Review by Bjørn Steinar Espeland

Album Review: Quart Sector 3 by A Sides – A Drum n Bass Journey Worth Remembering Released in 2016 under Eastside Records, Quart Sector 3 is a standout effort in the UK electronic music scene. The album showcases A Sides’ knack for crafting intricate Drum n Bass beats with an emotional depth that lingers long after the last track fades. With credits including mastering by Beau and striking artwork from Gino Greganti, this project feels meticulously put together—a testament to both creativity and teamwork. The album's strength lies in its diversity. Tracks like "Legacy (feat. Cool Hand Flex)" and "Electric" immediately grab attention, each offering something distinct yet unmistakably tied to A Sides' signature style. Let’s dive into these two tracks because they’re the ones I can’t shake off. “Legacy (feat. Cool Hand Flex)” hits hard right out of the gate. It’s one of those tunes where the vocals blend seamlessly with the frenetic energy of the production. Cool Hand Flex brings a raw edge to the lyrics, while A Sides layers complex rhythms underneath. What makes it memorable isn’t just the technical brilliance but how it feels alive—like it has a heartbeat of its own. You don’t just listen to it; you experience it. Then there’s “Electric,” which flips the vibe entirely. This track is sleek, almost hypnotic, with shimmering synths that feel like neon lights reflected on wet pavement. When Daz jumps in on the featured version, his contribution adds another layer of grit, making it even more captivating. It’s the kind of song that sticks with you—not necessarily because it’s flashy, but because it sneaks up on you when you least expect it. Other tracks like “Vortex” and “Dreamworld” round out the album nicely, though they don’t quite leave as lasting an impression as the aforementioned standouts. Still, they contribute to the overall flow, ensuring the listener stays engaged throughout. One thing worth noting is the cohesion here—it doesn’t feel like a random collection of songs slapped together. Every element, from the writing to the mastering, serves a purpose. That said, some might argue the pacing could use a tweak here and there, especially during slower moments. But honestly? Those minor hiccups barely detract from the bigger picture. Reflecting on Quart Sector 3, what strikes me most is how timeless it feels despite being released years ago. In a genre often dominated by fleeting trends, A Sides manages to create something that still resonates today. And maybe that’s the unexpected beauty of this album—it reminds us that great music doesn’t need to shout to be heard. Final thought? If you’re into Drum n Bass or just looking for something fresh yet familiar, give this one a spin. Just don’t blame me if “Legacy” gets stuck in your head for days.

Date of Birth: 27th January 1970 Hip Hop, Electro, Soul, Funk, Reggae and Rock, and each and every one of these styles influenced his mind for the future. In 1992, Jason began to release his own material and go raving to hear his stuff being played out. Whilst at Roller Express one night, he met Ola from The Stage One Music Company and a year later, Ola started distributing Jason's records. As time went on, Jason and Ola decided to set up a record label together, Calling it 'Boombastic Plastic, Jason would release records under the name 'Citadel of Kaos', which was made up of Jason, Jan Salisbury and Simon from Earth Leakage Trip. 'Citadel of Kaos' eventually became just Jan with another guy called George Jones. A-sides also had shows on the pirate stations Unity FM & Conflict FM. 'Sunshine Productions' tunes such as 'Above the Clouds' and 'Symphony In September' were part of Jason's long list of successful Rave anthems released on 'Just Another Label' (JAL). He still felt he had to push himself in other musical directions. Jason wanted to start up his very own label. "I can't stand people who knock other people or just want to jump on the bandwagon. Anyone with a negative attitude does my head in
