WhineyÕs underground drum & bass flare has flourished since signing exclusively to Med School. Now heÕs set and ready to present his incredible debut album ÔTalismanÕ - a symbol of his dedication to D+B with a strong 12-track collection of dancefloor weapons. The hard-hitting album opener ÔTalismanÕ sets the pace with epic musicality, industrial bleeps and fat, meaty basslines. Matching up with the heavyweight business are ÔArchiveÕ and ÔRock HopperÕ. Plus ÔMinds CollideÕ canÕt be missed Ð a middle-eastern influenced half-time stepper that matches up with the exuding attitude of ÔPortalÕ that's already received support from neuro giants Noisia. WhineyÕs joined forces with HospitalÕs Brazilian mastermind on ÔSun KissedÕ, balancing choppy vocal snippets with UrbandawnÕs signature percussions and growling subs. Turning to melancholic movements is ÔThe Farthest ShoreÕ and ÔNever Too LongÕ the latter a collaboration with long-term label mate Keeno and lead by a strong vocal topline from Whiney himself. A final collaborative effort comes from Med SchoolÕs resident MC Inja whoÕs brought his lyrical genius to WhineyÕs deep roller ÔFlashlightÕ.
