Editorial Reviews

Truly a prodigy in every sense of the word, young Jamie Spratling, aka J Majik was uninspired by his school classes at the time and as a result turned to DJ-ing as a source of entertainment. He soon found himself pumping out pulse quickening break beat anthems at the tender age of 14 for Lemon D’s well respected Planet Earth imprint. A short year or two later found "Majik" with a handful of highly lauded underground smashes and as the youngest star in the world reknowned Metalheadz crew! His own imprint "Infrared" is a key component of the ever evolving drum and bass scene and has released jems by the genres biggest names including Goldie, Photek, John B., and Total Science.

Now, Fabric Recordings proudly presents J Majik Fabriclive 13; a beautifully mixed, diverse foray into drum and bass. A wild, futuristic ride taken at break-neck speed, Fabriclive 13 showcases the skills and many sides of one of drum n bass’s most loved stalwarts. Featuring tracks from the the scene’s best and brightest including DJ Hype, Dillinja, and Peshay. Fabriclive 13 should not be missed. Get ready for the rewind!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best Drum and Bass Mixes Ever, December 21, 2007

DJ Majik's Fabric set is warped, high-energy from start to finish, but in terms of BPM's, it's not all that fast. It is, however, one of the very best put together DnB dance mixes I've ever heard (Grooverider's Fabriclive set being the other). Unbelievably perfect for dancing or driving at very high speeds. The combination of Twisted Individual's amazing "Bandwagon Blues" and J Majik's "Feel the Music" to end the set is the most perfect closing to a dance mix I've ever heard. If you only own one Drum and Bass album, this should probably be it.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is why J Majik has his own label..., February 20, 2007

And its called "Infared" for those who don't know. Interestingly enough, I found this in the used electonica bin at my local record store. As I didn't have any of the "Fabric" mixes, I figured its definately worth my cash. As Fabric is one of the largest Drum N' Bass clubs in London, it has also been around a long time and has alot of history...

And boy, does J Majik tear this mix apart! The beginning High Hopes mix with the Tali vocals send this mix into high gear. From there, its typical rollers and liquid tracks, until the mix gets to "Capoeira", which, I must say is an amazing track. At that point, you know its about the get ugly...

Then, at the Peshay "Jammin" track mix into the Fresh remix of Cuban Links, its all OVER! The next tracks, until the end of the CD make the entire mix. I actually went and ordered the Fresh remix of Cuban Links THE DAY I HEARD IT. Almost worth getting the CD just for that song. The John B remix of "Pressure" is just as ill...that is, if you like your tracks hard, rough, and built with enough bass to kill a small amount of braincells.

Bottom Line: Most accurate portrayl of where the liquid sound was in 2003, with a few amen and rollers for flavor. Great mix!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not bad, but not spectacular., September 30, 2008

OK, so I read on here that some thought this was the best FabricLive mix, drum-and-bass-wise... while J Majik is a legend of the scene, still an awesome producer, and a dancefloor-conscious DJ, I wouldn't go so far as to say this mix is awesome... because it isn't. Of course, that's just my opinion. I think the High Contrast and Marcus Intalex FabricLive CDs are far better, not only in the selection, but the presentation of the tracks. No disrespect to Jamie at all, because it's a very high energy selection, and if that's your thing, great. You'll absolutely love this CD. Drum and bass has also made progress since the timing of this recording. All in all, a good CD for those who can appreciate drum and bass, but this wouldn't be a CD I would use to introduce someone to drum and bass. 'Nuff said.
