You may have noticed we’ve just launched our brand spanking new website!

All our releases are now fully streamable, every track from every album, so you can be sure you’re spending your hard-earned bandwidth on quality music.

This has been a more frantic effort than most DC projects, due to work/life commitments (yawn). Please send any bug reports, problems (or glittering praise)  to ant-at-smoothandfresh-dot-com.

Our good friend Sal Volatile has been locked away in deepest darkest Midlands fusing Brummie Electro and Techno with the futuristic sounds of Dubstep and Grime to make a thoroughly pleasing cocktail.

Add Mr. Volatile to your ‘ones to check in 2009’ list now…
