Back in the days when drum'n bass - or 'Jungle' as it was then called - was synonymous with stylistic innovation in electronic music, Reinforced was unmatched in its field. Founded by
4hero in 1990, the label started out with 'hardcore' breakbeats, and gradually shaped the style into the modern drum'n bass sound we still know today. Most major artists of the time have at some point released on Reinforced - from
Goldie to
Grooverider or
Rufige Kru - and with its digital re-issue, Reinforced finally becomes a label to treasure and rediscover.
