After a 15-year career the Freestylers have covered a full 360 degrees in the bass music genre, having played all the biggest festivals and most talked about nightclubs around the world, even the quintessentially British music show, Top of The Pops. With their first four artist albums "We Rock Hard", "Pressure Point", "Raw as F**k" and "Adventures in Freestyle" notched tightly to their belt, the duo was voted Best Band by Music Magazine, toured with Lenny Kravitz on his American Woman tour, rocked a crowd of 30,000 at Glastonbury Festival 1999, performed at MTV's Times Square Millenium Party and played Big Day Out 2005 - it is clear that these guys have had one big adventure so far. Through early tracks like "B-Boy Stance", "Ruffneck" and "Warning", their music progressed to seminal tunes like "Punks", "Boom Blast", "Fasten Your Seat-Belts", "Painkiller" and more recently "Cracks", "Frozen", recorded with Joshua Steele a.k.a. Flux Pavillion and "Over You", which featured Ami Carmine. In addition to their status as underground heroes, they have gained commercial success with their huge global hit "Push Up" and have had their music featured in TV and film, including the hugely successful comedy film Zoolander. And now, after two years in the studio, it's fair to say Matt Cantor and Aston Harvey are about to launch a veritable assault on the music scene with their new album "The Coming Storm". Opening with the Illaman and Serocee backed "Ignite", the Freestylers move to the radio friendly "Yours To Waste" with Irwin Sparks. Followed by the speedgarage-esque "Falling" featuring Laura Steel, we proceed with the title track, taking the fusion of dub and jungle to another level - being a collaboration with Stereo:Type and featuring the moody and melodic vocals of Takura (of Flashing Lights/Chase and Status fame) it truly stands for the Freestylers sound for the new era.
