Advisory Records, a label very familiar to most drum & bass fanatics, has been big in the game since it was first established in 1996. Through the years Advisory has seen the scene change and grow, with releases from many huge names including Mutated Forms, Cubist, Generator, DJ Daze, Iron Hands, Tripwire and the man behind the label Sappo.

Sappo, born and bread in Manchester, has been DJ'ing since the early age of 15. He is considered by many a true veteran of the dnb scene. He has sold over 250,000 records with releases on labels such as V Recordings, Emotive, World Dance, Flex and Formation, Rinse Out, Frontline and, of course, Advisory Records and hosted the only 4 hour national drum and bass show on the world famous 1Xtra.

After being a major influence in the scene for such a long time, it was only right that Sappo should release an LP showcasing some of the sounds of Advisory Records over the 11 successful years it's had so far and here it is; the hugely awaited Sound Advice LP.

We're treated to 11 tracks here, with some pretty tasty remixes by the likes of Serum, Dawn Raid and Rowney, as well as some old skool classics (Deception, Bristol Beat) and some liquid rollers (Bonita).

Sappo really shows his versatility as a dnb producer on this LP, starting off with his drumstep remix of the all time classic, and first release for Advisory back in 1999, Tickatock Bass. Featuring Trigga, a huge drop and an absolutely filthy bassline, this definitely a  jump-up anthem. Skip towards the end of the LP though and we get to Sappo's new tune, Bonita. This is a really funky, liquid roller, completely the opposite to the sound we're usually used to from Sappo. This melodic tune still has enough weight to smash dancefloors across the country.



Checking out the remixes, Serum steps up first with his take on Tickatock Bass. Much like many other Serum tunes, he's kept this remix nice and simple, it's all about the bass really, with a fat 'wah' bass dominating the tracks complemented by Trigga's vocals.

Rowney takes over remix duties for Sappo's One More Try. This one's a bit of a skanker, with the cut up vocals being driven by some simple, but huge drums and a wobbly 'Rowney' bassline adding the weight.

Sound Advice displays the way the scene has progressed and grown, changing throughout the years. This 11 tracker has something for everyone in it, whether your into the old skool classics, jump-up wobblers, liquid rollers or newer styles such as drumstep.
