P Jam is back with his third installment on Hardrive. "Pepper Pot" is a grime dancehall infused track. It feels like P Jam took himself to King Jammy's studio and turned out this absolute banger - already getting a lot of pirate and underground club rotation. P Jam called upon Champion for "Chalice", which leans more towards the Studio One sound, and is also reminiscent of the early days of DMZ and FWD.

Terror Danjah presents Hardwired, a showcase and a statement of intent for his Hardrive label in 2013 and beyond. Hardwired highlights their best material so far, tracks that have been getting battered at the legendary collaboration club night they put together with Butterz in London at Cable. The focus on the club runs throughout, opening with a previously-unavailable version of Terror Danjah's "Full Attention" which was a summer radio smash back in 2011. Champion has gone from strength to strength since debuting with the Motherboard EP back in 2011, with "Crystal Meth" on Butterz and three releases on his own Formula label, including the anthem "Lighter." With a release on Shy FX's Digital Soundboy around the corner, a lot of new ears will pick up on his signature style. D.O.K. has released two singles on Hyperdub and has been producing for the emerging young MC talent in the grime scene. Hardwired offers a rare opportunity for solo D.O.K. material to be let out of his possession, as he notoriously retains most of his music for his DJ sets. P Jam released the Anger Management EP on Hardrive and "Arizona Skyz" is one of the highlights of the album, which also featured on Elijah & Skilliam's Rinse 17 compilation. Along with his crew, Terror has brought in a host of top talent to share the disc with. Falty DL, Bok Bok and Royal-T contribute fresh remixes to the Hardrive catalog. Kode 9's "Ice" is another rare treat for the enthusiasts. Swindle provides "Funktion," linking back up with Terror Danjah for the first time since he remixed him on Planet Mu. Joker and Terror's collaboration "Gully Goon Estate" also features, throwing back to a time when grime and dubstep were as closely sonically-linked as ever.

This is a revisit of one of the biggest club tracks of 2010, produced by Redlight. The original version was supported across the board, from dubstep heavyweights such as Skream, Benga, Hatcha and Plastician, to the leaders of the eclectic DJ pack like Mistajam and Toddla T. Fast forward to 2011, and Bok Bok and Royal T join the fold to give the catchy vocals an update. Along with the original Redlight production, the Mz Bratt a cappella is also included.

Terror Danjah presents the first step in the resurrection of his patented rhythm & grime sound. Ruby Lee Ryder's distinctive vocals have already landed the title track on the UK airwaves, and in the boxes of DJs like Skream, Mistajam and Target. Mr. Danjah also drops "East Village," a toast to the nights the Hardrive label hosted at the London club of the same name, and there's also a Roska remix of the title track.
