Survival (UK) & Consequence (Aus)

Grounded & The Collective present:

Survival & Consequence - Survive for Never NZ Tour

This July will see the long awaited arrival of Survival to our shores to showcase his unique flavour of Drum and Bass direct from the U.K. Accompanying him will be the Kiwi artist now based in Melbourne known as Consequence. 2009 saw both Survival and Consequence release their debut albums on dBridge's hugely respected label Exit Records which has inspired this combination of the Survive For Never tour. Both of these albums possess the style and quality that you would expect to be selected and backed by a drum and bass Don such as dBridge and you can be assured that this will be a DnB night with a special difference.

-- Survival:

Audio Tactics / Exit / DNAudio / Quarantine

Surfacing under the guises of Akustic Research and Banaczech on Vinyl Addiction and Partisan Recordings in 1995, Steve Kielty parted company with co-conspirator Roy McCabe and after a long break from drum & bass re-emerged as Survival in 2005.

With a plethora of well received releases on labels including Creative Source, DNAudio, Quarantine, Critical, Shogun Audio as well as his debut self titled album released on Exit Records in 2009 show that Survival’s deep, organic sound has rapidly earned him a reputation as one of the true craftsmen of modern Drum & Bass.

Collaborations with D-Bridge, Break, Silent Witness, Fierce, Sabre, Chris Inperspective and Zero Tolerance clearly illustrate the respect he commands from his peers and with his newly launched Audio Tactics label providing a focused outlet for his productions his fan base is expanding as rapidly as his discography.

-- Consequence:

Cam McLaren a.k.a. Consequence was originally born in Toronto, Canada. Early on in life he moved to New Zealand, where he found his love of music. He now resides in Melbourne, Victoria where his DJ services are in high demand.

This extremely talented young producer has been turning the heads of some of the Drum & Bass scene’s most respected DJs and label owners. With support from the likes of Goldie, Doc Scott, Loxy, dBridge & Instra:mental helping to build anticpation, his debut LP 'Live for Never' has recently been released on Exit Records. He has risen to the challenge of creating a truly unique album for Exit - rich in texture, atmosphere and bass weight - in a style all of his own. A core member of the Autonomic family, he's already collaborated with ASC, dBridge and Instra:mental as well as providing exclusive material for their upcoming Fabriclive 50 CD. Look out for further collaborations alongside ASC, Joe Seven and Cern
