New exclusive addition - Red One
We're very pleased to announce the exclusive addition to the Reprise roster of one of the true multi-talents in the drum&bass movement - Red One. Label manager of the legendary Ram Records, producer, promoter and DJ - he's one of the most successful and consistent around, as well as always being one step ahead of the game. We are now representing Red One for bookings worldwide (except North America).

New exclusive addition - Loxy
One of the original jedis of the d&b movement is now a member of the Reprise roster. Loxy's been representing with the likes of Metalheadz, Renegade Hardware and his own Cylon and Horsemen projects for well over a decade. Known for a unique selection and killer mixing skills, his production has also come to the fore, particularly with forthcoming cuts for Critical and Digital Soundboy. We are now representing Loxy for bookings worldwide (excluding North America).

New exclusive addition - Icicle
Anyone who's been listening to drum&bass over the last 12 months will have almost definitely have been exposed to the sounds of Icicle. Hailing from Eindhoven in the Netherlands, Icicle's productions have been catching the ears of DJs including Friction, Goldie, Fabio, Marcus Intalex and many more. The man himself is also a vastly experienced DJ, regularly playing across his homeland and the rest of Europe. We are now representing Icicle exclusively for bookings worldwide.

New exclusive addition - SKC
The Reprise movement across Europe continues apace with us joining forces with a key part of The Future Sound of Budapest. SKC has released tracks for the likes of Commercial Suicide, Hospital, Renegade Hardware and Timeless, and is constantly DJing across Europe, pushing the sound of Tactile, Mindscape and his own solo productions.
With a series of killer releases forthcoming, including a remix of the classic 'Code' for Renegade Hardware, plus 'The World Has Changed' for Klute's Commercial Suicide imprint, 2008 is looking very bright for the man from Budapest.
We are now representing SKC exclusively for bookings worldwide.

New exclusive addition - MC I.D.
Our final addition to the roster is a rapidly up-coming MC from Brighton who we've been watching for some time.
I.D. is already holding down residencies for Hospitality, Shogun Audio and Renegade Hardware, working with the creme de la creme including Loxy & Ink, Logistics and Shogun's lead man DJ Friction. With a crisp and precise style, and the knack of knowing just when's right to let the music roll, we're pleased to announce we're representing I.D. exclusively for bookings worldwide.
