Total Science – Let It Go / Flip Flop
Total Science – Let It Go / Flip Flop
Released in 2008 on Hospital Records, Let It Go / Flip Flop brings together two standout Total Science productions from the label's influential Classic Symptoms series. Catalogue number NHSCS 002, this 12" pairs "Let It Go" with "Flip Flop", showcasing the duo's sophisticated approach to drum & bass, where rolling breaks, deep basslines, soulful textures and classic jungle influences meet polished late-2000s production. The release reached No. 20 on the UK Independent Singles Chart.
"Let It Go" is a deep, rolling piece of drum & bass with a strong old-school flavour, balancing warm bass with crisp breakbeats and a distinctly soulful atmosphere. The track later became part of Hospital Records' Plastic Surgery catalogue, with the label continuing to regard it as an important example of the deep, bass-driven sound running through Total Science's work.
On the flip, "Flip Flop" delivers a more energetic and playful take on the Total Science sound. The track was already well established in the drum & bass scene before this 2008 pressing, with Fabio noted as having played it heavily in his sets. Its combination of rolling rhythm, weighty bass and classic jungle sensibilities helped make it one of the more memorable tracks associated with the Classic Symptoms series.
Total Science are the production partnership of Jason Greenhalgh and Paul Smith, long-standing figures in the British drum & bass scene whose work has consistently moved between jungle, techstep, liquid and deeper forms of D&B. Their connection with Hospital Records has been particularly significant, with "Let It Go" and "Flip Flop" subsequently appearing in the label's retrospective Plastic Surgery – Final Reconstruction programme, underlining their importance to Hospital's wider musical history.
For collectors of Hospital Records, Total Science, classic 2000s drum & bass and jungle-influenced vinyl, Let It Go / Flip Flop is an excellent two-track release. It captures a period when Hospital was looking back towards the roots of drum & bass while pushing the genre forward, making this a strong choice for DJs and collectors looking for deep, rolling and timeless D&B rather than purely dancefloor-focused productions.
