Launched in 2005 by original '90s Jungle pioneer, Shy FX, Digital Soundboy quickly established itself as one of the UK‘s most exciting labels, its quality over quantity ethos making it a standard bearer for the UK‘s world leading bass music scene. With a back catalogue that in-cludes some of the biggest club hits of the past ten years, including tracks from Skream, Benga, Redlight and Jess Mills, and a reputation for throwing the biggest parties around, Digital Soundboy‘s position in dance history is assured. Today the label‘s roster of Shy FX, Breakage, B.Traits, Youngman, Dismantle and Stamina MC are all successful artists in their own right, but first and foremost Digital Soundboy remains a family, one that plays, parties and produces together and together con-tinues to break new ground.
The first officially released Digital Soundboy mix; FABRICLIVE 63 per-fectly captures the carnival spirit of the label and its parties. From drum n‘ bass to dubstep, dancehall to garage, via excursions into house and be-yond FABRICLIVE 63 showcases the Digital Soundboy crew‘s ability to bring together myriad genres and styles in the freshest way possible and create a pure party-starting selection. Mixed by Shy FX, B.Traits and Breakage, each separately choosing their favourite tracks before working on the mix together in the Digital Soundboy studio, FABRICLIVE 63 features a mix of exclusive dubs and upcoming releases from the Digital Soundboy family; tracks such as "Zed Bias" "Heavy Water Riddim" and Dismantle's "Warp", classic anthems like Shy FX's "Original Nuttah", and the unexpected such as M.A.N.D.Y vs Booka Shade "Body Language". An inspired selection that will put a smile on many a face and a bounce in your step, FABRICLIVE 63 ducks and weaves its way across the musical spectrum, and like the label itself, refuses to be pigeonholed.
