  • "I bring things to the night [FABRICLIVE] that they don't get from the more established DJs; I've got an up-front street sound that no-one else really plays. It's good to know that I'm bringing in a different sound and vibe to the club. I'm in the studio at the moment, and getting the results out on my own label is the target." comments Joe Ransom, the next of Fabric residents to deliver a compilation. Joe Ransom, who is a proper British DJ, promoter, producer and label owner, has been jacked into the underground urban music scene from his early days in love with the hip-hop scene from Bristol. He moved to London to take things to the next level and in doing so has worked hard playing everywhere from his friends little parties and small clubs gigs to where he is now, a key in the Fabric's Friday night puzzle as well as touring parts of the world with artists like the Plump DJs, Zinc, and Basement Jaxx and playing at many London's clubnights. A raw fusion of Hip Hop, Breaks, Dnb, and other underground sounds make up a good part of what is featured on Ransom's FABRICLIVE compilation, the 20th in the series. The release date for fabric subscribers is 07/02/05, the international retail release (excluding the USA) is the following week, 14/02/05 and the USA will be taking it in stores from 29/03/05.

    The excitement levels for Fabric's Record Label are at a high with Digweed on the upcoming Fabric20 CD (with much talk about it in the RA forums). Things look to keep things going and it will be great to hear the final result of Ransom's Fabric LIVE compilation.
