cycom
Hamburg, Germany
Cycom was first inspired by drum\'n\'bass when he witnessed Grooverider play the legendary Metalheadz Sunday Session@Blue Note in London. After spending countless hours developing his production skills and deciphering the rhythmic mayhem of breakbeat music, he released his first tracks to a large audience on mp3.com. From then on, things quickly evolved. He got in touch with Simon V from Santorin Records, the label which released his first 12\" only 3 months later (a remix of Simon V\'s \"Broken Promise\"). The press reaction was immediate and overwhelmingly positive. Cycom has released on various international labels and is renown for his distinctive sound and trademarkbeats.

The second track called "Blow up" reveals the man's hiphop roots: deadly deep subs meet one head nodder of a beat... and it keeps rollin' and rollin'. And then there's the funked up mystery of "The Dream" bringing you broken beats combined with haunting atmospheres reminiscent of the early years of drum ...

cycom - isotope
October 2008
Plainaudio's own Cycom is back with his third release on our beloved label. After 'Misgiving' within the Santorin's 10th anniversary series and 'Kingsnake' and 'Nomad' on Sub's Syncopathic label, we are happy to start the cold season of the year with some rather warm and mellow pieces from the Hamburg vaults. Summer's over - people start pulling out their winter coats - thick, rough and heavy, stuffed with fur and a bit of a smell of leather ('Isotope'). The heating plants get ready for the rai ...
