on "We Come And Go". The beats are big and bold. The package rounds off with instrumentals of the two original versions.SINGLE RELEASE DATE: 1st July 2016John Graham started out in the 1990s as a jungle and house producer.

Johns sound is a contemporary indie-rock electronic crossover with heaps of swagger. “Something New” melds influences such as the Stone Roses, Kasabian, The Cure, Depeche Mode with the sweeping electronic soundscapes. First up is the bombastic original, it mixes a rock under beat with thunderous electronic production, dirty distorted basses and wailing guitars. Add in a dose of sweeping cinematic strings from Prague Philharmonic Orchestra and that all adds up to one big sound.Next in the package is a real treat for all Electronic Music fans. Record-label mates Hybrid deliver their first remix in over 2 years. Hybrid are now busy scoring big budget Hollywood films, their sound is still right on the money however. They transmute the original into an breakbeat fest with darting rhythms, crunching synths, new vocals and bags of cinematic scope. To round off the package we take a trip to Japan where 06R gets busy robotic electro beats, big sweeping strings and pounding basslines. The package also includes a Hybrid instrumental mix as the last track. John Graham's debut solo album “Cold Sun” is available on Distinctive Records.Also check out Johns first single ‘Roll the Dice’ and the amazing video – not suitable for those with a fear of heights, it blends off kilter performance footage with a montage of adrenaline pumping, high risk stunts. youtube.com/watch?v=I9IMUpbSqo4&feature=youtu.beAll words & music written by John GrahamProduced by John Graham.Guitars by John Graham & Mike Hiratzka.Strings by The Prague Philharmonic Orchestra.
