The seminal second album from Rene LaVice shows a commitment not only to musical diversity, but also his chartered growth as an artist. One of the most creatively unique journeys that any LP has offered from the Ram Records camp, it pedestals music which has been present throughout sets from the past year. Whether that's been on the stages of Las Vegas' EDC, championed by revered label head Andy C, or at Download Festival, Glastonbury and during support slots for The Prodigy by Rene himself, there are stand out tracks which fans have already been made familiar with on dancefloors across the globe. And the wait for their release has been met with baited breath.

Already hitting airwaves with debut album 'Insidious', which received Radio1 airplay from Annie Mac, Nick Grimshaw and Mistajam, the follow up has received support from the likes of Beats1 mogul Zane Lowe and MTV. 'The Calling' found itself nestled on Radio1's daytime playlists, whilst rock-inspired 'Part of Me' was premiered on iTunes biggest streaming platform.

From the slamming 808s of the aptly named 'Fook it', to the indie, vocal lead crescendos of 'Wave', Rene clearly smashes a prototype throughout the LP's entirety. You're also reintroduced to Radio1 A-list record 'The Calling', as well as dancefloor detonator 'Air Force One' and an array of other singles which have set the album's precedent. Plenty of fresh new cuts add to the impressive track listing, with opening track 'Lights Outs' featuring the rasp of David Boomah and clunking reece bass, whilst album closer 'Riot All Right' ends on Rene's own signature voice notes.

Merging together so many stylistic features, taken from an array of influences, this album presents a multi-levelled approach to music making, drawing not just from electronic music but also genres celebrated worldwide. 'Play with Fire' will stand as one of the most pivotal release in not only Rene's discography, but also across drum & bass as a whole… A ground breaking set of records which prove the genre's development, from the jungle breaks of the 90's, to its adaption to the contemporary world.

All these songs being posted on Rene lavice, this is my favorite by him so far.

He hasn't stopped making DnB - when you listen to the music itself you can actually see something of a phenomenon especially if it comes from the greatest music genre of all time called DrumAndBass. This only proves that one of the greatest DrumAndBass artists ever can make a different genre turn into something like never before - and that's a true prodigious phenomenon.

This is my first look at Ram Records Youtube channel, and i get this? I've checked they're Spotify account in the past, so i know they have good tracks. This isn't bad, but not in my taste.

are you guys bloody stupid, one thing we hopefully agree on is being a DJ is about the music you feel inside you at the moment your fingers touch the pad for a good beat and vocals especially Rene la vice has been my favourite for years and years this has just shown he can make diverse tune in, tune out your choice ladies?

All for being experimental and forward thinking, but none of these tracks seem to suit Ram as a label, hence why alot of the album is not being well recieved
