Play Me Records is the brainchild of our girl Reid Speed and Mark Subsonik of Drum & Bass imprint, Subsonik Sound. The two first met through drum & bass but teamed up over a shared love of slick pop hooks, twisted drum programming and phat nasty subs. Now, they are proud to bring a battalion of fresh artists forth to slaughter turntables the world over, beginning with PLAY ME 001.

This first release features Canadian hipster phenoms Supercycle on the A with “The Dead Walk“, a sweet romp through a graveyard. It chugs with bone grinding bass and 80′s synth accents, complemented by angelic pads and plucky electro- guitar riffs.

The AA, “No Tomorrow“, comes live and direct from the city of angels’ After Midnight. Their unique brand of electro is heavy and synth driven, with just a touch of pop vocal styling to keep it sweet.

PLAY ME 001 is available June 1st worldwide via your favorite digital outlet. Cop that shit!

Reid Speed, Subsonik, Supercycle and After Midnight have all previsouly been showcased on Media Contender. Have a listen to some of their past bits.
