4Hero (The Aliases) Essentials

The 4hero name is synonymous with innovative drum 'n' bass and broken beat tracks. But since establishing their formula in the '90s, London's Dego and Marc Mac have also amassed a reputation for releasing diverse sounds under a slew of aliases, whether together or on solo missions. This collection rounds up the footnotes of their discography, including dreamy soundscapes recorded as Jacob's Optical Stairway, ferocious jungle workouts as Manix and mid-'90s hip-hop tributes as the Visioneers.
