DJ Hatcha - Hatched 10 - OUT NOW!






From his humble beginnings in Dubstep’s cultural hub, Croydon based DJ

Hatcha has nurtured the genre from its outset. Standing as one of the

founding forefathers, he’s helped shaped the scene following its explosion in

the early 2000’s. His influence has spanned over a decade and this hasn’t

gone unnoticed throughout Dubstep’s history. Hatcha’s seminal Kiss and

Rinse FM shows pushed Dubstep onto the agenda’s forefront, cementing its

relevance within the UK’s melting hub of sub-culture, whilst further pushing it

onto the mainstage at events across the country. He’s personally

responsible for its resounding success, ensuring its longevity whilst

showcasing some of their finest producers.


And after eight years of pedestalling its most important breakthrough acts,

Hatcha returns with an EP set to send shockwaves across the community.

Being heralded by both Mixmag and DJ Mag alike as a leading pioneer, these

next five cuts of sonic aptitude epitomise why he’s so highly esteemed. The

spotlight is about to be turned on him once again and he’s leading the charge.

Diving head first into the murky, growling undertones Hatcha reigns

supreme over, the producer demonstrates exactly why he’s king of the

underground. Breaking out of every paradigm set up for electronic music,

Hatcha is unafraid to step out of its boundaries. Unclassifiable, yet floaty and

still technically flawless, first track ‘Going in’, which features the darkly

rooted production prowess of Abstrakt Sonance and is a re-entry into

Hatcha’s immersive style: minimal whilst still being able to take complete

control of your aural synapses.





Tribal, unforgiving and layered amongst crunchy drum textures, next track 

‘Bawl Out’ is packed with industrial heat. It’s gloomy, eerily foreboding but 

certainly set to rumble every sub in clubs across the country. An artist 

who’s completely at one with his own musical personality, his ideas shine 

through with every wave of sound pattern. This is especially prevalent during 

track ‘I&I’, another subversive rocker that’ll hold you with its sophisticated 

groove and waif like vocal sample. Setting a much difference tone, but still 

instantly recognizable by his stylistic features, Hatcha commands a 

technique like no other.


‘Blessed’ creates something more brooding, wavering between snapping 

percussion and meandering beats. Mean spirited, yet still ambling from each 

drum kick and creating a dystopian feel, Hatcha again conjures an 

atmosphere difficult to separate yourself from. Abstrackt Sonance makes 

another appearance on final piece ‘Breaking & Entering’, once again bringing 

together two masterminds for a reckoning of 140bpm… The perfect way to 

wrap up Hatcha’s most withstanding records to date.


Each track channels a history which shines through the entire EP’s growling 

demeanor… heightened by a sense of antiquity and a producer’s genre 

omnipresence. The return of dubstep is neigh, with Hatcha standing at the 

helm just like before.
