Artist description Leaning more to the Drum & bass style these lads generate something new. F8 rock the floor with attitude and innovation. Earmarked by Goldie as one to watch, they are something special to get your teeth into. It's been a long time since such contrasting music was developed, the edgey sounds of Bristol meld well into that east UK DnB scene with flawless effort. If you're looking for trouble, you just found it. Please extinguish your cigarette, and return your seats to their upright positions. Welcome to - F8 -

Press Reviews Goldie said of 'Long Time Coming' - "F8 takes it back to the old skool style, reminiscent of early Bukem work. The smooth fade up intro works well to set the tone for this fine example of minimal drum and bass production. F8 use crisp rolling percussion along side some earthy fx, deep moody bass lines and well timed breaks that all gel together tightly to create a well balanced recording. The use of some erie vocal samples adds a deeper dimension to the sound, without overloading the mix and taking away from the simple groove. This one's a roller and I hope to hear more from F8 in the future." Knowledge Mag review of 'Skyrise Tracing' ".. is an Amen Roller with superb vocals."
